 Cultural tours of South Africa.

Q:What is a Cultural Tour?

A: These are people to people tours where we will introduce you to the people,culture,customs,traditions and lifestyles of the various tribal/ethnic groups of South Africa.These tours are unique in that we move from the Urban into the rural areas where you will experience living tribal culture as it exists today,where the past meets the present in the ever changing current of time.

All of our South Africa Cultural Tours are locally privately guided tours,locally means guides who grew up in those area’s who have been trained and are registered guides.

Our Eastern Cape Cultural Tours and Venda Art and Craft Tours are designed to ensure that tourism contributes directly to the development of previously disadvantaged communities.

What type of lodging do I expect when I am on of these South Africa Cultural Tour,whether its in the Eastern Cape or Venda.

See some of our South Africa Cultural Tour Lodging.

The lodging we use are all rural guest houses,Bed and Breakfasts,smaller hotels,with Western Style bathrooms,or village backpackers that have traditional huts to earth homes with shared ablutions.

These traditional huts with western style bedding are mainly found on the Wild Coast Hike along with quaint smaller coastal hotels that have en suite bathrooms.
