Tripadvisors tilnærming til anmeldelser
Hver Tripadvisor-anmeldelse går gjennom et automatisert sporingssystem før den legges ut. Dette systemet samler inn informasjon som svarer på følgende spørsmål: Hvordan, hva, hvor og når. Hvis systemet oppdager noe som muligens strider imot retningslinjene våre for fellesskapet, blir anmeldelsen ikke publisert.
Når systemet oppdager et problem, kan en anmeldelse automatisk avvises, sendes til anmelderen for bekreftelse eller gjennomgås manuelt av teamet vårt av innholdsspesialister. Disse spesialistene jobber døgnet rundt for å opprettholde kvaliteten av anmeldelsene på nettstedet vårt.
Teamet vårt sjekker hver anmeldelse som er lagt ut på nettstedet og bestrides av fellesskapet vårt for ikke å møte retningslinjene våre for fellesskapet.

It isn't easy getting a spot on this tour, but with a little luck and persistence you can do it. Contact Najwaa (she's the tour guide) at grooteschuur@telkomsa.net. This is a very interesting 2-hour tour that takes place in a beautiful old residence that once belonged to Cecil John Rhodes.

A must do!! Have been trying for many years to do this tour and was not disappointed- a well informed enthusiastic tour guide and a ‘hands on’ tour through this beautiful historic house.

Guided Tour of Groote Schuur Manor House. The former Cape Town residence of the state president, the gabled Groote Schuur ('Big Barn') was originally built in 1667 to serve as the VOC's granary before it was bought by Cecil John Rhodes in 1893 and converted into a grand mansion and office
The 2 hour tour led by Goote Schuur guide Nadjwaa is so interesting as she explains the History, of the house and the stories of Cecil Rhodes life.
Among the most interesting items are souvenirs from his travels, his vast book collections, porcelain, silver and glassware.
The bathroom contains a huge bathtub carved from a single piece of Paarl mountain granite.
If you would like to see something special while in Cape Town, this is a must do on your list.

Originally from 1657, Cecil Rhodes rebuild the house after a fire in 1896. For many years it was the official Cape residence of the prime ministers of South Africa (Genadendal, the current prime minister’s residence, is visible behind the hedge).
This is a stunningly beautiful house, and so eminently preserved: A Rhodes museum, or a display of the very best craftsmanship of the time, or a ‘still leben’ revealing stories about an elite, very very far from the crowd of common people, at a particular time in South African history.
The guide Najwaa has vivid stories about every detail in the house, no picture taking allowed. As this is a museum with no strings or protection - do not bring children (they will be bored to death anyway).
The museum lets in a handful of people once a week at either 10.00 or 11.00 for a two hour tour: The week day and time varies (closed on weekends and public holidays) and there is no website with information.
If you would like to request a visit, please email: grooteschuur@telkomsa.net or call Najwaa (021-6869100 / 083 414 7961)
When you visit, remember to bring passports of everybody entering the estate, and ensure to arrive at least 10 minutes in advance as the police security check can take time. Najwaa will send you the directions to the back entrance you need enter by (on Klipper road). The price is R50 - no credit cards only cash. Don't bring kids / pets.

we pass the place often if we drive on the M3, but never see the house. historicaly it is very important and we wanted to visit it one day.
we got a email adress to contact for an appointment.
all went smooth and well after that. the R50 fee is fair, and what you will see is impressive. it is well kept and tells a big part of SA history.
if you would like to see some thing special while in Cape Town and want to learn something about the house and the history, this is a must do on your list.

We heard about this visit from a friend...it is not advertised and difficult to get a contact. Once you have spoken and booked with Nadjwaa,it is all plain sailing. A wonderful 2hours of tour,information and pleasure. We have come back to UK and managed to obtain the book on Amazon as a souvenir of a lovely visit...thanks to the beautiful Nadjwaa.

A Groote Schuur é uma "USP" africana, porém é uma faculdade particular. Caríssima, mas excelente educação.

We have been fortunate to visit the Residence many times. Each visit is slightly different, but always excellent. The history is so interesting, the interior beautiful and the objets d'art fascinating. Najwaa is indeed a great guide.

Het valt niet erg mee er te komen. Je moet reserveren en rondleidingen zijn maar 1 of 2 maal per week. Je moet je paspoort meenemen. Dat alles vanwege de beveiliging, want ook de huidige president Zyma komt er nog geregeld. Maar ooit was dit de officiële woonplek, en residentie van de eerste ministers, zoals Cecil Rhodes en van de laatste blanke machthebber, die de macht aan Nelson Mandela overdroeg.
Een mooi huis, oorspronkelijk uit ca 1680, maar in de loop der jaren sterk uitgebreid en veranderd. Vooral Rhodes heeft het vol gestopt met fraai antiek, vooral Europees/ Nederlands, Kaaps en met VOC schatten. De rondleiding duurde 2 uur, met een allerliefste en zeer kundige gids. We waren maar met z'n vieren. Kosten R 50 PP. In Zuid Afrika schijnt met niet veel interesse te hebben voor z'n geschiedenis...
De informatie in Lonely Planet klopte niet helemaal. Dus bel eerst even!
Zeer aanbevolen.
