Private Tour
Duration: Full Day
We spend the morning on Table Mountain. Starting the experience with an aerial view of the city allows guests to map the metropolis in their heads before descending into its history. There is ample time to escape the crowds and experience the quiet splendor of this ancient rock formation—one of the planet’s great energy centers.
Cape Town is deceptive; the historic inner city is small and often mistaken for the city in its entirety. This full-day journey connects you with its earliest days as the home of the Khoesan, right through to today. We explore the indigenous origins of Camissa (the "place of sweet waters") and the thousands of years of stories that predated the arrival of the Dutch.
The experience moves between foot and vehicle as we delve into the widest diversity of defining stories. We include District Six and the District Six Museum, the old slave quarter, the Bo-Kaap, and key historic sites. If time allows, we also visit the Slave Lodge to broaden the perspective on the city's foundations.
"To understand the city, one must first see the Mother from above, then walk her streets to hear the echoes of the sweet waters."
