Cape Town is the Mecca of good times in South Africa. The Mother City has so much to offer in terms of accommodation with BookNow.co.za and a little something to do for everyone. While Easter weekends bring out the joy in all of us, whether it be spending quality time with family, enjoying the extra long weekend or hunting and devouring all the delicious chocolate.
Housing a multitude of different geographical settings with different lifestyles, Cape Town provides diversity that is not seen anywhere else in South Africa.
Cape Town sight-seeing has some astounding specials for happenings during this special time of year. Indulge in decorating cookies and wine tasting at the Spier Wine Farm. Throughout the weekend, your kiddies can participate in a complimentary cookie-decorating session, while parents enjoy world-class wine tasting. Or you can opt for a 3-course meal on Easter Sunday at the Vadas Smokehouse and Bakery while the kiddies enjoy a scavenger hunt for a fun Easter prize.
If you are more of the athlete type, not to worry, Cape Town is known to host epic marathons. Take part in any one of the marathons that tickle your fancy during your getaway. Brave the waters and run the well-known Bastille Day route, for the Easter Festival Swim Run. Energy Events is hosting this festival at Berg River Dam in Franschhoek, where you can enter solo or a team of two. The route involves 4 swims and 4 runs, making it great for newbies or old-timers. Or take part in the classic Two-Oceans Marathon, which is widely known as the world's most beautiful marathon, covering some of Cape Town's spectacular neighbourhoods.
If you are visiting Cape Town to indulge in the beautiful scenery rather than breaking a sweat then do not hesitate to visit this market in Somerset West. Soak up the sun and let the kiddies roam around the gorgeous lawns at Lourensford Wine Estate. Taste some award-winning wines, quench your need for decadent delights or browse through the vendors' crafts and artisanal produce. Or pop by the amazing newly-renovated Root44 Market in Stellenbosch. This stylish indoor and outdoor market is surrounded by vineyards and trees. Expect live entertainment as well as an awesome selection of food, craft drinks and fresh produce.
