As with all popular tourist destinations, the Christmas to New Years Day period will be extremely busy in Cape Town. Be sure to book ahead for any activities that you would like to experience as well as for accommodation.

Here is a brief report on the numbers from 2014.

Tourist venues such as Robben Island will be accessible.

Hotels and hostels will be quite full.

Public transport such as buses, trains, and minibus taxis will be working.

There will be many events happening around the city.
