Cape Town is the shining jewel on the southern toe of Africa. Perhaps the most reliably safe city in South Africa, it has the best amenities in the country as the government capitalizes on its tourist appeal.

Despite being made famous by Humphrey Bogart in the movie of the same name, Casablanca (or 'The White House') is relatively untouched by the tourist trade. This is a small Moroccan city where English-speakers are few (locals speak French, Arabic and a little Spanish) and life is more or less the same way it has been for hundreds of years, give or take a few pieces of modern industry.
