Cultural Township Tour
Cape Town Tours - Save 10%
This morning Township Tour offers an insight into and interaction with cultures, communities and individuals living in our rainbow nation.
Today we will visit the Townships - a tour that offers you an insight and interaction with different cultures, communities and individuals. Witness everyday life in a harsh environment and share in people's struggles, hopes and achievements. See why 27 April 1994 was such an important day in their lives (first democratic elections).
We will start with a tour of the District Six Museum. See the oldest mosque in S.A. In District Six we explore the site that was once home to thousands of people of various hues and cultures, but is now a desolate wasteland because of forced removals in 1966.
We also visit Langa, the oldest formal black township in Cape Town. Witness first hand the living conditions and accommodation conceived at the height of the apartheid era. We end our tour with a visit to Khayelitsha. We then proceed back to the hotel.
