“That was the most amazing way to spend time in Cape Town- Faldela (hope I’ve spelt that correctly…) welcomed us into her home and patiently taught us how to make not only a Cape Malay curry but also rotis and samosas, all whilst chatting to us about her family and community. A truly personal and unforgettable experience”

“We really enjoyed our cooking class! The food was very tasty and everyone was able to participate in different parts of the process. The host gave us lots of information about the history of the cuisine and was very friendly.”

“It was amazing - Gadija took us on our historical walking tour of Bo Kaap and explained the history before entertaining us with the cookery session with Bilquis - I finally learnt how to make flaky roti Yeahh”

“Awesome experience!! I learned to surf within an hour!! Thank you Surf Emporium for an Amazing Experience!”

“Well organized, great first time surfing, fantastic instructor. The water and waves were just right. The pick up was on time. Try surfing in Cape Town....it's a don't miss experience.”

“Heel leuke eerste surfervaring! Onze begeleider Ernie heeft ervoor gezorgd dat we tegen het einde konden rechtstaan. Goede tips van hem, leuke sfeer! Een echte aanrader! Bedankt Ernie”

“Always wanted to try surfing but never really had the chance (and i was also a bit scared I might lack the strength/skills). Tammy took away all of that from the very beginning - she reached out beforehand to check availability and make sure I planned enough time to get there. From the first minute, she was pure sunshine: super warm, motivating, and instantly calming any nerves. I loved that the lesson was very much learning by doing - straight into the water, just trying, no pressure. She focused on what I was already doing well, gently reminded me when I was too much in my head, and made the…”

“Our guide, Ayanda, was a good communicator, very knowledgeable, and inspirational. We not only learned about street art but also about city history and society.”

“It was amazing! Lorenzo is super nice and such a great teacher. Highly recommend for anyone who would like to learn surfing, would definitely come back for next trip to Jeffreys Bay :)”

“Lorette provided a 10/10 experience with her cooking class. To cook within her beautiful home such a vibrant meal and eat with her and her husband was very special. I highly recommend. The dish selections were delicious, she provided the recipes so we could try to recreate at home. Very lovely family and I wish them all the best!”

“It was I good idea to get to know the city better. He was a great guide”

“Though our host was lovely and very welcoming we found the actual cooking experience a bit disappointing. The samosa pastry was store bought and there was no insight into how to make the pastry from scratch. I understand it is a complicated and long process but even a partial experience with homemade dough would have been nice. The fillings were pre-done, so one missed out on tasting and smelling and working with the ingredients. The Koesister part of the class was a more interactive and thus more enjoyable and they did taste very good. All in all we had a pleasant experience, just not quite as hands on as we…”

“My friend and I had a great lesson with SurfEnds this morning. We got picked up from our hostel in Wilderness and really enjoyed catching some waves. Dylan was a lovely friendly teacher, he really helped us improving our skills and encourageRead more”

“Sadly, the conditions were not right for surfing so we did a kayaking session instead. Giovanni was very thorough with safety. It was just on the ocean so out and back. Sadly, the dolphins did not show themselves. Shower facilities were good.”

“Ive always wanted to learn how to surf and this experience exceeded my expectations. Thanks to Jesse from Atlantic Surf Collective who helped me with my first attempts at this! He was very supportive and instructed me well. Would definitely do it again!”
