Cape Town Facts & Tips

Cape Town is the oldest city in South Africa

Cape Town is the oldest city in South Africa. It was first mentioned by the famous explorer Bartolomeu Dias in the late 15th century. After Jan van Riebeeck and his crew for the Dutch East India Company established the first European settlement in South Africa, the town became an important European outpost and trading post for the Dutch East India Company. Although the area was inhabited for thousands of years prior to the arrival of the Europeans, there is no recorded history of local activities of the Khoi and their predecessors.

Buccaneers Lodge And Backpackers - Hostel


Buccaneers Lodge And Backpackers Buccaneers Lodge And Backpackers Buccaneers Lodge And Backpackers Buccaneers Lodge And Backpackers Buccaneers Lodge And Backpackers

Most people say that it's a place to come home to, a legend in its own time. For us it is home and for the past 12 years we have been sharing it with people just like you - travelers from all over the world.

We like to think that at this stage we know what you want. These are some of the things we have learnt:

Travelers come in all shapes and ages. They tend to fall into (or between) these categories:-
Cool cats
Cocooning couples
The jolly festives
The quiet contemplatives

So we offer choices.......
There's a lovely lively bar which has certainly seen some great revelry in its time. Our stunning tropical pool is a buzzy spot in the summer months when a gorgeous poolside cafe offers decidedly decadent refreshments (including divine pizzas!). And every day we have some sort of free activity so you can chill and meet the rest of the gang.

And for you, the quieter ones, Buccaneers is a haven of tranquility and natural delights.
