Highlights
  • Cape Town - ‘BLEND THE CITY’
    Tour Overview

The tour you’ll be taking is called ‘Blend the City.’ By traveling, you meet and support entrepreneurs in Cape Town’s very first township called Langa. The legacy of segregation during Apartheid has the left the city divided along racial lines to this day. By economically empowering townships and stepping into them, we integrate the city. And you also get a ‘blend’ of our favourite experiences.

TIMING NOTE:
If you only have the morning available and therefore need a half-day AM tour, please book a start time between 7-9am, and we will truncate the experiences to ensure you’re dropped back off at your requested location within 4 hours after pick-up or meeting at Guga S’thebe centre in Langa.
— DISCLAIMER: Half-day AM tours exclude kids from the African Zumba experience, as they are busy schooling during the day.

Additional Information

Get immersed in this short tour led by a local changemaker!

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 all experiences run smoothly and guests’ every last need is met, an SbS guide will be by your side throughout the entire tour 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 admission fees on your behalf.

Optionally add the Photoshoot add-on for HD pics/vids of you in action sent by the Google Drive same day; and/or the Prepaid Meal add-on to share a meal with the changemaker who led your tour after the tour’s finished.

Location
Cape Town City Hall
Darling Street
Upon booking we'll send you detailed instructions with supporting Google Maps street view images to ensure you don't get lost.
