About This Experience

You cannot understand Cape Town without seeing this side of it. Led by guides who grew up in the townships, this private tour visits Langa - the city's oldest township - Gugulethu and Khayelitsha. You will meet community entrepreneurs, visit a sangoma or shebeen on request, see the District Six Museum and hear honest stories about apartheid, the transition and the present.
