Dive headfirst into an exclusive event led by a local pioneer! Discover the motivational world hidden beneath the well-trodden tourist paths of Cape Town.
A Side by Side experience is the ideal, hands-on method to evade the generic tourist experience, live in the local style, and make a positive difference. A proportion of each reservation goes directly back to the pioneers we’ve collaborated with, in the form of year-end gifts - equipment, scholarships, and financial grants.
For a flawless experience where all your needs are fulfilled, an SbS guide will accompany you throughout the whole event, hosted by the pioneer, right from pick-up to drop-off (if you opt for the Hotel Pickup add-on). Your guide will give you all the background knowledge you need and handle all your payments.
Optionally, you can avail the Photoshoot add-on for High-Definition pictures/videos of your experience, delivered via Google Drive on the same day.
Experience, enjoy, visualize, connect, and transform as a person by sharing this experience with these highly inspiring locals.
