Experience tomorrow the best of
Cape Town with Withlocals

"We spent 4 fantastic hours on a walking tour with wonderful Sebastian. We saw such a variety of areas and sights in Cape Town and felt we had a much fuller understanding of the historical backdrop, as well as a unique insight into the city's present, and the daily life of a local. Sebastian was a lot of fun and made sure the tour was perfectly tailored to us. We came away feeling we now knew Cape Town much better than we ever would have discovering it on our own. We're glad we booked it for near the start of our trip. It also helped us to feel safe in the City on our own for the rest of the trip, as we were able to ask Sebastian for advice and guidance and also see what a friendly place it was, and with excellent security presence within the city. Sebastian generously followed up after our tour with lots of suggestions for the rest of our trip. Thanks for everything Sebastian, we're so glad we got to meet and spend time with you.

"We spent 2 days walking with Parinita and got a great exposure to the old part of the city. She was knowledgeable, friendly and a pleasure to be with. She had a plan but also made adjustments to accommodate any request we made. "

"So helpful and fun and knowledgeable! We loved our experience with Sebastian! We would book again! "

"We had an outstanding 4 hour walking tour with Sebastian - a detailed historical tour of Cape Town matched with an openness about South Africa past & present. A joyful and informative afternoon to be repeated next time in SA. "

"We had a great afternoon with Gilbert. He arrived at the allotted time and place. We walked from the Old Town Hall towards District 6, dropping in on a cultural centre ( very interesting) on the way. Gilbert gave us excellent historical context to buildings and street art. He is a font of knowledge and answered all our questions. It became very clear that the sad history of District 6 clearance is very close to his heart as his own parents and grandparents used to live here. From District 6 we took an über to the areas of Woodstock and Saltriver where gentrification is setting in which became the topic. We would have never dared to visit these areas without Gilbert… and that would have been our great loss. Such interesting buildings and friendly people everywhere. A big thank you to you, Gilbert, for sharing this with us! Katja&Chris "

"We thoroughly enjoyed this tour. It covers so much and provides a terrific overview of Cape Town and the history and culture. Sebastian is so well prepared and yet so casual and conversational. He’s very enjoyable to be with and does a great job introducing you to the city he clearly loves so much. "

"It was my first local tour and I had such a great time with Gilbert. He showed me some hidden gems and I learned a lot about SA history. He was able to customize my experience to my needs and I really felt I was safe and welcomed. I feel like I gained a friend and I will definitely book him again next time I visit. I also appreciated all the extra advice and suggestions he gave me to enjoy for the rest of my trip. "

"Sebastian was knowledgeable, fun, and entertaining! He took good care of our family with two teenagers. The tour combine history, culture, and local businesses of interest. He shared stories of his life and family that provided an intimate perspective of Cape Town. Thank you!!!"

"Sebastian is a true local and can guide you thoroughly through Cape Town's history and add the contemporary insight into it."

"Gilbert was the perfect guide for our tour and helped us with his knowledge and insights to not only understand the historical background of Cape Town, but to feel the vibe of it. Thanks so much for this entertaining and interesting afternoon - we can highly recommend Gilbert!"
