18 Gangster Museum aims to create awareness of the pitfalls of gangsterism in an interactive and creative manner. The innovatively designed Museum takes visitors through the journey that sadly befalls so many young people living on the Cape Flats. This journey is facilitated by qualified tour guides as well as young ex offenders. Each tourist coming though the museum subsidises the tour of a youth from the Cape Flats. Our visitors get to engage with ex-prisoners and get the deep history of South African gangs.The museum is based in Khayelitsha,Makhaya.We also sell merchandise  and water.Sign with us amagwijo ,dance and prison board games and you get to spend time in the replica of prison cell with ex-prisoners sharing their story.

Inclusions: Water, All taxes, fees and handling charges, Bottled water

Exclusions: Hotel pickup and drop-off

Highly recommended! The tour was great and allowed us to go deep into the streets of the beautiful and culturally rich neighbourhood of Woodstock. Through a tour of its street art, we got to know a lot about the area, its history, people, and culture. If you want to know more about Cape Town, you'd miss out by not taking this tour. Thanks a lot to Zachary for the great experience, his knowledge, and especially his passion in explaining to us so much about Woodstock!
