CURIOCITY was founded in the year 2013 by Bheki Dube at the age of 21. With an energy that developed from his entrepreneurial spirit as he organised walking tours for those searching for the same diverse and unique energy he had discovered. The next step was to develop a place where his patrons could stay, safely and comfortably in the city and this is how CURIOCITY was born.
Bheki, now aged 31, has developed and grown CURIOCITY into nine successful properties operating in two major South African cities, Cape Town and Johannesburg. His vision is to grow CURIOCITY into the rest of the African continent, and share authentic experiences of this continent one city at a time , while also unlocking entrepreneurial collaborations with emerging black youth wanting to make their mark in the hospitality & tourism industry in Africa.
