Overview of your Cape town tour:

Cape Town affectionally called the "Mother City" is a very cosmopolitan city that is steeped in history and culture. It was discovered by the Dutch East India Company who navigated the stormy seas to and from Europe en route to the Spice Route. Table Mountain's magnificence presence lured the intrepid seafarers into the Table Bay Harbor in1652. And that's how Cape Town became a refreshment station. What better way to explore the city's highlights than to start at the oldest building on the Foreshore of Cape Town! The tour combines easily walkable portions of several of the city's gems, which paints a colourful picture of our past. This city walking tour combines history, arts and culture, and local culinary favorites. After returning to your pick-up point, you will be left with unforgettable memories of the day and this vibrant and beautiful city. There is nowhere better. I can customize this to accommodate your requests and time frame.
