4 months agoWe did the tour with Buntu and he was the most amazing guide ever. He loved to talk about his home, was open for all questions and it was like walking around with a friend! Thanks so much, 10/10 recommend :-)

3 weeks agoGreat and inspiring tour in Langa Township with Don, our local guide. Highly recommended and full of emotions — it’s definitely worth making the trip here in Cape Town. As the coffee guy in Langa told us: “By enjoying this experience, you’re not a tourist, but a visitor.” Thanks again to Don and the team! For all tourists: This is a super safe tour. We drove there in our own car and parked right in front of the centre. Don, the local guide, knows everyone in Langa.

2 weeks agoIt was such an amazing tour with Nela, you truly changed my narrative I had about the hood. It was beautiful to see growth and to learn about the history of Langa township. Nela was such a delight known by so many in his community. It felt safe and that we were I. Good hands. Keep up the good work.

a month agoWhat an unforgettable and eye-opening experience! Thanks to Buntu, we were able to discover the township in an authentic way — even attending a Sunday morning church service. He was a fantastic guide — answering all our questions and as a local resident of Langa offering a unique perspective on life in the township. Highly recommended!

a month agoJust back from an interactive and insightful walking tour through Langa with our fantastic host, Smiley. Highly recommend. Was a positive, educational, and eye-opening experience for our 11&12 year old kids as well. This tour insights conversations and opens hearts and minds.
