City highlights.

Adventure, everywhere.

Cape Town has it all: mountains, beaches, urban jungle and more. Whatever you’re looking for, you’ll find it.

Rich history and culture.

South Africa’s oldest city has had a turbulent past, which has created a flourishingly diverse present.

Thriving start-up hub.

The Cape lifestyle has it all for entrepreneurs, who flock here from around the world to bring their ideas to life.

Very affordable.

Favorable exchange rates to the dollar mean South Africa is much cheaper than many other destinations.

Study abroad's best-kept secret.

Affectionately known as the Mother City, Cape Town is South Africa's oldest city. Cape Town is rated as one of the most beautiful cities in the world with a backdrop of flat-topped Table Mountain juxtaposed by the sweep of the Atlantic Ocean in the foreground. There is no other city in the world that allows you to live an adventure so close to urban life.

Start your mornings or end your days with a hike or a surf, before walking through the bustling town to take class or start your internship. ‘Work hard, play hard’ is the mantra of our Cape Town campus.

"The Management Consulting course was one of the best educational decisions I have ever made, and pivotal in my following career moves. My time at this program laid down the foundation for me to get a place as a Summer Business Analyst at McKinsey London. The biggest learning outcome I got was a growth mindset and after graduation, instead of playing it safe, I leapt into starting my own company."

See Cape Town through the eyes of iX students.

Adventure meets bustling city.

Below are activities that iX students did in 2023, which we captured on video. Some are included, others aren't. Excursions change from year to year.

Accommodation & co-working.

Where you'll stay.

Set against the backdrop of the Twelve Apostles Mountain Range and a stone's throw from the most beautiful beaches in Cape Town, Camps Bay Village is perfectly located for your dream holiday. Within walking distance of an abundance of day and night activities, cafes, sundowner spots, cocktail venues, fantastic restaurants, and places to be seen, staying at Camps Bay Village is both fun and convenient.

Where you'll work.

The iX classroom space is in Neighbourgood Cape Quarter, a premium coworking space a short walk from the student accommodation. From the third floor space, views over Cape Town accompany every class, and several of Cape Town’s best cafés and eateries are just downstairs. The hybrid working life is at its best here!

Parents who visited iX Abroad.

Each year, we welcome dozens of parents who visit their children in each of our incredible campus cities. In this video, we caught up with parents who visited iX Abroad, and asked what their experience was like in Cape Town, South Africa and Lisbon, Portugal.

More Cape Town experiences.

Surfing at Muizenberg beach.

Shakamahala dudes. No but really, we had the MOST incredible time surfing a few days ago with the Cape Town crew at Muizenberg Beach - and just had to share the good vibes. Here’s to getting out of the comfort zone and many more adventures ahead.

Climbing Lion's Head.

We had an unbelievable hike with the Cape Town students this morning to the top of Lion's head. It’s so inspiring to see how much the group is gaining from the experience so far, and we’re only at the beginning.

Touring Langa.

A few weeks ago our Cape Town students visited an informal settlement on the outskirts of the city called Langa. Exposure to different cultures/socio-economic circumstances is a core pillar of what we do here at iX. We can only create true impact when we have awareness. Here’s how it went…
