“I spent five months in Johannesburg for work and had the pleasure of meeting Nthabi during that time. Because of her, I not only felt comfortable navigating the city, but truly fell in love with everything Johannesburg has to offer. She introduced me to its vibrancy and energy—from diverse neighbourhoods and incredible food to its rich history, creative community, and unforgettable experiences.
What truly sets Nthabi apart is her ability to tailor recommendations so thoughtfully. She takes the time to understand your interests and travel goals, and her suggestions are always spot-on. This venture is a natural reflection of her deep knowledge of Johannesburg and her genuine passion for helping others experience the very best that her city has to offer.”

“I moved to Johannesburg in 2019 from Kimberley in the Northern Cape. I was starting a new job. It was a scary but exciting period, one of the challenges was that I had no idea about the social scene in Joburg. I didn’t feel safe exploring on my own as a lady.
That’s when I then found TCT and had the opportunity to be hosted by them. It was the most amazing experience. I experienced both the nightlife and going to the most exquisite restaurants. I went to Saints, Saintly Sundays, Ethos, Kolonaki and Tigers Milk. I would recommend The Curated Table to anyone because the experience that I had with them was unforgettable.”

“Every single time I have visited Joburg, Nthabi has made my trip a rich and exciting experience with so much care, humour, cultural knowledge, and an eye for detail, making everything feel easy and flawless.
I have experienced secret local gems, concerts, parties, art fairs, and markets, truly feeling the heartbeat of vibrant Joburg, less like a tourist and more like a cultural insider. I wish there were something like this even at home in Belgium.”
