The Apartheid Museum is internationally recognized as the best museum of the 20th Century. The Museum unpacks the story of the rise and fall of South Africa's era of segregation and oppression. A visit to the Apartheid Museum is both depressing and inspiring, emotional yet uplifting. After two to four hours you spend in, allow yourself another half an hour to contemplate brutality you witnessed inside, process your shock and walk away with relief – knowing you are on the terrain where truth spoke to power and won.
The Apartheid Museum showcases South Africa in the turbulent years of the apartheid. During this period, millions of people were subjected to a life of servitude, discrimination and oppression until the country was liberated.
The museum also illustrates the rise and fall of apartheid through dramatic film footages.

Another fabulous trip and I just loved the huge colony of penguins. The whole day trip was magic with baboons running around our feet at Cape of Good Hope and the feeling of being at the bottom of the world as you looked out to sea. Well worth doing
