- Welcome to Cape Town South Africa! Morning drive from Cape Town International Airport to Downtown Cape Town in South Africa.
Cape Town is a port city on South Africa’s southwest coast, on a peninsula beneath the imposing Table Mountain. Slowly rotating cable cars climb to the mountain’s flat top, from which there are sweeping views of the city, the busy harbor and boats heading for Robben Island, the notorious prison that once held Nelson Mandela, which is now a living museum. ― Google
Cape Town is the oldest and second largest city in South Africa, after Johannesburg, and also the seat of the Parliament of South Africa.
Colloquially named the Mother City, it is the largest city of the Western Cape province and forms part of the City of Cape Town metropolitan municipality. The Parliament of South Africa is situated in Cape Town. The other two capitals are located in Gauteng (in Pretoria, the executive capital, where the Presidency is based) and in the Free State (in Bloemfontein, the judicial capital, where the Supreme Court of Appeal is located). The city is known for its harbour, for its natural setting in the Cape Floristic Region, and for landmarks such as Table Mountain and Cape Point. Cape Town is home to 66% of the Western Cape's population. The city was named the World Design Capital for 2014 by the International Council of Societies of Industrial Design.
In 2014, Cape Town was named the best place in the world to visit by both The New York Times and The Daily Telegraph. Cape Town has also been a host city for both the 1995 Rugby World Cup and 2010 FIFA World Cup, and annually hosts the Africa leg of the World Rugby 7s. It will also be host to the 2023 Netball World Cup.
Located on the shore of Table Bay, Cape Town, as the oldest urban area in the Western Cape, it was developed by the Dutch East India Company (VOC) as a supply station for Dutch ships sailing to East Africa, India, and the Far East. Jan van Riebeeck's arrival on 6 April 1652 established the VOC Cape Colony, the first permanent European settlement in South Africa. Cape Town outgrew its original purpose as the first European outpost at the Castle of Good Hope, becoming the economic and cultural hub of the Cape Colony. Until the Witwatersrand Gold Rush and the development of Johannesburg, Cape Town was the largest city in South Africa.

Woof! Cape Town looks not less then any American City tbh what a clean and green city with great infrastructure🏙️ looks well managed city.
Love from Pakistan 🇵🇰
Inequality is big though, half of capetown is pretty much a slum, while the other half looks like a western city
@@antony6799 Liar!
@@antony6799When you the other half that means 50% of Cape Town is a slum. Where do you get your information from because according to the research done by the UWC School of Governance and the HS Foundation 7% of the people in Cape Town live in infornal settlements. Or is it one of those nice to soundbites just to fish for applause? 5:16
@@antony6799there are also slums in the USA
Who else is addicted to watching these driving videos ? 🙋🏻♂️🚙😁❤️
Me 😃
Me! 🙋♂️
Me!
I love watching these videos cause it's like I'm there without actually being there
@@tylerlloyd380 facts and it is relaxing!
wow....the city is looking like a moder developed western city...Love South Africa from India
TBH, Cape Town looks like America!
@@callmeninjanick5560 Looks more like a western European country. A mix of the UK and the Netherlands.
@@hakarmalm7756 its looks far non of those , Coz Most of European Countries have That European building design ,like UK ,France,Italy,Netherlands,
It Doesn't have European countries Vibes
It looks like city in California or in Australia,
But it looks more like City in South Africa Especially Cape Town, Which is what it is ,
Not every City look like Other City
@@callmeninjanick5560looks like modern EU city. But Johannesburg looks utterly poor with Poverty n dirt
@@Ry_inenah. Joburg has wider highways. Joburg is a very big area with poor and most modern areas. Look up sandton and waterfalls.
This city is looking way too better than Mumbai and Delhi.....
Say what you want about the low standard of Indian infrastructure but at least the crime is nowhere near what it is in South Africa 🤔
Honestly, most cities in the world look better than Mumbai and Delhi, or any indian city for that matter.
Indian cities are worst planned and chaotic!!
@@sanjoe7265 yeah! U r right.....
@@death_crawl20 southeast asia is all worst country .execpt maldives and srilanka
*Cape Town the most beautiful city in Africa,THE PEARL OF THE CONTINENT.*
Sometimes J Utah i dont know what I'd do without you. I love to just relax before bedtime and explore a city with you. Please keep up the great work. Great addition!
