Cape Town is situated at the south-western tip of the African continent and it is called the City of Table Mountain because the whole area it’s defined and dominated by it. Robben Island, the beautiful Kirstenbosch Gardens and the spectacular Cape Point, its gorgeous assets, are making this place magical. Tourists are free to walk its streets, meet its people and fall in love with Cape Town, with its District Six Museum or Castle of Good Hope, enjoying the good weather and the outdoor lifestyle.
Cape Town the City of Table Mountain it’s an ideal holiday destination with plenty to see and do either in summer or winter. Cape Town has to offer a wonderful setting for panoramic vistas and magnificent seascapes, being one of the world’s most iconic cities.
Cape Town is surrounded by numerous beaches, Clifton for example is one of the most known. The waters of the Atlantic Ocean are not particularly warm but they are a heaven for surfers, windsurfers and kite-boarders. It’s easy to get to Clifton Beach as it’s near the Lion’s Head promontory. This is another prominent feature you can see from down in Cape Town. It was named Lion’s Head because its shape resembles a crouching lion or a sphinx. It’s worth walking to the top of it for some spectacular views.
You might want to drive to Gansbaai near Hermanus and then onto Dyer Island where you can surface view, snorkel or scuba dive (scuba dive certificate required) here, where the great white shark in its natural environment! All the necessary equipment would be provided.
The peak summer season is generally during between mid-December and early January. But many tourists prefer the hot months of February and March. Anyway, the sunset’s lovers should come in April to contemplate spectacular views, when the light is softer and the temperatures are balmy.
The best time of year to explore the slopes of Table Mountain on foot is between May and July, when the temperate winter starts. Also if you want to witness the best land-based whale-watching in the world, you’ll be able to do this until November. This is the time when the southern right whales migrate to calve and nurse.
No matter when you chose to visit Cape Town you should know that your vacation wouldn’t be complete without a cable-car trip up Table Mountain. The cable-car rotates 360º during the ascent, and once at the top is offering you fantastic views of the city.
A signifying part of the port area has been redeveloped into The Victoria & Alfred Waterfront, which has become a symbol of the new South Africa and has a huge variety of shops, restaurants and entertainment opportunities. This place is also the main departure point for visits to Robben Island, where Nelson Mandela was incarcerated and where you can take a tour of the prison and the cell left exactly as it was.
Given the above, it would be highly recommended to hire a car for a few days, if not for the whole duration of your stay. This can be arranged from Cape Town International Airport before you arrive. You’d be happy to know that the road infrastructure is excellent and road signs are of the highest international standards. Road rules include driving on the left side of the road (are identical to UK), the traffic outside of rush hour is relatively uncongested, parking is easy and even Table Mountain is helping because the ever-present mountain is a great aid to navigation.

One of the largest suppliers of rental cars in the UK, Sixt have recently changed their policies when it comes to hiring a car if you are under 25.
For a while now we have had a brilliant arrangement with them which meant our customers aged 23 & 24 could hire from any Sixt location without a young driver surcharge. People of 21 & 22 years of age could also rent a vehicle but there was a pretty hefty fee of £30 per day.
The Sixt young driver fees in the UK have changed which impacts drivers under 25 & means that although you can still hire a vehicle, anyone aged 21-24 will be liable for the daily charge which has increased from £30 to £36 per day.
This will mean a weeks rental for example will be £252 on top of the price of the rental itself.
Sixt are not the only supplier in the UK that offer car hire services for young drivers, we have other suppliers dotted around the country that will allow people as young as 21 to hire a car, and although there is a daily surcharge for anyone under 25, it is nowhere near as expensive as the fee mentioned above.
These suppliers also offer other deals which appeal to our younger customers like, low deposits, pay with a debit card and reduced excess amounts.
If you would like more information on the above or are looking to hire a car then please contact one of our experts, we are happy to chat to you online, answer your emails or speak to you direct on the phone on +44 (0)113 880 0748.

Last weekend I got together with my friends and we had the idea to travel to a place we never been before in West Yorkshire. So we start researching the web for local attractions and we found out that nearby there is a small town famous for its beauty and its spa heritage. We were both intrigued and fascinated by the small town of Harrogate the home of flowers and beauty. So we started the preparations for our small journey.
When it comes to travelling in West Yorkshire there are plenty of possibilities: from public transportation system to car hire companies. Getting a car was very easy thanks to my colleagues from Indigo Car Hire and we’ve hit the road in short time.
With a cosmopolitan air, Harrogate is charming enough to steal at least a few days out of your vacation. Welcome to one of the UK’s most beautiful destinations! It’s a place where the old embraces the new, where festivals and traditional village shows blend with conferences and fancy events, bringing to town visitors all the year round. Harrogate Arts and Museums for example, have a fabulous summer events planned, with activities to suit all ages at the Royal Pump Room Museum and the Mercer Art Gallery.
Many come to see Harrogate’s fascinating shops in the Montpellier Quarter for antique treasures, high-end fashion, charming arts & crafts shops and bustling markets, others come to admire the splendid architecture or simply to relax in this “home of flowers and beauty”. Spring is a great time to visit when the flowers come into bloom and the Harrogate Flower Show brightens up the town. Lovers of local delicacies shouldn’t miss the Harrogate Specialty Food Show or the Great Yorkshire Show which take place every July, featuring food stalls, livestock and agriculture from around the region.
As I said, this characterful town is full of interesting attractions. The first thing to notice is that this place is alive! People are everywhere, both tourists and dwellers: on the streets, in the parks, at the beautiful restaurants and cafés or shops. They have plenty of things and places to see, Harrogate being one of Yorkshire’s most elegant destinations with handsome historic buildings and verdant gardens. It’s the perfect place to indulge in an antiques hunt or have lunch at the famous Betty’s tearoom, which was established in Harrogate in 1919, with queues still forming for their afternoon teas.
Discover the garden town of Harrogate and its fascinating spa heritage! You can have a picnic in the floral Valley Gardens or you should visit the luxurious Turkish baths. Harrogate is actually known as the historic spa town in North Yorkshire. It grew from a small village in the 1500’s when a spring at Tewitt Well was discovered to be rich in minerals. It became a popular destination for the rich and famous of Yorkshire and continues till nowadays. So make some time for pure relaxation in steam rooms, pool and a freezing plunge pool for braver visitors.
You could manage until here without a car, because it’s easy to walk between all the sightseeing that Harrogate has to offer. But from now on, discovering the district would demand a car. If you’re a tourist, it’s very handy to rent one, because it would be a great loss to be in Harrogate and don’t step into Knaresborough or Nidderdale, too.
Harrogate District is a great experience for a family holiday or a short break, giving you so many reasons to enjoy and relax in the plenty of green open spaces, atmospheric cafés, fine restaurants and heritage from the cozy towns or would hide you away from the daily bustle in the charming countryside with its luscious meadows.
