http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/ Welcome to Been there. Your tips on the places you know - that you love, live in or have just visited - are what make this guide. http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/16645
Be warned you need to book tickets in advance – best to go to the Nelson Mandela Gateway at the V&A Waterfront to do this at least one day before you want to visit. We tried phoning to book but were told there was a 2 week wait! When we went along we got tickets for the next day! They are about to bring new bigger boats into service because of the demand, so it may get easier.

While you are waiting why not go to see the small museum at Jetty One (free entry), listen to audio recording of former prisoners, their families, lawyers and prison employees in the bleak waiting room where they had to wait for boats.]]> http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/16645 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/9631
I recommend it because I lived and worked with the San in southern Africa until recently and this is the BEST thing I have seen out there, that really, practically helps the San and teaches tourists about some of the real issues still alive in South Africa today...

What's more it's as cheap as chips if you are coming from Europe!]]> http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/9631 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/1874 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/1874 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/1836 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/1836 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/244 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/244
