Your was cancelled one hour before it was to begin. I trust that Viator will be refunding my full payment.
The tour operator was a no show. But Viator was quick to refund and reschedule another similar tour.
Fabulous experience and Chandy was energetic and incredibly knowledgeable and had a wonderful way of expressing himself and explaining the different murals. I was glad I was traveling solo and had him all to myself because he was a gem. I really enjoyed the experience and we ended it with his favorite chocolate and coffee shop and a fabulous moist date muffin. I never would’ve found any of these places on my own. Took almost 70 pictures of the murals so it was worth every minute. He was there on time and I give him five stars.
Great 2h street art tour led by Chandy around Woodstock and Salt River. I highly recommend it and then you can end the walk with some food at the market.
Our tour was a great experience! We not only learned about street art in Woodstock and Salt River, but also about the history and community life in both parts of town. Our guide Chandy was very knowledgeable, very friendly and answered all my questions - and I had a lot. 😉.
Chandy really gave us great inside into Woodstock, Saltwater and it‘s murals. Much appreciated - you should do the tour yourself!
This was a side and area of Cape Town I had not heard of or thought to venture into, and I really appreciated the opportunity to experience it. The mural art is intentional and beautiful, and I learned a lot along the way. The guide is also an artist himself, and it shows in how thoughtfully he speaks about the art and creativity behind it. I would definitely recommend this tour!
