Sono un figlio di sesta generazione nato a Bokaap. La nostra comunità è discendente di schiavi ed esuli politici dall'estremo oriente. Come guida registrata a Città del Capo offro free walking tour nel citybowl e a Bokaap, condividendo la storia e la cultura delle nostre comunità con il mondo. Mi piacerebbe mostrarvi il nostro quartiere. Ho un forte legame con la comunità più ampia. Sono un direttore della Bokaap Tourism Association e un direttore del Bokaap Helpers Garden, un'organizzazione non governativa della città che si concentra sul giardinaggio comunitario. Ho una conoscenza approfondita di Robben Island, poiché ci ho vissuto per oltre 10 anni.
Muhammad was very communicative from the start. He gave us a good parking recommendation as we drone into Bo-Kaap. He greeted us promptly, kindly and we instantly felt his warmth. Muhammad is a very knowledgeable resident of Bo-Kaap, his popularity and spirit is evident as we walked around the neighbourhood. We were welcomed into a mosque which was a special moment. We learned so much about the history of the community and how the area has and is evolving. The tour really felt personal as we were invited into homes of the locals residents and heard their stories. Muhammad is so friendly, respectful, engaging and interesting. His humbleness made the tour great. Very inspiring and insightful. We definitely recommend taking a tour with Muhammad, he also tours on Robben Island. You won’t regret it. *****
One of the best guides around . Don’t miss this tour.
Muhammad ilyas, a proper local, a proper legend. His unrivalled charisma, knowledge and local charm will bring you to the doorstep of Bo Kaap (even inside) and you’ll walk awake richer and lighter - thank you!
Muhammed was an amazing guide! Full of information, humour and good vibes. He is extremely personable with the community, which creates a great experience for those attending the tour, as we can interact with the locals. I would highly recommend!
Alles war perfekt mit Elias. Die Verkostung von dem "Donaut" war sehr überraschend und mega lecker. Leider am Montag die Tour gebucht, da waren alle Geschäfte zu. Ich wäre gerne in einer der Gewürzläden gegangen.