I'm so used to thinking of the desert when I think of Africa, I forget it has beautiful major cities like this.
South Africa is like Europe , google its cities
South Africa is made by Europeans that’s why is don’t ugly like next African countries.
@@kendallbr9166 White South Africans , are South Africans , understand that . And you are just salty knowing your country will never be like this , thinking about it , wasn't Lagos built by the French , Maputo by the Portuguese , Lilongwe by the British , you are very ignorant
@@kendallbr9166 South Africa is was built by everyone who lives in it. My great grandfather was part of the crew that built the N2. My grand dad worked in the mines to extract the coal that powered this development so yeah we have a difficult past but this country was built and is being built by South Africans not Europeans.
@@christopherwalker5017 no South Africa isn't like Europe. It looks like South Africa.
Road infrastructure South Africa leads all African countries !!!! World standard level 👍👍👍
TBH, Cape Town looks like America!
I think it looks more like UK
@@callmeninjanick5560 definitely looks more like the U.K.
Lol Namibia leads in road infrastructure in Africa & its 23rd globally , 6 years in a row on number 1 , about to be 7 years this year , look it up , these roads are still nothing compared to Namibia’s roads , our South Africa is crap , only Cape Town got better roads
@@jamesb4729 more like city in Australia
Indian in South Africa here. First driving in India now SA! it’s like a treat watching these videos! Enjoy your stay here in South Africa!
An immense pleasure to be able to see the world with you, experience all the small details in your video. Thank you! Amazing job! : 0
Overcast is not the best time to witness the beauty of Cape Town, but yeah it's still beautiful... (PS, You missed the best part of Cape Town: the Atlantic seaboard & Table Mountain)
I am so sick of sunny days that i always find overcast more beautiful in any city in the world .
@@awsomemodels if you're indeed so sick of sunny days then come to Scotland. The sun🌞 is a like a special commodity in this part of the world. It only comes once a month on a "Wednesday"
@@Stirlingshirecastle I would love to ! I live in southern Iraq and sometimes 4 months can pass without a single cloud in the sky , so in the winter when we get clouds i literally take pictures of every single cloudy day .
@@awsomemodels I now understand your quest for cooler climate. The Middle East heatwave is unbearable. Here in Scotland we're surrounded by the Atlantic ocean so our summers vary between 17-20° & winters can vary between minus 8 to 5° I do get your point, I also like the mild cool summers here in Britain.
OMG Capetown. I'm really so surprised watching South Africa so clean and so developed. Never thought South Africa was so good. Loads of love and appreciation to South Africa from India ❤️
TBH, Cape Town looks like America!
Cape town is very american actuality
Yeah what Western Media dont want you to see.
@@brentliosmithii3467 haha cape town is far from developed. 20% are nice and clean and made for millionairs (camps bay, clifton etc) but the rest really can sometimes be a shithole. don't want to offend someone but let's face it. CT has some nice places but considering the whole of cape town I'd say it's far from beautiful....
@@walkwithjonas7920 bro you're wrong. I was born in cpt. And lived most of my life out of the city. So I can assure you cpt is beautiful city. You can definitely say some areas are shithole and the entire city is not so developed. But beauty of a city and development is two separate things.
Preciosa ciudad de Primer mundo...realmente Ciudad del Cabo hasta supera a muchas ciudades de EEUU, su red vial es impecable, todo muy bien señalizado, cableado subterráneo, áreas verdes muy bien conservadas, edificios modernos e históricos, en latinoamericana solo Santiago de Chile y Buenos Aires están a este nivel. Sin dudas Ciudad del Cabo es de las más bellas del mundo...saludos desde Texas,EEUU.
Beautiful Cape Town
I like how South Africa has nicer roads than any US state
They both are the same but us is kinda more straight
You've never been to south Africa if you think that
One thing I love about Cape town is to see all these old classic cars n Cape cords buildings that r still in good condition..👌
Great video. Unfortunately most of the beauty of the city is hidden by the clouds. Believe me,I live here.
Not sure what part of Cape Town you live in but bro that's largely false
@@kwandamadela7707 I don’t believe you understood what the op wrote. It was a cloudy day thus the beauty of the city wasn’t shown properly.
@@lamintouray7386 Ohhh damn I thought he meant it is almost always cloudy 😂
I absolutely love your videos J Utah! It’s so cool seeing all the places you travel two around the world! And it gives us a good perspective of what it looks like!❤️
I just like watching your videos on my pc through my 46" 4K tv
runs smoothly and always looks amazingly beautiful... Thanks J
J Utah I am so glad to see you finally took a drive in South Africa. Great video!
Thanks for taking us everywhere in the world
Quel magnifique ville en tous cas ya aucune différence entre ici et USA big respect sud africa c'est beau et propre
This place is beautiful!
Beautiful drive tour.
A new place to discover!! Thanks so much for this drive, J!!! All the best my friend. ✌👊
Looks awesome! Very clean and a lot of interesting details.
The most developed city in Africa. and the one of the most beautiful city in the world.
And one of the highest crime rates also. Don't forget that.
Not the most developed. But yeah it is the most beautiful - that no one can argue.
Not the most developed - thats JHB not CPT .
@@shisuiuchiha480It is also way ahead than any African countries in terms of development, South Africa is a third world country that has the first world infrastructure.
Not just in one city but in all major cities, Cape Town, Joburg, Durban, and Pretoria all have developed infrastructures.
Unlike most African countries that only boast about one city that is beautiful but rest of the cities are terrible.
Beautiful Town!
A beautiful drive of a beautiful city! Great video!
Спасибо М-р Д-в!!!Поездка Пришлась по Душе,Скорость, Попутный Пейзаж,Звук дорожный Жизни!!!Счастливого Пути!!!👍☀️🌈
SA is no less compared to any European city! Love from 🇮🇳
Except you're unlikely to get shot and raped in most of Europe 🤣
@@tomjohnston3393 same in England too
@@tomjohnston3393 In Cape Town you'll only get shot if you're part of a gang
@@ukisbeggar8462 Don't worry. We will donate $45 trillion for toilet building in your country 🤣🖕
@@tomjohnston3393 Ahhh see a South African hater , don't worry mate I've dealt with plenty ignorant fools like you , you know with your rising cost of living , social unrest and a prime minister who is above the the law no wonder so many South Africans are coming back home , I mean I can understand the jealousy when its our world class South Africans scientists that found a new strain of covid that saves thousands of British lives , I can understand your jealousy when its us in South Africa that is home to a more advanced mRNA facility than stab land , oh sorry I mean Brit land will ever have ,I understand your frustration when we in South Africa are able to imprison and charge our former heads of state , unlike you . Oh and thanks but we don't need your money , we have a the best emerging market currency in the world so rather spend your cash on decreasing your cost of living
you inspire me so much with every video you release.. i only hope to be able to visit all of these places someday
Wow already in South Africa. Amazing
Beautiful road and Nice view
I love it! It has been a long time since I have been in Cape Town.
Incredibly sharp quality video! There’s no place I’d rather be than Cape Town!
Super! Thank you 👍🚗🛣️
Thank you very much for showing us other parts of the world!🥰
Great videos, top quality.
Thank you. Greetings from Berlin, Germany
The Mother City!
Great video❤
Beautiful city
When I was in there in 2002 I was always driving like this Cape Town is very clean and nice, love from Thailand.
Great Video. Thanks for sharing 😀👍
Beautiful drive 👍☀
On behalf of my South African patriots, I say we are honoured to have featured on not just one but FIVE different road trips on this channel 🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦
They say that whites never show Africa on a positive light, but you among many others I've seen actually here on CZcams, have proven everybody wrong when it comes to South Africa. You outdid yourself and done justice to our beautiful country 🇿🇦. Thank you so much J Utah for giving us something to show our children so that they should remember never to be ashamed of their country and how blessed they truly are to have been born here 😭😭😭😭😭🙌🏽
*SouthAfrica🇿🇦* is by far the most developed country in *Africa* ... Great video *J Utah* ...🤔
that is so true. it would also be the best if it wasn't for all the crime.
How about Mauritius and Seychelles?
People who have managed to live in New York or Atlanta in the US can live in South Africa coz its similar in most cases !
