Highlights
  • Langa - HOST EXAMPLE:
    The lead Zumba entrepreneur has a one-of-a-kind flare and personality that makes you come alive. On a water break, he will share his inspiring story of how dance and exercise got him out of a life as a gangster.


On the drive to Langa (if ‘Hotel Pickup add-on’ added), your guide will give you some key information about where you’re headed, who the community partners are, what you’ll experience, and general best practices to bear in mind.

Upon arrival, you’ll be greeted by the community partners and your guide will help break the ice a bit before jumping into the African Zumba & Stories experience.

Try your hand (and foot) at some of the local styles: African Dance, Afro-Fusion, Kasi Jive, Pantsula, Kwela, Traditional Xhosa & Traditional Tswana.

The time together is always dynamic and responsive to guest preferences, but generally it’s evenly split 3 ways: (A) Zumba dancing, (B) Storytelling & advocacy, (C) Grace time & natural interaction.

Dance not your thing? Jam out on our djembe drums!

N.B. NOTE: Kids from a community-based after-school program will only be present if you book an option that includes the ‘Kids add-on’.

Amazing! - What a remarkable place! The food was amazing! Authentic Portuguese gastronomy. If you enjoy food the way it's supposed to taste, without all the spices and garlic overpowering the awesome taste of the food you are ordering, this is the place for you! Amazing food from the appetizers to the dessert! Great atmosphere and top notch service! Loved all the details and charm it had to offer! Went for our anniversary and they went above and beyond our expectations Would definitely recommend it to everyone looking for a quaint place to celebrate or just for a great meal!
