This experience offers a unique opportunity to immerse yourself in the culture and lifestyle of the Township people in South Africa, particularly the Xhosa people. You'll be guided through an African township, walking along dust roads and meeting locals to learn about their traditions, beliefs, religion, and history. Highlights include meeting a Sangoma (traditional healer) and possibly sampling Xhosa beer and herbal remedies, visiting a crèche (children’s center), and interacting with the kids, who may serenade you with songs. You’ll also visit the Sanlam Center, explore local shops, and try vetkoek, a traditional snack.
