“Winter can be cold and dull but this is not at all the case at Kirstenbosch. The garden is full of life and colour with many gloriously clear, sunny days to enjoy. Winter Wonders at Kirstenbosch is a great opportunity for families to explore the most beautiful garden in Africa and learn about its magnificent indigenous flora”, says Sarah Struys, Events and Tourism Manager at Kirstenbosch National Botanical Garden.

ONE DESTINATION, SIX UNFORGETTABLE EXPERIENCES
There is no one way to explore all of the Cape Town Big 6, and much of what makes each of them so special is the variety of things to see and do at each. So if possible, take your time to explore each of the city’s most visited tourist attractions in as much depth as possible – as any local will tell you, you can spend a lifetime at each of the Big 6 and still not tire of them. Find the 3 and 4 day itineraries and tips here.
