History Tour

Description

Discover how the landscape was claimed, tamed and shaped -
by following the route to Africa’s resources and unravelling their appropriation.

Your journey traces footsteps that reveal far more than just 350-years of colonial overlay and influence.

Cape Town is called ‘The Gateway to Africa’, and as you track visitors from Stone Age times onwards to these shores, you’ll find out why this applies.

Visit astounding locations, see the sights, savour the food, taste the wines while getting to understand the complexity of the country.

Be addressed in at least three languages daily, summonsed alternatively by church bells and the call of the muezzin and startled by the noon day gun.

Roll back three centuries in the two oldest buildings in the land to unveil a rich social overlay.

Hear first hand accounts of life on Robben Island, a living museum and World Heritage Site that represent landmarks in the timeline to freedom

Unravel the past, from pre history to present times, through stories of iconic men of their time and other remarkable individuals.
