Fodor's Expert Review Afternoon Tea at Mount Nelson

Don't miss Mount Nelson's legendary high tea, which has been offered since the hotel was erected in 1899 to welcome the Prince of Wales on his visit to the Cape. Served from 2:30 to 5:30, afternoon tea offers a pastry selection that can tempt even the most jaded palate, with savory treats that make for a scrumptious meal, and more than 40 tea varieties, which an expertly-trained tea sommelier can guide you through.
