Everyday life for many people in South Africa is harsh and to begin to understand why this outstanding tour of Cape Town starts in District Six. Collecting you from your hotel, Cape Town Day Tours drives you in comfort to District Six. The areas were once a kaleidoscope of cultures and home to thousands of people. Exploring the City and having its history retold by your experienced tour guide, the history of South Africa begins to unfold.
Seeing the oldest mosque in South Africa exemplifies the diverse culture that makes Cape Town what it is and what District Six was is just part of the tour. A visit to the District Six museum opens up the history only a little further.
Because the District Six Museum is closed on Sundays, the township component of the Apartheid and Modern Day South Africa Township Experience includes a township church service. From District Six this fascinating tour of Cape Town heads to Langa, the oldest formal black township in Cape Town. Experience township life. The local markets, street vendors and arts and crafts centre are visited. For some, an exciting component of the tour is a visit to a traditional healer.
Getting closer to real-life experience also includes a visit to a creche. That is not only a fun place for kids but also a refuge and safe haven for many youngsters living in some of the harshest conditions.
Furthermore, this exceptional Cape Town half-day tour includes visits to Bonteheuwel, Nyanga, Crossroads, Khayelitsha and Gugulethu.
All in all, for anyone wanting to experience a brief history of South Africa from a Cape Town perspective, Cape Town Day Tours has it nailed.
Departing from the world-famous V&A Waterfront, the Robben Island Ferry races you across the ocean to the iconic Robben Island. Here the tour becomes even more exciting where you may also get the opportunity to stand in the cell where Nelson Mandela was held captive. The guided bus tour of the island is one of the best tours in the City.
