English Language School in Cape Town:
Activities and Tours

Once you are here you will certainly not be bored or lonely. We believe that your leisure time should be just as good as your lessons. Our teachers and students often meet after school to get to know each other better. This gives the students the opportunity to practice their English in a relaxed environment. For example, sunset picnics on the beach or up Table Mountain, playing African drums at the Drum Café, boat trips, topless bus tours and much more.

For those of you who want to explore the Peninsula independently, our Leisure Co-ordinator will be pleased to assist you in arranging activities and in booking tours.´

The following day tours are often booked:
