Shopping trips to Cape Town can be as intense or as relaxed as you wish. Spend a few
hours at Cape Town's upmarket V&A Waterfront complex to get all
your shopping done under one roof or plan a day trip to Canal Walk, Century
City's imposing shopping mall and shop until you drop. For African artefacts
visit Cape Town markets and head to Long Street for books and curios.
Cape Town shopping districts
Make your shopping trip to Cape Town a cultural experience by browsing African crafts
at Muizenberg Flea Market and art galleries in buskers' magnet
Church Street. For tasteful beadwork, look along the cobbled streets of
De Waterkant or between old bookshops and gun outlets in Long
Street. If big is beautiful to you, you'll adore Century
City, home to Cape Town's most comprehensive shopping mall,
Canal Walk. The V&A Waterfront is a practical one-stop
shopping complex located near Cape Town city centre.
Market shopping trips to Cape Town
Convenient and creative, markets are an intricate part of the Cape Town shopping
scene. Take a trip to Muizenberg Flea Market on a Sunday to haggle for
hand-painted crockery, mysterious masks and leather objects. Any other day of the
week try the three-storey Pan African Market selling all types of African
crafts in Long Street. Even on your trip back to Cape Town airport you can do some
shopping on the side of the road for last-minute souvenirs.
