		<description><![CDATA[The opening of the new Jaffer Modern art gallery in Green Point, Cape Town comes at a time when human connection and congregation are sought after but limited due to social distancing. The gallery has responded to the times by mounting an inaugural exhibition entitled GATHERING: A Community of Portraits and offering visitors the option of private, one-on-one guided walkabouts that are free of charge. GATHERING: A Community of Portraits was curated with the intention of exploring our deep desire to commune and to showcase the diversity, cultures and commonalities of the African continent. Expect to be captivated by a plethora of intriguing portraits selected by guest curator, Margie Murgatroyd. The multiplicity and diversity of artistic voices creates a variety of avenues and perspectives to be explored and discovered. Private gallery tours will offer insight into these perspectives while allowing for personal interpretation of the works and interaction with the guest curator. It is a wonderful opportunity to delve into the alchemy of curating an exhibition and simultaneously see the concept realised. The private walkabouts offer the opportunity to uncover the narrative of the exhibition through its various themes. From the importance of cattle to humans, to gender, identity, belonging [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Summer in Cape Town is all about soaking up the warm beach weather and lazing into long evenings when the sun lingers in the sky. It’s a time to relax, enjoy good food and appreciate life. With the sun and sea on our brains, it’s always been a favourite time to enjoy seafood. With this in mind, Eye Bar is catering to summer tastes.

		<description><![CDATA[After the traditional festive season splurge, household budgets are usually stretched come January &#8211; hence the nickname “Janu-worry”. The first month of the year always welcomes measures that offer relief from those all-too-tight purse strings, especially with February’s Valentine’s Day plans on the horizon. In addition to those typical start-of-a-new-year woes, January and February 2021 will be spent with lockdown level 3 restrictions in place until 15 February 2021 (and possibly beyond), which came into play from late December 2020. This means that we can’t enjoy the same recreational activities that we usually would, because all public beaches, pools and parks are closed and a curfew is enforced. This, combined with pandemic stress and concern for loved ones, means that many of us are still in need of a holiday! Good news, is that it’s still possible. If you’d like your partner to feel like the fairy king or queen from Shakespeare’s Midsummer Night’s Dream, then treat your Oberon or Titiania to a budget-busting staycation at Cape Town’s vibiest new Atlantic seaboard hotel. Vïb Cape Town is welcoming guests with a dinner-bed-and-breakfast special offer that&#8217;s so incredible you&#8217;d be forgiven for thinking you were dreaming! The “Midsummer Night’s Vïb” lets [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Make this Christmas Dinner the most sumptuous ever with a lavish six-course festive meal conceived and prepared by Executive Chef Paul Nash of The Conservatory at The Cellars-Hohenort in Constantia, Cape Town. The jewel of the Constantia Valley, The Cellars-Hohenort is an impeccably appointed five-star hotel located in a majestic heritage building and surrounded by 9 acres of award-winning gardens. The Conservatory offers panoramic views out onto the renowned grounds of the hotel, which, combined with the tasteful interior design and fine food, all serve to enhance the experience. It’s an incredible setting with a delectable menu – what better for your festivities? Whether you’re in Cape Town on holiday, staying at the hotel, or a resident Capetonian who prefers to enjoy Christmas in gourmet style rather than slave away in the kitchen for days, The Conservatory is a welcoming, family-friendly destination for a memorable festive celebration. Chef Paul has taken the yuletide spirit to heart and opens the meal with a themed Christmas cocktail. The clear Christmas Turkey consommé is a contemporary play on the traditional bird; as is the classic gammon terrine, which is accompanied by roasted apple and pear. Artisan breads and butters round off the starters. [...]]]></description>

The oldest wine region in the country, the Constantia Wine Valley boasts some of South Africa’s most impressive and storied estates – whose grounds, wineries and eateries match up to their legacy in years.

