Trace the footsteps of South Africa's Gallant Freedom Fighters at the Robben Island Museum. The museum is located on Robben Island, just off the coast of Cape Town. It holds a significant place in South African history as it once housed the country’s most famous political prisoner and freedom fighter, Nelson Mandela. It is now a World Heritage Site and one of the most popular tourist attractions in South Africa. Your visit to the museum will be guided by a former political prisoner, offering unique insight into the island’s history, and take you to Nelson Mandela’s former cell, standing exactly as it did when he was incarcerated there, as well as the lime quarry where he was forced into hard labour. Your tour begins at the V&A Waterfront before a ferry collects you for a boat ride to the island (weather permitting).
