Godfrey's former home
Township Cultural Tour
My business partner and friend, Godfrey grew up in a Langa shack and has lived through tremendous change both in the country and his own life. With nine years experience, you can trust Godfrey to plan an authentic experience for you.
Informal settlements, known as townships, are a result of the history of apartheid and the reality of current high unemployment levels and poverty in South Africa. None the less, these magical spaces pay tribute to the spirit of human triumph and allow the visitor an insight into South African culture that is hard to find anywhere else. You will learn what Ubuntu means as you touch and live the authentic South African experience.
On this tour you will be visiting Langa, Cape Town’s oldest township. The tour includes a historical account of townships and allows the visitor an opportunity to visit various projects and community initiatives designed for the upliftment of the community. We also have some fun by visiting a local school, a traditional healer and tasting some home brewed African beer!
