Wedgewood in action.EXPLORE THE UNDISCOVERED. EXPERIENCE THE UNFORGETTABLE.

NO VISIT TO CAPE TOWN IS COMPLETE WITHOUT A TRIP UP TABLE MOUNTAIN, ON ITS WAY TO BECOMING ONE OF THE NEW 7 NATURAL WONDERS OF THE WORLD.

W e d g e w o o d S o u t h A f r i c a successfully ran an International Conference for Aims International based in Brussels, r ight here in the beautiful “Mother City”. The wonderful Vineyard Hotel, located in the lush leafy suburb of Newlands, was the location for this World class event. The Vineyard Hotel & Spa is a lovely combination of historic-vineyard-house and modern hotel and is within easy walking distance of the up-market Shopping Centre and just 10 minutes away from the City Centre.

Classic vintage vehicles were the mode of transport for the entire evening. Delegates were whisked up to the top of Table Mountain in modern revolving cable cars to award them with spectacular 360 degree views of Cape Town. Private area was cordoned off

on the Twelve Apostles Terrace for the group where they took pleasure in making a toast with Sparkling Wine to the beautiful city of Cape Town. The Vintage cars journeyed along the coastline past the world famous Camps Bay Beach, past the magnificently lit Cape Town Stadium to Wakame Restaurant, where a lavish set-up awaited them.

Cape of Good Hope, also known as Cape of Storms is the mythical meet ing pace o f the Ind ian and Atlantic Oceans. The tour commences with a drive through Chapman’s Peak, one of the most scenic drives in the world, through to the Cape of Good Hope Nature Reserve and Boulders Beach Penguin Colony. Ending the day with a fabulous evening at Moyo Blaauberg filled with African flair and Entertainment.
