The Cape Town Heritage Pub Crawl will circumnavigate the age-old CBD by sipping a hops-fuelled South African beverage at each of the five oldest pubs within walking distance of the Castle of Good Hope.
The crawl will begin at the Perseverance Tavern on Buitenkant Street, then proceed to the Kimberley Hotel on Roeland, then to Dias Tavern off Harrington, and finally to the Fireman’s Arms on Mechau Street.
If you can make it any further, a nightcap at Villa Tavern will be included, all while tour guide Cameron Peters does his sober best to relay the myths and histories of all the stops and establishments along the way.
Guests are welcome to join, leave and rejoin the crawl at any time.
In the spirit of good cheer, the cost of attending the crawl will be R100 per person, of which R50 will be donated to U-Turn Homeless Ministries as part of the tour’s stated mission to make Cape Town more walkable, humane, and beautiful for all.
