Top Western Cape Language Classes

This private cooking class is the perfect way to expand your South African cooking repertoire and learn how to make Cape Malay specialties. Instead of opting for a large group cooking experience, enjoy the luxury of a private cooking class in the intimate setting of a local’s home. Discover family recipes that you wouldn’t find in a cookbook, and make a mix of dishes, such as rotis and chicken curry.

Get immersed in this experience hosted by a local changemaker! Enter the inspiring world underneath Cape Town's touristy surface. A Side by Side experience is the perfect, hands-on way to escape the tourist trap, live like a local, and make an impact. A percentage of every booking goes directly back to the changemakers we've partnered with in the form of year-end gifts: equipment, bursaries, and cash grants. To ensure your changemaker-hosted experience runs smoothly and guests' every last need is met, an SbS guide will be by your side throughout, from pick-up to drop-off (if you add the Hotel Pickup add-on). Your guide will provide you all the background info you need to know and settle the entrance fees on your behalf. Optionally add the Photoshoot add-on for HD pics/vids of you in action sent by Google Drive same day. Learn, laugh, imagine, bond, and come away a changed person after sharing this experience with some seriously inspiring locals.

Join us for a meaningful journey to Robben Island, one of South Africa’s most powerful historical sites. This is where Nelson Mandela was imprisoned for 18 years during the struggle against apartheid. During the visit, you will learn about the history of the island and the sacrifices made for freedom. It is a unique and inspiring experience that allows you to walk through an important part of South Africa’s history and reflect on the courage that helped bring freedom to the country.
