Cape Town has cleaned up at the 2022 World Travel Awards, taking no fewer than five of the prestigious awards.

The city itself was named Africa’s Leading City Destination of the year, while Cape Town International Airport and the Silo Hotel took Africa’s Leading Airport and Africa’s Leading Design and Leading Luxury Hotel respectively.

Table Mountain has proven that fourth time’s a charm as it scooped the title of Africa’s Leading Attraction for the fourth year in a row.

The Mother City’s most iconic landmark bagged the title ahead of other nominees including Egypt’s Pyramids of Giza, Mount Kilimanjaro and locally, the V&A Waterfront and Robben Island.

“We faced some very worthy competitors, especially from our hometown heroes such as Robben Island and the V&A Waterfront,” said Wahida Parker, managing director for the Table Mountain Aerial Cableway Company (TMACC).

“Most of the nominees in our category were from Cape Town, which shows again what a wonderful and successful mix of attractions we have in the Mother City,” Parker added.
