What you’ll do

You’ll follow your host as they lead you on a journey through the Mother City, and we guarantee you’ll soon see why locals proudly think their city is the most beautiful in the world.

Of course, we’d be lying if we said you could discover all of Cape Town’s must-sees in just a day, but your local Cape Town host will share with you as much as they can of what makes their city so unique.

Enticed by big city lights and cosmopolitan cafe culture, or do you see yourself on the beaches of the southern peninsula, soaking up the laid-back lifestyle? Our hosts have always got time for good food, so just let us know what you’d like to try from the city’s diverse and eclectic food scene.

There are so many spectacular hikes, pristine beaches, historic streets, and dreamy vineyards to experience that you couldn’t see it all in a day - but you can sure try.

    Our guide Shuto, went out of his way to show us aspects of Tokyo that amazed us. He perfectly paced the tour to accomodate my slow pace walking and his excellent interpersonal skills meant he kept us entertained with interesting insights into Japan’s culture, history and lifestyle. We couldn’t recommend this experience more highly.

    Ayaka was wonderful! Our day was perfectly planned and exactly what we wanted to do. She was so helpful and patient with all of our questions. We had the greatest day and learned so much! Our visit to Tokyo will always be memorable because of Ayaka! :-)

    Tafa gave us an amazing experience sampling a variety of local cuisines. Starting in Bo-Kaap with Malay dishes and on to kore traditional African dishes and then for an open market experience. Tafa made the experience a delight engaging in great conversation!
