点评:Nelson Mandela has always been one of the most popular leaders in Africa, leading South Africa to independence. His story has been one of resilience, and visiting Robben Island was a must-see. We booked our tickets online and had to carry passports for identification. The visit includes a 30-minute ferry trip to and from the island. You board the ferry at the V&A. Pro tip - carry some snacks and water with you. The ferry was pretty smooth, and the whole experience was four hours. The weather was pretty chilly, not too hot, not too cold. On arrival on the Island, we got into buses and went to our first stop in the prisons, where we had a talk from Oliver, who was once a prisoner there. He gave us a lot of insight, and after that, we went to see Nelson's prison cell and the court where he spent his time. The island is pretty deserted, and you get around by bus with a guided tour guide in the bus. We made a little stop where we saw some penguins. The staff was very helpful in making sure we were where we needed to be and boarded on time. The fee was 600 R per non-South African adult. The experience is best for anyone interested in history, and you can go with kids, friends, and family. In my pictures, you will see: a courtyard with flowers planted by Nelson Mandela and the same garden he used to hide the script of his famous speech, Nelson's cell, and the island environs.
