What you’ll do

Explore ‘hipster haven’ as you weave through the streets of Woodstock with your host, a neighborhood whose Victorian houses and old docklands warehouses have experienced an urban revival of late. With your local Cape Town host by your side, the warm and creative spirit of the locale will no doubt shine through. 

There’s a vibrant energy that flows through the streets and your host will open your eyes to the true nature of this ‘village in a city’ as you amble through the mural-lined streets with a coffee in hand (to blend in with the hipsters, of course).

You’ll visit the Old Biscuit Mill, the establishment many credit with kickstarting Woodstock’s revolution. On Saturdays, you’ll find an eclectic food market while during the week the vibe is more tranquil with its unique stores and coffee shops.

You can wander into artists’ studios, see provocative street art and stop by design-centered districts like the Woodstock Exchange. There’s never a dull moment here.

    We had a great tour with Tafa. He is friendly and has good knowledge of the history of Cape Town and is a good storyteller. He drives a good car suitable for 6 persons. He takes his guiding task serious and we felt comfortable and safe. His English was good. We recommend Tafa if you are looking for a good guide or chauffeur.

    Our guide was very knowledgeable and friendly. Her English was very good and understandable. She gave us a local feel for Hiroshima since she and her family are from the area. I would definitely recommend Masayo as a guide in the Hiroshima area.

    I think it was overall and incredible experience. We dis see a lot and learned a lot of cultural facts. Would have maybe liked a pass at a few more temples or areas of Kyoto but would have been pressed to get them done in 5 hours

    Pascal was very flexible and offered great suggestions. He showed us parts of Montmartre that we would have otherwise not seen. He took photos of our group and was very flexible with our plans.
