The Backpack & Africa Travel Centre in Capetown, South Africa

The internet booking wasn´t working very well, so check up carefully that what you booked is really booked! Send them an e-mail. Lena, from Sweden ~ 19th Apr 2009

Definately enjoyed myself. Will be coming back. Petter, from Sweden ~ 22nd Mar 2009

Everyone was helpful, concerned and professional. I felt at home, and very welcome. The Backpacker was a major part of why I enjoyed Cape Town so much. I look forward to returning soon.

Thank you Rita - we just love it when people tell us they felt at home, we feel we have then succeeded as that is where one is usually most comfortable! We look forward to your return. The Backpack Team

The cleanest & nicest hostel I have ever seen. Crew organized different trips in and 'round Cape Town. Amazing friendly. i would go so far and call this a hotel: we had our bed made every day and have been supplied clean towels. Crew was extraordinary friendly and helpful. And all this for absolute reasonable prices. Thank you very much, THE BACKPACK! Max, from Germany ~ 16th Feb 2009

One of the best Hostels I have stayed in. Mike, from USA ~ 9th Jan 2009

I recommend this backpack to everyone. The rooms are spacious, clean and nicely decorated. The staff is super friendly and helpful. The food is to die for... from pizzas to pastas to breakfast.. You put on weight after eating such a meal :-) Don't hesitate to make a booking in that backpack. Dirk Dirk, from Belgium ~ 8th Jan 2009
