Overview

Ready to experience a side of Cape Town like a local, with a local? This is a tour, unlike any other! If you want to take a step away from the touristy path, there's no better way than by diving into the city's alternative side. Welcome to Woodstock! If you're done with the main highlights, why not step away and take a less-traveled path that will show you an unexpected side of Cape Town? Follow a local guide on a private tour full of surprises and check out Old Biscuit Mill, District six museum, and more that let the true form of the city shine! Withlocals Off the Beaten Track Tour™ is one of Withlocals' signature tours available in major cities worldwide. We work with passionate local guides who earn a fair fee. We support local economies by only offering local produce and prevent over-tourism with only small non-intrusive groups. Our tours are carbon-neutral and away from the standard tourist routes.

A perfect introduction to Cape Town

Published on Oct, 2024

Gilbert was the perfect guide for our first day in Cape Town. He provided is with a great overview of the city while mixing in the history and points of interest. We loved the fact that he shared family history that brought many of the areas to life and that he tailored the trip to our needs.
