Hello! I'm Claudia — your local Cape Town expert with a global heart.
Originally from the U.S., I’ve called Cape Town home for nearly 40 years, and I’ve never stopped falling in love with its dramatic landscapes, vibrant culture, and warm people. As a registered private tourist guide, I specialise in tailor-made tours that go well beyond the usual highlights.
Whether we’re exploring the iconic Table Mountain, Cape Point, or hidden coastal gems, I’ll show you the city's best photo opportunities, flavours, and stories — all at your pace and to your taste.
I am passionate about road cycling, art, and photography, so I bring a creative eye to every tour. Love food and wine? Let’s head to the Winelands for tastings that include wine-and-chocolate pairings, biltong, cheese, and unforgettable local cuisine — from Cape Malay to seafood feasts and sunset picnics.
Do you prefer something active or outdoorsy? We can walk along the Sea Point Promenade, visit Kirstenbosch Gardens and sculpture gardens, or browse local markets. I also offer customised trips to Hermanus, the Garden Route, and Big-5 safaris near Port Elizabeth for those with more time.
Let me craft a private tour that feels more like travelling with an experienced friend—someone who knows all the shortcuts., stories, and secret spots. Cape Town is magical… come discover why!
