A must-do!

I can highly recommend this tour: The sights were truly highlights particular to Cape Town, and the gems (a coffee shop, a bakery shop and the Eastern Bazaar) you wouldn’t have seen otherwise but don’t want to miss. I was privileged to be the only one so got a private tour with my guide, Sebastian. I learned a lot about the political and historical background as well as cultural details, which I greatly appreciated. Sebastian is a well of information and doesn’t hesitate to draw from his own life experience; together with his kind, positive attitude and witty humour you are sure to spend a great morning in his company.

Great tour with Dev to get an impression of Capetown

Our tourguide Dev was awesome. It was fun and memorable how he told about life and history in Capetown and South Africa. He gave us background about part of the city, buildings, traditions, monuments. I would highly recommend a tour with Dev. He can help you to understand the City of Capetown and is absolutely helpful to have a good time there!

Lovely Walking Tour

YSH Travel - Parinita was great. The highlight for us was an informative & detailed walk-through of the Castle of Good Hope, Bo-Kaap and other hidden gems... Parinita covered hundreds of years of local history with ease! She had lots of knowledge and showed us all around the town. Also gave us good tips on some places to eat . Recommend Parinita for your future travels.
