Soy hijo de la sexta generación nacido en Bokaap. Nuestra comunidad está formada por descendientes de esclavos y exiliados políticos del lejano oriente. Como guía registrado en Ciudad del Cabo, ofrezco free tours en Citybowl y Bokaap, donde comparto la historia y la cultura de nuestras comunidades con el mundo. Me encantaría mostrarte nuestro vecindario. Tengo una fuerte conexión con la comunidad en general. Soy director de la asociación de turismo de Bokaap y director de Bokaap Helpers Garden, que es una organización sin fines de lucro en la ciudad que se centra en la jardinería comunitaria. También tengo un conocimiento profundo de Robben Island, ya que viví allí durante más de 10 años.
Despite the rainy weather, we were pleasantly surprised that our tour wasn't cancelled. Mohamed was absolutely amazing, he took us on a wonderful, informative, and detailed tour that we would highly recommend to anyone. Not only did we learn more about the rich history of Bo Kaap and the area itself, but we also gained insight into the current challenges faced by the local community. It was truly inspiring to witness the strength of community spirit and how supporting one another can shift perspectives and create positive change. We had the chance to visit a local tourism market and meet some of the most well-known individuals who are working hard to support both tourism and the community's growth. A heartfelt experience and definitely a must-do for anyone visiting South Africa and Bo Kaap!
Fascinating and comprehensive tour
Muhammad was very knowledgeable, his pride for his community and people definitely came through! We really enjoyed the tour and highly recommend it!
Great tour if you want to understand the history of Bo-Kaap from a local leader perspective!
The tour with Mr Muhammad was very personalized and relaxed. We were welcomed with warm hugs into people’s homes and learned about community initiatives taking place. Our guide himself is a piece of history as he and his family are from Bokaap, therefore the storytelling was fascinating. Muhammed’s knowledge was vast and he was able to answer any questions we had. The tour gave us a good understanding and appreciation of a very unique and vibrant place and community and we appreciate all the time given to us. Highly recommend.
