Cape Town, South Africa
Nestled at the foot of Table Mountain and flanked by Devil’s Peak and Lion’s Head, Cape Town is known by South Africans simply as ‘the Cape,’ an acknowledgment of its uniqueness and its status as the Mother City. The first area to be settled by Europeans in the 17th century, it is today a major seaport and the legislative capital of South Africa. The feeling here is not African but cosmopolitan, and a sense of history remains. The oldest existing building is the Castle of Good Hope, dating from 1697. Around its gardens are located the most important cultural and historic buildings of the city. -by Seabourn.com
The Segment 2 itinerary includes stops in Port Elizabeth, South Africa; Durban, South Africa; Maputo, Mozambique; Pointe Des Galets, Reunion; Port Louis, Mauritius; Male, Maldives; Colombo, Sri Lanka; Penang, Malaysia; and Singapore. Guests will also spend several days cruising the Indian Ocean.
South Africa cruises may be part of a larger itinerary, which means, guests may travel aboard say, Holland America Line, then transfer to a smaller ship during a several day stay in port. In these cases, you may choose from an adventure cruise, river cruises, nature cruise, sailing cruises, and more.
