Thank you for a most enjoyable and interesting morning touring some of the historic sites of Cape Town. Simric has a wealth of knowledge covering many topics and added in many delightful anecdotes and stories to bring the past of this fascinating city alive for us. He showed great flexibility and tailored the tour to our individual interests, covering not only the more usual historic sites to visit, i.e. the Company's Garden, Parliament, the Bo Kaap, District 6 and the Castle but also some lesser known aspects such as the old water fountains and catchments of Table Mountain spring water most of which is now sadly wasted. Not only the tourists but also the locals in our group gained many new insights into this multi-facetted and beautiful place. Highly recommended.

 “Offbeat .. Customised..Excellent”

Scrambling up a hill to a cave thought to be sacred. Experiencing the atmosphere and the healing words of a Sangoma in her community space. Visiting a permaculture garden in Mitchell Plains and learning about the unique and valuable flora of the region. Simric added these to our trip..making the experience personal and memorable.
The rest of the tour was equally excellent with Simric's knowledge, and insightful perspective on the different sights and aspects of Cape Town and its environs. That he has a background in theatre probably explains his ability to tell a good story. Highly recommended.

Avec Simric nous avons effectué, sur une journée, le parcours Cap Town-Stellenbosch-Franschhoek-Cap Town. Au-delà de l'aspect touristique, nature, paysage, visite des villes, musés des Huguenots à Franschoek...nous avons beaucoup apprécié les grandes connaissances de l'histoire de l'Afrique du Sud de Simric. Elles sont indispensables pour la compréhension de l'Afrique du Sud d'aujourd'hui. De plus la maîtrise de la langue française par Simric a beaucoup facilité les échanges surtout lorsque l'on est pas toujours à l'aise avec la langue anglaise.
