Baie Lekker Touring

26/11/2024

Over the last few days I had the opportunity to welcome a few clients from all around the world to my city.

Almost everyone was impressed by what Cape Town can offer and the beauty of our diversity. Of course, not every guide is the same, but I salute those who does their job with passion and unbiased information.

Most times, our visitors wants to have a little fun while exploring. It shouldn't be all formal, it should include some good stories and narrative of history and sights.

Everyone I meet loves this city, we are blessed with scenery and diversity!

Some pics on my recent visits on the Cape Peninsula tour.

Clients from Norway, Spain, England and the USA took advantage of our recent fantastic weather who feared that they might not see this beautiful place, according to their 2 week weather outlook.

The question was, is it always this kind of weather in Cape Town?
Nope, 4 seasons yes.

Sometimes you are being closely watched by those who like what you do.
This is something that will bring good reviews to your business.

Baie Lekker Touring works with many operators and always have good feedback. This is good for business.
However, never ever ever take clients from the ones who are providing relief when times are tough. Always respect the fact that these people have entrusted you with their clients, they have a bigger database than others.
It took them time and sometimes luck to where they are.
Respect the fact that when you are being entrusted, don't misplace that trust.

Of course, we have to be at our best at every tour. Our visitors sometimes only have 1 or 2 days here, and we as tourist guides must cover as much as possible.

Be the host.
Be the ambassador.
Be the one who takes pride in what we're doing.
Be lekker, be Baie Lekker 🙏🏽🇿🇦

Many versions of the Bo-Kaap, many views and many stories.

A beautiful community and with most working class coloured communities, crime is also an issue.

Explore the area once known as the Cape Malay quarter, during the Apartheid era.

Oh my, what a mission I was involved with. It was a day before the event and I was called upon.

Domingo, all the way from Venezuela, decided to do a surprise proposal for his long loved friend from South Africa. I wasn't sure when it will happen, but all I had to do was to be ready. Being in the oldest gardens in South Africa, it was sure a beautiful setting.

He set up the camera and I immediately had to deviate from what's happening by suggesting that we will do a TikTok.
Connecting the Bluetooth, the song was playing and he did well.

Wishing them a beautiful future together and a life of love.

All the best to the future my friends!

Some asks, what does tour guides do for fun?
Why haven't I met a tour guide yet?

We do a lot of things, we have a lot of friends, but we do mostly things we never did before.
Although, I always connect history and that's always a problem 🤣😂

Thank you Barry Moses for inviting us to a fantastic evening, it was my first time there...but it was really worth it!
Barry is also a DJ host on P-Foreonline and one of the most loved old tôpies there🤭

Life gets busy, but find at least 100 ways to catch up.😉

Small but fun crowd, diverse and inclusive.

Every last Thursday is Karaoke evening at Hanover street.

Yes, I sang a song...but was so nervous, don't know why😀

My wife said it was good, that's all that matters!

So, I'll sing again 😉

Visit the colorful BoKaap!

During the Dutch East India Company rule, slaves along with indentured labourers were housed at the Slave lodge under inhumane conditions.
A certain Jan De Waal purchased the land and cottages were built to house these skilled labourers.
It was only in the 90s that these homes came to life with these spectacular colours!
