Unik Bo-Kaap-tur med madsmagning, Western Cape
Beskrivelse
Vi mødes på et populært lokalt spisested i Rose Street, en af Bo-Kaaps grænser. Det er her, vi begynder vores rejse ned ad nogle af Bo-Kaaps ældste veje for at udforske dette 370 år gamle kvarter på en sjov, men informativ måde. Vi stopper ved en lokal madvært for at prøve nogle lækre traditionelle snacks og bagværk med te, hvorefter vi slentrer ned ad Chiappinni St for at ende tilbage ved Bo-Kaap Deli. Andre ting at bemærke

Beautiful History and Culture. Knowledgeable guide. Lovely Art and murals associated with the tour. Excellent for pictures
I was very disappointed with this booking. I would have rated it a negative star if that was an option. I arrived at the location 15 minutes early. The guide did NOT show. I waited 45 minutes. I contacted Viator which could not get in touch with the guide but emailed them. An hour after my scheduled tour they contacted me and indicated to the fact that I was a solo traveler. I assume they make more $ if there is a bigger group. I would have appreciated if they had let me know that they did not want to do the tour then I would have arranged with another guide. I not only had to pay for an Uber there but then had to pay to be picked up again. I was only in Cape Town 2 days so my time was valuable and this was a huge waste of time. Do not book this tour. Unreliable.
Anthony I am sorry but after missing so many Viator tours with negative reviews I am considering removing my listing but as a final attempt to solve this issue I will say something and if they remove my listing so be it. Viator and the traveller is at fault. When coming to a heritage community where people live travellers have to be more conscious and operate differently. Booking local tours using a US operator when you're a solo booker does not make sense. Viator takes 25%, pays out a week after and limits communication between the guest and traveller making it difficult to manage. I have requested that Viator look into improvements with their platform so hosts are notified when bookings are due but somehow this feature which all other OTA's have is to hard to incorporate. The second thing is that you did not book with me, I don't do or list tours for Sundays so please check your booking and direct your frustration to the right people and next time just search for a local guide in the area you looking to tour or find the name of the guide and search him, you will normally be able to contact guides directly. Most guides are happy to get paid on the day of tour so you don't have to worry about paying with a no-show. Its a more responsible way of travelling and remember convenience is destructive!
The experience was excellent, we walked through the streets of Bo Kaap and learned a lot about the history, saw beautiful places, would recommend.
Hello Isabel, thank you for your recommendation and for choosing us. All the best for your travels! With Salaams Zaki
Not much to tell really, very poor communication with your operator, who turned out to be a no show. But really dissatisfied with Viator’s handling of the whole thing.
Viator needs to take some responsibility for the booking not just the sale. As I mentioned to Gary I miss many Viator tours because of poor notifications and hidden bookings. I logged on twice that day to check for bookings and did not see any resulting in a customer having to wait for nothing in a location they dont know, I know that its stressful but always costs me in the end. I don't think a negative review for the host is fair, especially since I did offer an explanation and gave full a refund.
Fantastic experience nobody should miss about a sadly dissipating neighbourhood that should have UNESCO world heritage status before it is too late. My guide Zaki was incredibly knowledgeable and I really appreciated all his time and trouble with me since other members of the booked tour had cancelled.
Renata I truly appreciate the time we got to spend together, you're a very humble and kind person, our youth are in good hands :-) Take care my friend!
We learned so much about the community, from its beginnings to today! The buildings were beautiful and it was so nice to experience one of the oldest areas in the city. The snacks were divine!
It was such a pleasure having you guys on tour I had an awesome time, thank you! Send my love and greetings to everyone!
Great tour with an amazing local guide Zaki who is knowledgeable and passionate. Highly recommend this tour!
Hey Tony, thanks again for choosing me, and for the chats, and for the recommendation :D You're a gentleman!
This is an outstanding tour if you want the history and culture of this amazing Community! Our guide was fabulous , he is charming, knowledgeable and engaging. We were treated to a lovely taste of authentic South African cuisine prepared by the famous chef Zaine Misbach in her home!!
Hey Kathleen, just wanted to say hi and thanks for the compliments, you are very kind :-) All the very best from Bo-Kaap!
This was a wonderful experience. This private tour was wonderful and felt special having our guide a true local to Bo kamp and give a true history of the area. Extremely knowledgeable and fun! Can’t recommend enough. The mini bites were lovely as well!!
Thank you for choosing me and for the awesome review Melanie you are very kind. All the best to you both!
I had a wonderful experience learning about the area's history and culture. The area is rich in culture and it was exciting taking photos in front of the colorful homes.
