Walk Cape Town’s Woodstock street art with a local guide, 2 hours of murals and stories for $37 per person.

“Sipo is a great guide and not only shared with us about the art but was wonderful to interact with. When we travel, the difference between a good tour and a great one comes down to the guide. We enjoyed meeting both of them and learning not only about the art but also about history, culture, politics, and much more in South Africa. We felt safe with our guides and they really went out of their way to get to know us as people too. Would definitely recommend this tour to someone who enjoys something a little different and less “touristy”.”
