One of the biggest concerns about visiting the townships is ‘voyeurism’ Many visitors appear interested to take a tour of the townships but are concerned about offending the local residents.

They are run as half day tours (usually scheduled tours although it is possible to take a private tour if preferred), either in the mornings or afternoons. On Sunday mornings a visit to a gospel church service is incorporated into the route.

There are several reasons why you may wish to consider taking a township tour.

• There is more to Cape Town than the V&A Waterfront, Table Mountain, Winelands and Cape of Good Hope. A visit is more complete when you see ‘the other side’
• They will provide you with an extraordinary insight in how many capetonians live
• You will be made to feel very welcome in the Townships. There will be also be an opportunity to purchase some locally made craft.
• Entering the townships on a tour is educational and contributes towards improving the economy of the area.

Please let me know if you have any further questions about visiting the townships.
