A harbour cruise of Cape Town’s iconic waterfront offers panoramic views of the city and Table Mountain behind. The newest cruise departs from in front of the V&A aquarium, and is 30 minutes long, so can easily be combined with a hop-on hop-off bus tour of the city, or a meal down in the waterfront area. Headphone commentary informs you of the local history, and the boat is an attraction in itself to the curious seal population, so be prepared for some close up sightings.
