Here we go over the arrival of a Dutch sailor mission in 1652 that turned out to be a turning moment in South African history quite literally. Your tour guide walks you a little around the charming cobblestone alleyways between the vibrantly colored houses and explains how the foundation for racial segregation was laid. After passing some of Cape Town's monuments, a short drive leads us to District 6, where we drive across the now crumbling remnants of what was once a thriving mixed-race town with 60, 000 residents and businesses destroyed to be reserved just for white people. The trip then proceeds to Langa, the oldest Black African Township in Cape Town. We also discuss the repressive laws the Apartheid government established to support racial separation along the way. When one arrived in Langa. You will check into your hotel later following the trip.
