Day 2 ~ Milnerton Golf Club (18 holes, Par 72, 5788 metres)
After a night of rest and recuperation, travel to Milnerton Golf Club and play the only true 'Links' course in South Africa. Set in a beautiful location on the shores of Table Bay with Table Mountain and the ocean as constant backdrops, which is enough to take the mind off any round that is not quite up to scratch.

Day 5 ~ Non-Golfing Day - Suggested Sightseeing: City Tour and V&A Waterfront
In the morning, perhaps embark on a city orientation tour, including a stroll around the Company (Dutch East India) Gardens, the historical centre of the "mother city", and visit the nearby craft market on Greenmarket Square. Visit the Muslim Bo-Kaap area on the slopes of Signal Hill before driving to the top for the scenic views over the city and Table Bay. In the afternoon, take the opportunity to explore the fantastic V&A Waterfront. This working harbour and shopping/entertainment development has become Cape Town's and South Africa's best visited tourist attraction.

Day 8 ~ Non-Golfing Day - Suggested Sightseeing: Robben Island and Kirstenbosch Gardens
Take the boat across from Table Bay to Robben Island, and take a conducted tour of this former prison island, including listening to the experiences of a former political prisoner, as well as viewing the cell where Nelson Mandela was imprisoned. In the afternoon, perhaps spend a pleasant few hours wandering around the internationally renowned Kirstenbosch National Botanical Gardens, situated on the slopes of Table Mountain, and forming part of the estate of Cecil John Rhodes. This enormous area which comprises beautifully manicured gardens, natural, unspoiled walks on the forested mountain slopes, and over 8000 different plant species, deserves more than a mere passing visit. Complete with an informative visitors centre, it is no wonder that Kirstenbosch Gardens consistently appears in the top 10 attractions in South Africa.

In the morning play a round of golf at the well laid out suburban course of Mowbray Golf Club, which has one of the most picturesque par 4's in the world, according to Gary Player!

Showcasing more than 200 local and international estates, the Spier Wine Centre is a haven for wine-lovers. Spier has also made land availiable to a group of hand raised cheetahs in the care of the Cheetah Outreach Programme.
