Itinerary

  1. We specialize in eye-opening guided tours of Langa, Cape Town’s oldest township. The tour takes you into the life of the township, and our lives, and teaches you about our culture and how things are done in our community. We visit informal businesses like Sheeben, Sheep's Head Restaurant, and spaza shops. We are welcomed into a home and you will see all the different housing that exist in our township. You learn more about the history, education, sports, politics, hopes, dreams, challenges and opportunities of the township. All our guides are Langa locals and know the community inside and out. Our guides include personal stories and experiences as well. Our groups are small to make sure your visit will be personal. Our tours are all about interaction, getting to know our community and to better understand the dynamics and the people. The tours are very family-friendly! On Sunday mornings we include a church visit with Gospel singing.

About Cape Town

Cape Town spreads between Table Mountain and the sea, a striking city of beaches, vineyards, penguins and history near Africa's southwestern tip.

Table Mountain's flat summit looms over everything, reached by cableway or by hiking trails, with Lion's Head and Signal Hill flanking it. Below, the V&A Waterfront bustles around the working harbour, and boats leave from there for Robben Island, where Nelson Mandela was held for eighteen years. The colourful houses of Bo-Kaap climb the slopes above the city centre and the Company's Garden.

Top-ranked sights in Cape Town: Boulders Beach, Cape of Good Hope, Chapman’s Peak Drive.
