Half Day visit to the Cape Townships.
Published on Jan, 2025
This is an incredibly heartfelt tour that I recommend to all of Cape Town’s passing tourists. I highly recommend doing this educational tour as it showcases how the poorest live in the Cape Townships. You get to experience the immense culture and history and you leave with a new perspective on life.
Definitely one of the most moving experiences I have had in CT
Published on Dec, 2024
I can highly recommend doing this tour so that you can get a full view of Cape Town. This was an amazingly guided tour that portrayed all of the cultural, economic and historical aspects of a Township through stories and experiences of the community.
This tour is a blessing to do.

MoAfrika arranged for us to do this half day tour during our stay in Cape Town as a last-minute trip and there were no difficulties whatsoever with booking and transport. This is a really interesting tour of the townships and it shows you the meaningful side of Cape Town. It was impressive and emotional seeing all the every-day life of the poor.
Touching experience at the Cape Townships

Must do if you are visiting in the Cape Town area. It is an incredible sight to see the history as well as the culture residing in the townships here. The stories that we heard from the locals were heart-warming and id like to thank MoAfrika for suggesting us this highly recommended tour while we were in our Cape Town.
