Cape Town and International Convention Centre
Affectionately known as the Mother City, Cape Town is South Africa's oldest city. Founded in 1652 by Jan van Riebeeck and his band of Dutch settlers, Cape Town is rated as one of the most beautiful cities in the world - the backdrop of flat-topped Table Mountain juxtaposed by the sweep of the Atlantic Ocean in the foreground.

Cape Town has a relaxed atmosphere and offers visitors a host of outdoor leisure activities, as well as all the amenities of a world-class city at the sea. Top attractions include catching the cable-car up Table Mountain to enjoy a panorama of the city and peninsula, taking a ferry to historic Robben Island, drinking tea at Kirstenbosch National Botanical Gardens and visiting the Castle of Good Hope. For outdoor lovers, the Cape of Good Hope, adorned in delicate indigenous fynbos, affords spectacular views over two oceans in all directions and there are numerous hikes and trails all around Cape Town for energetic visitors. The Two Oceans Aquarium will give you a glimpse of marine life along the coastline.

The Cape Town International Convention Centre is conveniently located within walking distance of the city's central business district, its transport infrastructure and many of its major tourist and environment attractions:

• Cape Town International Airport (20 minute drive)
• The Victoria & Alfred Waterfront (10 minute walk)
• Houses of Parliament (15 minute walk)
