About us

Discover the best tailored experience of Cape Town.

Our story started in 2010 during the Soccer World Cup in South Africa – even though we did not win the Cup, we won with the diversity of our warm welcome to all the visitors to our country. We were inspired by how we as South Africans are one of the key players in the tourism industry in South Africa. The Ubuntu (“I am, because you are”) ideology displayed during the event and beyond is the drive behind Zakumi Tours – unofficially in tourism since 2015 and officially established in 2020.

It was during five those years, that CEO, Fazlie Jaftha, entered the industry and realized the impact of tourism not only to the country but his passion for being an unofficial ambassador for advocating and promoting the beauty and diversity of South Africa. The World Cup mascot, Zakumi, still resonates in South Africa to this day and we chose the name as an ode to the time our country was itself a mascot for welcoming and hosting people from everywhere in the world.

And it is what we do best; Faz Jaftha is our frontline person – be sure to catch his friendly and welcoming reception when you contact Zakumi Tours for Our City, Your Memories.

As part of a farewell flight for a colleague, we had Zakumi Tours plan a four-day programme for 18 people. We received an all-round carefree package! Starting with 2 stretch limos for dinner, bus tours to the most beautiful wine estates in Stellenbosch and Franschoek, hikes around the Cape and up Lions Head, right through to a breathtaking helicopter flight. Every detail was perfectly planned by FAZ and his team. Even on our tour through Cape Town's nightlife, a driver was always with us and ensured our safety until the early hours of the morning. The whole trip at a perfect price-performance ratio!!!

We had the great pleasure of exploring Cape Town with Faz as our tour guide. Faz was extremely knowledgeable and passionate about the city's history and culture. Each tour was perfectly planned and offered a nice mix of historical sights, cultural insights and personal anecdotes. His friendly and welcoming manner made the tours particularly pleasant. Faz was very attentive and catered to all of the group's individual requests, which made our stay unforgettable. We can highly recommend Faz if you want to get an authentic and enriching insight into Cape Town and the surrounding area.Thank you, Faz, for a wonderful time!

I had the pleasure of touring around Cape Town and its region with Faz a few times, being a flight attendant. He's an awesome tour guide. Knows the city and all there is to do around the region like the back of his hand. You can go with your eyes closed, you won't regret it. Can't wait for my company to reopen the line to Cape Town.