@@dgd865 Our crime really isn't that bad , its just like living in the US
@@kalvin7269 One South African makes more money a year than these two places combined so no thanks
THANKS YOU FOR SHARING This video
My home Town! Greetings From Cape Town
Amazing
Shalom! Excelente o trabalho que fazem.
Love the weather. Most beautiful👍
Beautiful city!
The city is so clean
As an Indian I love visiting South Africa all the time. Alot of our people are there. You should check out Kenya and Tanzania as well.
alot of your people are EVERYWHERE!
Yeah being racist just like how you're racist in India
Lovely city lovely video 🥰 thank you so much
Now in my wishlist there's one last destination in my dreams to be covered by this marvelous channel: Mexico. As soon as it's done, humanity can die in peace.
I was here for a week exactly 20 years ago and never felt safe apart from the time I was in a shopping mall or at the Waterfront. A place where there were or you would think there was a suspicious character at every corner
One of the most beautiful cities in the world. Hope to be back soon 😍
So amazing city, love from BR😘
Never been there before, but this city is awesome
Cape town to me just looks like some cities in Australian and New Zealand in terms of buildings and traffic lights.
No those cities look like Cape Town not the other way around. Cape Town is too old to be disrespected
They got British influence all of them
@@phumzilexolo17 what kind of British Influence Exactly you are talking about,
YOU can Recognize UK cities From and Cities in Australia or New Zealand or South africa,
COZ We all Know How British cities building look like in general European Cities
I like the way that you had just arrived from the airport and already driving about
Greetings from Poland 🙂🇵🇱
Beautiful footage
Waiting for years for this city drive
A hug from Brazil to all of you.
Beautiful city 💕
Greeting from Iran,Tehran
Amazing video!
J Utah, I think you are breaking stereotypes about some places also, like India, and now Africa.
Africa is a continent
I love my City & Cape town is my country.
Beautiful 😊
I’m coming to Cape Town in August, I can’t wait 😭😭
take me 😭
Bring warm clothes.
Bro you were here???? ive literally whatched all your videos man. please do more south africa.
Thanks for your driving. :) it's a new city I have never heard before.
South African city
You have never heard of Cape Town???
So beautiful 👍🥰
I love Cape Town
Excellent well done 👍
Good looking city
Most beautiful city in subsaharian Africa. Thanks!
In the whole of Africa
I think in the whole Africa.
I guess they has better cities in the north of Africa hey
@@Philasande_Shange North Africa is overrated cuz they are light skinned South Africa is not only the most beautiful country in Africa but in the world I have been to Egypt u find dusty roads and slums even in thier capital city
@@Philasande_Shange South African Cities make North African cities look like a joke. Can't compare Cape town with Cairo. North African cities are like Cleaner West African cities.
Cape town is beautiful love it, visit more cities of southAfrica good drive Thankyou❤❤❤🇮🇳🇮🇳🇮🇳
I always wished that I can visit Cape Town one day.
amazing video. I'm your fan.
So nice. Looks like Europe.
Nice tour.
beautiful scenery,greeting from China.
Beautiful city. Appreciation from India
Welcome to Cape Town
Thanks a lot, south africa was always in my bucket list, looking forward to travel very soon
I caution against that. Unless getting shot and raped is also on your bucket list 👌
@@tomjohnston3393 dangerous country ?

Hmm
@@waylonpark2092 Bro just do your research and don't listen to ignorant people
Nice trip.
Gorgeous
What a beautiful city!
I'm impressed, never seen a city here in brazil with such well-maintained infrastructure.
_Vamos viajar._
Those old colonial buildings look just like the creole townhouses of New Orleans, their style seem quite similar
Great video, thanks for sharing! greetings from China.
it's good to see some familiar places like long street 134. visit S.M.A shop on long street 134. mr manan
👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻 1093 ………your videos are beautiful, he always watched them all, I don't miss one
After watching many videos of driving round some African cities, notably Lagos, this is quite a contrast.
I thought it was gonna rain this morning.. Cape Town weather is unpredictable. 😂
Jerusalem beautiful too
Thanks for this J Utah I am considering using some lessons gained from your videos in recommendations to improve my own city
