0115 9404 303School Cricket trip to Cape town, sport
A fantastic opportunity to combine Cricket training with travel! Play against local teams and train abroad, while also visiting this amazing city dominated by the impressive and beautiful World Heritage Site of Table Mountain. Go to the summit by cable car with rotating floor to ensure stunning 360-degree aerial views of the city. Cape Town is also a place of great cultural and historic heritage and there are plenty of museums, art galleries and places of historic interest to visit. Don’t miss Robben Island, just 12 km from Cape Town, where for nearly 400 years rulers sent those they regarded as political troublemakers and social outcasts. It was a place of banishment, isolation and imprisonment and was where Nelson Mandela spent most of his years in prison. Cape Town is a diverse city, which offers something for everyone, from the bright lights to stunning natural beauty and wildlife. Sport is a very big part of the lifestyle in Cape Town, so there are many opportunities to try out a number of both water and land sports.
