Additional Information

Get immersed in this experience hosted by a local changemaker! Enter the inspiring world underneath Cape Town’s touristy surface.

A Side by Side experience is the perfect, hands-on way to escape the tourist trap, live like a local, and make an impact. A percentage of every booking goes directly back to the changemakers we’ve partnered with in the form of year-end gifts: equipment, bursaries, and cash grants.

To ensure your changemaker-hosted experience runs smoothly and guests’ every last need is met, an SbS guide will be by your side throughout, from pick-up to drop-off (if you add the Hotel Pickup add-on). Your guide will provide you all the background info you need to know and settle the entrance fees on your behalf.

Optionally add the Photoshoot add-on for HD pics/vids of you in action sent by Google Drive same day.

Learn, laugh, imagine, bond, and come away a changed person after sharing this experience with some seriously inspiring locals.

Great for all ages. - The organizers were very relaxed and made us feel very welcomed even though we had no experience with drumming. My son (6) absolutely loved it and he is asking when the next one is happening! We both left feeling like we had achieved something. It was a very enjoyable experience and I would recommend to it to anyone, for all ages.
