I am very passionate about my city Cape Town and especially the wide variety of tourism gems we have on offer. I am enthusiastic and have an attitude of ''joie de vivre''. Friendly , outgoing and culturally sensitive to your needs. I engage with my clients on a level where they feel comfortable - not being subjective, but giving an overview from a colonial perspective and a first nation perspective. My ability to give a balanced view point on how Cape Town is what it is today is appreciated by all guests. I respect and value all cultures, religions and creeds and am always very sensitive to each guests needs. My love for the tourism industry is evident in my approach to tour guiding - I share my knowledge with the guests and also encourage interaction and dialogue. As an aviation geek, I am passionate about Aircraft and love to chat about global issues involving aviation. I also love to chat to guests about their passions and listen to their stories and adventures. It is important to listen to your guests and make them feel at home in your country. As a true ambassador of South Africa, I welcome everybody to our shores and will always share the history, culture, food and all our unique offerings to our visitors. As a representative of the First Nations of South Africa, I can give guests an unique insight on our history and our development to become a free nation. We honor and respect our traditions and we are proud to share it with the rest of the world. Registered Culture Tourist Guide for Cape Metropole.
