Pato Tours offers authentic Cape Town experiences crafted by locals. Founded in 2018 by Mhinti and Ricky Pato, we combine our Gugulethu roots with professional guiding expertise to showcase the real Cape Town. Our background in youth development through Sakhisizwe (www.sakhisizweydp.com) brings community connection to every experience we create.
As a family-owned business, we're passionate about sharing Cape Town's vibrant cultures through immersive, personal tours. From township explorations to coastal adventures, we reveal the city's true character through genuine local perspectives. Join us to see Cape Town through the eyes of those who call it home.
Sakhisizwe Youth Development Program is an after-school initiative in Imizamo Yethu, Hout Bay, offering mentorship, academic support, and healthy living through sports and life skills workshops. The program emphasizes spirituality and creativity, aiming to empower young people holistically with life skills that help them make conscious decisions and unleash their potential to live life to the fullest.
The program's mission is to ensure that young people stay in school and graduate, while being fully prepared to succeed in their next phase of life. Activities include reading groups, fitness sessions, buddy maths, sports, swimming lessons, life skills classes, recycling initiatives, and creative arts programs.
