District Six Coffee & History walking

Service Description

Modern coffee culture combined with historical storytelling of the dark Apartheid history. For visitors looking for an educational yet poignant experience. District Six was named the sixth municipal District of Cape Town and was established as a mixed community of freed slaves, merchants, artisans, immigrants and labourers. Over 60,000 of its non white inhabitants were forcibly removed during the 1970s Apartheid regime. The area was meant to be redeveloped for whites only, but as a result of international pressure it was left abandoned and empty. See what's left today by walking the eerie streets and old cobblestone roads overgrown with bush and barely visible. District Six is slowly redeveloping and now boasts quirky cafes and shops which we will visit too.
