The Township Sisters are known for their personal walking Township Tours around the community of Masiphumelele, situated on route to Cape Point between Noordhoek and Kommetjie. It’s an experience you won’t forget.
Experience it
"Masi" is home to more than 40 000 residents with the majority living in shacks. Life in the township is cultural and festive, however many people do live in poor and difficult circumstances. The residents have lived up to their name ‘We will succeed” - Mandy is one of those people!
Walk with Mandy, your tour guide, through her home community and experience the vibrancy and life to be found in a South African township. When you do a township tour in Cape Town, you will experience a whole different side of Cape Town.
The beauty of a township is in the people. Walk around Masi, hearing the history of the township as well as Mandy's personal story. You will meet interesting people along the walking tour and chat about various centres that you pass along the way (clinic, children's home, recycling centre).
