3About Alice
Alice, in the Eastern Cape, lies along the R63 between Fort Beaufort and Qonce, with Hogsback just up the road for those wanting cooler mountain air. Bisho Airport is about 60 km out, so most visitors drive in via Qonce or Fort Beaufort rather than fly. It's a quiet university town, but don't let that fool you, this is where Nelson Mandela and Oliver Tambo studied, at the University of Fort Hare, founded way back in 1916.
