You can only imagine the zone you can get into, listening to some vinyl, with a joint in one hand and your new iPad in the other – on the day that Google Maps goes live with “Google Street View” for Cape Town. My God, I have traipsed every square inch of this city, all from the comfort of The Safe House sofa!
First I popped in at Caprice to try out the 2oceansvibe cocktail:
Cafe Caprice on Google Maps “Street View”
Nice day they were having when they shot that!
Mmm, that was good!
Follow the link to see where else I went and also learn how to do this on your own computer or iPhone or iPad!
So off I went to Green Point to check out my Primary Residence, The Cape Royale Hotel.
Lookin’ good!

Here are some others:
It’s so awesome!
Want to learn how to do it yourself? Ok..
HOW TO USE STREET VIEW YOURSELF:
Using a computer, Click here to go to Google Maps.
Type in an address in the box – eg. 53 Victoria road, camps bay, cape town.
Press Enter.
Click the little “A” symbol that appears:
Then click “street view.”
BANG! You’re “A” for “AWAY!”
If you’re on your iPhone or iPad, then simply click the “Maps” app (bottom right of below screenshot).
Then search for any address and, when you see the little man appear in the orange circle, click that little man!
And there you have it – you are cruising around Cape Town without moving an inch. Pretty much what you do anyway!
Aah yes, these are wonderful times. If you don’t have an iPhone or haven’t booked your iPad yet, be sure to zip over to Digicape and make it happen!
