We were very lucky (perhaps unlucky for Faizal!) to be the only ones to go on the tour on Freedom Day (a national holiday). Faizal accommodated our same day booking request and we were the only 2 on the tour. It allowed us to have great conversations with Faizal and have personal dialogue with him about the history of the... More

Faizal Gangat took me on a tour in Langa. He picked me up at home with his car, the tour was brillant. He explained a lot about the South African way of thinking and living and about the history of the country and the township. It was impressive how people try to develop and improve their conditions by aquiring more... More

Faizal, our very knowledgeable, down to earth guide, took us on a walking tour of the famous District Six area, the Langa Township, the Cape Flats and Athlone. We were in South Africa for two weeks and, I can honestly say, that this was one of the highlights of our time in Cape Town. We felt safe at all times... More

We were very lucky, firstly, for finding this tour inside the wide offer shown in Cape Tourism Office and secondly for being the only 2 people in the tour this afternoon. The best thing is that the walking part in Langa Township is guided for a person who lives there and of course knows the neighborhood. It is good to... More

Thanks for the great tour, we book only a night before and got a personal tour on the next morning. We got Picked up and brought home.

I travelled to Cape Town with a youth group in September, Faizal developed a really bespoke tour of Langa and District Six, which really met the neds of the group and why they were there. The tour was delivered with great passion, providing a brilliant balance of South Africa's history, the successes of the new south Africa and the ongoing... More

The township tour with Cape Capers Tours was a very life enriching experience. It gave me the opportunity to experience their life community life, their struggles and success, their hopes. I so enjoyed the people at the B&B, they were wonderful. I found "the heart of Africa" - the people, the community. Thank you Faizal. More

My friends and I are from Cape Town and took the Township Experience tour organized by Cape Capers Tours. We went to the township called Langa just outside Cape Town. It was such an interesting tour as we had the opportunity to meet and talk to the people who live there and to visit some of their projects. If you... More

I booked both Robben Island ticket and township experience. Very good organisation and high profesional level of guides. I booked by e-mail without any cash in advance, and everything went in the right direction. They picked us up at the hotel and left at Robben island ferry bout departure perfectly on time. More

The Cape Capers Tour of Langa provides a unique insight into the collaborative way of life in one of Cape Town’s sprawling townships. En route to the township Faizal Gangat gives an emotive and unreserved account of life for the black migrant workers who initially settled in Langa and sets the scene for how the township has developed since. The... More
