Robben Island

Robben Island Cape Town City Guide SilverKris

Tour the island and prison that famously held Nelson Mandela (and other anti-apartheid activists) captive, with daily ferries from the Waterfront. As a form of reconciliation, tours are led by former inmates, providing an insightful glimpse into this painful period of South African history. Fortunate tourists may also spot some penguins.
