Meet the Locals

Hey there, I'm Debbie! A Durbanite by birth, but a Cape Townian by destiny. Cape Town is the melting pot of all culture, and daily joy to explore, whether that is the incredible social scene of bars and nightlife, the variety and world-class level of dining experiences, unmatched outdoor adventures (mountain hikes and wine farm frolics), picturesque beaches, and amazing water sports. I love it ALL. ´

Well howzit! I am the go-to if you have stamina. I tend to exhaust my friends. They think they will relax but after having done a sunrise hike before 8am, there is a good chance we could be surfing at 11am, and cocktails by 1pm and sunset drinks before heading out. I’m pretty strong on all knowledge in the city region down to Simon’s Town

Hello hi. Keval here, originally from Jo’burg but have spent the better part of two decades in Cape Town. I am the Director for our Gay and Lesbian Archives institute which delves into preserving all LGBTI+ history on the African continent. So with that I know our LGBT hangouts in Cape Town! Ask me anything

You can call me Natz! I was born in Johannesburg but have spent my life in Cape Town since I was little. I live by the southern peninsula in a place called Simon's Town – a coastal spot famous for its military history. It's home to the famous penguin beach and a number of other highlights, and the picturesque Chapman's Peak drive is 15 minutes away. Chat to me for recommendations on what to do in the "deep south"!

Hey there! I am one of the rare people who are actually born and raised in Cape Town and still live here. I am a new mom to a lovely daughter Amelie which means I live a gentler life these days. Traveling Cape Town with children is easy when you have the right list of child-friendly activities. Do get in touch if you need to hear more about how moms and dads can experience Cape Town with little ones

Hey there, I'm Nick! I've called Cape Town home for fifteen years and have a passion for all things food and wine. This is the culinary capital of South Africa and I have tons of personal recommendations on where to go. I'm big into enriching cultural experiences too, so get in touch with me if you're interested in the very latest restaurant, cocktail and wine bar adventures!
