King Williams Town Guide

Nestled on the banks of the Buffalo River, in the Eastern Cape province, is King Williams Town. Holding a residential population of over 100,000 people, King Williams Town is one of the largest towns in the region. With a high number of buildings made of stone, the township of King William's Town is quite an intriguing place to visit.

Sitting at the foot of the Amatola Mountains, almost 400 meters above sea level, King William's Town is a rich agricultural and industrial district. The main products located in the township are jams, soaps, wool, grains, candles and leather. However, cattle and sheep farms are still predominant in the surrounding area. Tours can be organised, and car hire in King William's Town is the most effective transport option for this.

The closest airport to King Williams Town is the East London International Airport, which stands about 60kms to the east. Car rental in King Williams Town can provide quick access along the R346, which takes travellers directly into the East London Metropolitan Area. A train line also connects King William's Town with East London.

With East London just a 40 minute drive from King Williams Town, many visitors choose to travel to the township for daytrips. However, if tourists desire to stay for a night or two, then recommended hotels would include The Manderson Hotel, Hemingways Hotel and the Crown.

Most of the attractions of King Williams Town are located within easy reach of the city centre, particularly with cheap car hire in King Williams Town. The Amathole Museum and the Missionary Museum of South Africa are the city's main highlights, and the picturesque Pirie Forest and Mount Kemp are just a short drive by car.
