The Silo Cape Town

SIGNATURE GUIDED SAFARIS® • SOUTH AFRICA

Signature Guided Safaris®

The Silo Cape Town

The Silo will forever be an iconic element of the Cape skyline with an avant-garde urban design. Pillowed window panels and the dramatic modern geometry of a "glowing lantern" on the Victoria & Alfred waterfront offer the best views of Cape Town: Table Mountain and the city on one side and the endless Atlantic before you. The Silo is located six floors above the Zeitz MoCAA (Museum of Contemporary Art Africa), rivaling the world’s great art collections in contemporary wonders. Designed by Thomas Heatherwick Studio famed for globally-acclaimed projects like Thames Garden Bridge and Google Campus.

Cape Town Diaries

Discovering the soul of a city is no simple task. Cities need to be understood to be loved, and unveiling their true essence often requires local insight and the luxury of time. The Silo offers a homegrown perspective, inviting guests to become part of Cape Town’s story. Whether exploring hidden gems off the beaten path or well-known landmarks, your journey through Cape Town will be filled with authentic moments and lasting memories.

The Silo’s enviable location places you at the crossroads of Cape Town’s finest—just moments from the city center, overlooking the V&A Waterfront, and framed by the majestic Table Mountain. While Cape Town’s heart lies at your doorstep, each visitor’s journey is uniquely their own.
