eKasie Backpackers

eKasie Backpackers was launched on the eve of Freedom Day, April 26 2005. It was the first of its kind backpackers lodge in Khayelitsha, Cape Town - opening up a new tourism niche market in the township - and community-based tourism. eKasie Backpackers is proudly owned by Noma and Luba, vibrant and passionate. Come and sleep in our Afro-chic bedrooms and let the sounds of the *lokshin rock you to sleep. Our guests experience the township vibe - get off the bus, meet and know the locals, learn our diverse cultures, how to cook our food (and eat it), about spaza shops, shebeens, our interesting history and can also take part in community building. We are involved in community building and empowerment and encourage our guests to get involved – youth arts and drama, gumboots dancing, drumming, storytelling and street soccer are a few examples. Welcome to eKasie Backpackers, the only backpackers in the township in Cape Town, and enjoy the township vibe.
