Well, it's official, folks! Time Out's annual ranking of the world's best cities has been released, and Cape Town has taken the top spot, and it's easy to see why!
From its breathtaking landscapes to its vibrant culture, it has become a global must-visit destination. Whether you're drawn by its Blue Flag beaches, its culinary scene (was voted a top Foodie destination in 2024), or its diverse array of experiences, Cape Town is more than just a place to visit—it's a place to fall in love with.
Data collected from more than 18,000 locals and a global network of city editors on the following categories—food, livability, safety, and nightlife—allowed Time Out to create a ranking of the 50 best cities in the world.
It was reported that 97% of locals said Cape Town makes them happy. The city's historical and cultural significance, majestic scenery, and endless activities for all have cemented Cape Town's rank.
