6 Unique Things to Do in Cape Town

Cape Town’s got layers! From mountain paths and sea breezes to street food stops and local gems, it has it all. Whether you’re into nature, flavour, or a bit of both, this city’s got a little something for every kind of explorer.

Table Mountain and the V&A Waterfront are lekker and all, but there is far more to Cape Town. If you’re keen to ditch the usual spots and experience the Mother City like a true local, you’ve just hit the jackpot. From hidden gems to classic faves with a twist, here are six epic ways to see Cape Town the Kiff Kombi way.

So buckle up! Here’s your guide to Cape Town: off the beaten track and on your terms!

1. Walk Your Way Through The Mother City

Cape Town is a busy city where lots of exploring is done by zooming from one place to the next in a car. But why not do some exploring on foot? With our Cape Town Street Art & Township Tour, you can see the city intimately, taking in some epic sights as you walk through the streets. 

We’ll take you through Langa, one of Cape Town’s oldest townships, where you’ll discover bold street art and rich history. With a local guide leading the way, you’ll experience the city from the ground: personal, powerful, and packed with perspective.

2. Flavours of The Cape 

Cape Town’s food scene is legendary, and we don’t throw that word around lightly, voted the best food city in the world in 2024. From local classics to bold fusion flavours, there’s always something to discover on your plate. 

Join us on the Cape Town Sights & Bites Tour, where we serve up a day of flavour-filled stops: start with Cape Malay bites like spicy samosas and syrupy koeksisters, then move on to a cheeky wine tasting, and round it all off with a traditional South African braai (BBQ). Come hungry. Leave happy.

3. Hit the Trails with a Cape Town Hiking Tour

One of the best things about Cape Town? You’re never far from a mountain. Whether you’re up for a light stroll or a proper summit, our Cape Town Hiking Tour gives you a front-row seat to the city’s most breathtaking natural beauty.

Led by an expert guide, you’ll explore lesser-known trails, learn about local flora and fauna (think the famous fynbos that has taken the gin world by storm), and fuel up with trail snacks along the way. It’s an early start, but trust us, sunrise from the top is worth every step.

4. Go on an Urban Safari

City tour? Yes. But make it Kiff. Our Urban Safari is the best way to see the city if you want to cram the most into a single epic day.

We’re talking vibrant street art, the colourful streets of Bo-Kaap, a craft beer tasting at Devil’s Peak Brewery, a wine farm pit stop, and a scenic cruise along Chapman’s Peak, all topped off with a secret sundowner spot in Africa’s most boujee suburb. It’s a tour, a vibe, and a memory all rolled into one.

5. Take a Cold Plunge Like a Local 

Not all the best experiences are planned. One of Cape Town’s most refreshing trends? Cold-water dipping. Head to Clifton 4th or Dalebrook Tidal Pool, take a breath and go for it. It’s invigorating, icy, and will give you a boost of energy.

It’s the kind of thing locals swear by: a reset for your body and mind, especially after a night out. Bonus points if you follow it with a beach coffee or pastry nearby.

6. Custom Tours Made Just for You

Can’t decide between sipping wine, spotting penguins, and chasing sunsets? Why not do it all? With Kiff Kombi’s private custom tours, you call the shots, and we make it happen (with good tunes and even better vibes).

Whether you’re planning a birthday bash, the best bachelors, the ultimate bachelorette, a corporate event, or just want something a little more, we’ll help you build the perfect day (or weekend) out. From food and drinks to views and vibes, our team works with you to curate a Cape Town experience that hits all the right notes. Your vibe. Your people. Your kind of Kiff.
