Ready to experience a side of Cape Town like a local, with a local? This is a tour, unlike any other! If you want to take a step away from the touristy path, there's no better way than by diving into the city's alternative side. Welcome to Woodstock!

If you're done with the main highlights, why not step away and take a less-traveled path that will show you an unexpected side of Cape Town? Follow a local guide on a private tour full of surprises and check out Old Biscuit Mill, District six museum, and more that let the true form of the city shine!

Kim (taking over from her mom who was poorly so couldn’t do the tour) was lovely. We got along well, but the tour did not fully reflect what i’d paid for. I basically only visited the District Six museum and the Castle of Good Hope, and ended up at the Mill. I did NOT visit the Fugard theatre, St Mary’s Anglican church, the Woodstock exchange and the Heart of Cape Town museum. Definitely not worth the money i spent.

He begun in the City Hall to explain us Cape Town \u2018s history, very important for the rest of the tour.\nHis english is just perfect ! \nThe surprise : tea time with a lovely lady who cooked so amazing doughnuts !\nA perfect afternoon !
