Experience the best of
Cape Town with Withlocals

"Theo gave us a fantastic day - his local knowledge was great and was extremely warm and welcoming and happy to adjust the day to suit us. Thanks Theo"

"Gilbert sent us Meetingpoint and a picture of him, so it was really easy to meet. Gilbert is very friendly and knowledgeable. He adjusted the tour to our interests and we got to know the development and history of woodstock. He showed us examples and the time with him flew by with a wink of an eye. Thank you Gilbert and please carry on to educate the african youth/ people ! We can definitely recommend a tour with you!"

"We learned so much — not only about South Africa’s history in general, but especially about the history of District 6 and the Woodstock area. His knowledge and the way he shares these stories give real depth and understanding to the places you visit. It was honestly a highlight of our trip so far. With Gilbert, every interaction, conversation, and encounter feels genuine and heartfelt. He showed us things we would never have discovered on our own if we had tried to explore these areas without a guide. Gilbert is doing incredibly important work by telling the stories of the hardships and injustices that still affect the people living in these communities today. We truly couldn’t have wished for a better day. "

"Our family of four had the best time with Rushdi. He was friendly, very informative and patient with our kids. He made sure that all our points of interest were covered. We really appreciate Rushdi going above and beyond when we discovered a booking mistake on our end and he was still able to work with our schedule and still be our tour guide. We have a much better understanding of Cape Town and its history because of Rushdi. Highly recommend Rushdi to anyone looking for a tour guide in Cape Town!"

"Our tour with Sebastian was definitely one of the highlights of our time in Cape Town! He's incredibly knowledgeable, friendly, and has a great sense of humor. We learned so much about the city's history and its people. I highly recommend booking a tour with Sebastian, and if we ever return, we’ll definitely book with him again!"

"Elizabeth, our guide ,was truly fantastic . We had the best experience over three days . I want to afford Elizabeth the highest accolade and recommend her to you unreservedly. She took us to look places away from the crowds and tailored the itinerary perfectly to suit what we wanted to see. She is outstanding and her knowledge is phenomenal. This entire tour was conducted so professionally and peppered with humour and kindness. "

"What a brilliant afternoon with Gilbert showing us the ‘off the beaten track’ tour. He’s was entertaining and very educational and we saw and learnt things we just wouldn’t have discovered on our own. I won’t ruin some of the places he took us but it definitely was as hidden parts of the city we wouldn’t have discovered on our own. Book with Gilbert if you can. I think he does other routes too."

"Wonderful experience of the hidden Cape Town Gilbert took us from postoffice turned food hall, through shebeens and fancy chocolate bars into little private museums and hotels - who just hid a tiny bit of the city’s history. All along sharing his own experience of the city and the city history "

"Chris was an amazing guide, who firstly was very patient and understanding that we were running late with my aunt being under the weather. He was also very accommodating with the tailoring the tour to us and dealing with my endless questions! It was an informative tour but one full of laughs and have a taste to Cape Town. I couldn't recommend Chris more!"

"We had a really good day out with Theo, his knowledge of the Cape Town area was amazing and well delivered. "
