Hi Annette,
You’ll be travelling to South Africa in springtime so the weather will be comfortably warm with highs of around 19 degrees. I’d recommend that you take clothes than you can easily layer so that you can add or remove layers depending on the time of day. It’s also worth noting that there is a chance of rain at this time of year so make sure you pack a lightweight waterproof.
You have two options for seeing Robben Island;
1. Visit on Day 3 of your holiday. You would have to miss the optional tour of The Winelands to fit this in.
2. Visit on the afternoon of Day 2, so you can still do the orientation tour of Cape Town. If you prefer this option, please book as late in the afternoon as possible. You would also need to make your own way back to the hotel by taxi for dinner.
I hope this information helps you make your decision.
Kind regards
Julia, your editor
