| Backpacking in Cape Town - Probably the biggest attraction for backpackers is that it's damn cheap - South Africa is still a bargain. This is a boon for those travellers who want an active holiday. Over the past few years, Cape Town has established itself as an adrenalin junkie's paradise but it's not just the cost that attracts visitors. The fact that the activities are relatively concentrated means you can mountain bike in the morning, scuba dive in the afternoon and kayak through seal colonies as the sun goes down. Cape Town has more backpackers hostels than any other city worldwide.
The bas bus was designed for the independent travellers - a unique hop-on/hop-off, door-to-door, bus service between the backpacking hostels around Southern Africa. Simply buy one ticket to your final destination and you can get on and off as many times as you want, wherever you want, with no time limit. |
