Tips from the community
Visiting Cape Town on a budget almost feels like a feat that’s too good to be true. Perfectly nestled in between the mountains and the ocean, Cape Town is, without question, South Africa’s finest metropolitan city. Whether you’re looking to relax on luxurious beaches, experience one of the new Seven Wonders of the World, or sip some of the finest wines in Africa, you can do it all without breaking the bank.
Getting to Cape Town will undoubtedly be your most costly expense, but beyond the airfare you can revel in affordable Airbnb rates, modestly-priced world-class eats, and cheap admission rates to museums, day tours, and many popular tourist attractions.