		<description><![CDATA[Only 90 minutes’ drive from Cape Town lies the wonderful seaside hamlet of Hermanus, bursting with charm and amusement for young and old, and famed for its restful, relaxing pace. Situated on the stunning Overberg coast of the Western Cape, Hermanus offers much-needed respite from the world. Escape to nature and breathe the crisp, bubbly, “champagne” air along the spectacular Cliff Path &#8211; sure to revitalize the spirits. Hermanus has long been known as a destination for those needing health recuperating holidays. A Sanatorium was built in the town in 1896 so that visitors could benefit from the fine air quality and its purported health-giving benefits. Hermanus remains a wonderful year-round holiday destination still today, blessed by a magnificence of mountains and sea and endless beaches. This little coastal town never disappoints. Whales are one of the most mysterious and beautiful creatures in the ocean, with many people travelling hundreds of miles in the hope of spotting one of these gentle creatures. Hermanus offers some of the best whale watching experiences in the world. The best time to enjoy viewings is between July and November either from land, by boat or from the air via a scenic flight.

		<description><![CDATA[Now that local travel bans have lifted, and the weather is getting warmer, South Africans are returning to restaurants and the great outdoors in increasing numbers. One way to combine both of these enjoyable leisure pursuits, while simultaneously managing to social distance with ease, is to go on a luxury picnic that combines a beautiful setting with a basket brimming over with delectable treats and eats that have been prepared and packed especially for you. It’s all the pleasure, with none of the fuss. While Cape Town abounds with scenic splendor, there are not many destinations where you can enjoy a hosted picnic in safe and inspiring surroundings, with secure on-site parking while you relax. The beautiful, historic Cellars-Hohenort hotel in Constantia is one such rare destination – a place that will make you feel like a VIP in your own backyard. The hotel offers made-to-order picnics, created in the hotel’s inimitable five-star style, that are set against the verdant backdrop of its extraordinary, multiple award-winning Hohenort gardens. Once you’ve collected your basket, you can wander through the expansive grounds and choose where you’d like to soak in the Spring sunshine and the views of Constantia Valley and the Table [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Luckily, South Africa is blessed with epic, world-class tourist destinations, the kind that attracts a steady flow of foreign travelers under “normal” circumstances. Fortunate locals are spoilt for choice when it comes to planning a local breakaway. One such famed attraction is South Africa’s verdant Garden Route – a spectacular stretch of coastline on the eastern shores of the country that is peppered with must-see sights and hotspots. Spectacular views, misty indigenous forests, nature reserves, seaside resorts offering excellent cafés, curio shops, and fresh seafood, and a wide selection of outdoor adventure activities, are just a few of the reasons this east coast trail is so well-loved. The charming coastal towns of Plettenberg Bay, Knysna, Wilderness and Sedgefield are all a short drive from George Airport, approximately six hours drive from Cape Town and twelve hours drive from Johannesburg &#8211; perfect for a long weekend or an extended stay. But the veritable jewel in the Garden Route crown is undoubtedly Plettenberg Bay, affectionately known as “Plett”. It is not hard to understand why, thanks to Plett’s incredible natural surroundings, beautiful and pristine beaches, plentiful marine life, leisure pursuits, adventure activities, wildlife sanctuaries and luxury accommodation destinations. When staying in Plett, [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Now that inter-provincial leisure travel is permitted, but international flights are not yet on the cards, and what with conventional school terms all awry, South Africans are revising their holiday plans. This new move to enjoy the finest of local, right here, right now, comes with the added patriotic thrust and economic impetus of supporting our tourism industry. Discovering – or re-discovering – what our country has to offer is not without considerable pleasures. After all, South Africa is not a major global tourism destination for no reason. The Mother City sits at the pinnacle of this offering, with a global gourmet scene, award-winning wine estates and an iconic mountain that is one of the Natural Wonders of The World. And until international leisure travelers may return to the fairest of Capes, we have its splendour all to ourselves… Cape Town is not just a beacon for anyone outside of the Western Cape. Capetonians themselves have been known to “staycation” and live it up in the city. There’s a wealth of attractions and characterful areas. One such is the renowned Constantia region, set against the densely forested eastern sides of the Table Mountain range and sloping down into a valley [...]]]></description>
