Many travellers may find it difficult to resist Cape Town's array of spectacular scenery
More people are planning holidays to exotic faraway locations this year, it has been suggested.
An improved growth within the global economy has encouraged families to consider taking breaks in long-haul destinations.

Travellers must ensure they have a comprehensive travel insurance policy before heading to their holiday destinations.
Cape Town's capacity to stage renowned events such as the World Cup in 2010 and the International Jazz Festival last month may also encourage holidaymakers to visit the city.
