Constantia is a major tourist attraction with its breathtaking, green landscapes as well as the stunning Baroque and Cape Dutch architectural styles. This is a wonderful family friendly suburb with top schools and plenty to do for the children too! With hiking and bike trails, as well as SA Forest Adventures in Constantia, which is home to one of Africa’s highest and longest zip line tours stretching for over 2.3 km! This being one of South Africa’s top rated adventures to experience. With so much to explore, everyone is sure to indulge in what Constantia has to offer.

There are also a number of other small shops and centres within this suburb.
Although there are a number of known incidents that occur, Constantia is still considered one of the safest suburbs in Cape Town.
