A five-star day of food, stories and discovery ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Anna and her family explored four different restaurant experiences in just four hours, learning about South Africa’s history and food along the way. With Justin’s wealth of knowledge and great sense of humour, the tour was a hit with the whole family, including the teenagers!

Thank you, Anna, for this lovely review. We’re so glad you had a fantastic experience with Cape Town Culinary Tours.

We’re so proud to introduce you to The Cape Town Coffee Experience! ☕

Launched in September 2020, this tour has been six years in the making. After plenty of research, planning and exploring the city, we’ve created an experience that visits three fantastic coffee spots, each with its own story to share.

Coffee has been part of our journey from the very beginning. Our co-founders, Elsje Bester, Co-Founder and Tour Director, and Jeremy Mitchell, Co-Founder and Managing Director, are both passionate coffee lovers. Now they’re excited to share some of their favourite places with you.

Meet Olivia, one of the wonderful guides at Cape Town Culinary Tours.

Family and its values mean the world to her, and that warmth comes through on every tour. Olivia loves sharing our amazing city, but as a true foodie and storyteller, she especially enjoys bringing local food and culture to life through her own experiences and quirky sense of humour.

A brilliant guide and a joy to have on tour, Olivia makes every experience memorable.
