A fun, informative and thorough experience with a fun and informative guide.

Published on Nov, 2024

Our tour guide Nathan went above and beyond to show us as much as we could fit into the day. He even took us to see some extra sights that weren’t included in the tour like seals at the harbour, an ostrich farm and part of the city. He was very friendly, knowledgable and very interesting and fun to talk to. He was very invested in us having the best experience possible, offering to take photos of us and adapting the plan to pick us up (seeking us out) so we didn’t have to walk through the rain. We had such a rich experience on our tour, and managed to see so much in one day, exceeding our expectations.

Great, fun and worth it

Great day tour

Very nice tour - we booked a small group tour but it was just us. Djibi was punctual and very courteous and knowledgeable. He took into account the needs of our multigenerational group.

Peninsula tour with extras!

Published on Jun, 2024

A fantastic day out. Booked at group tour but got a private one as we were the only bookers. Djiby was a perfect guide, arrived right on time, very knowledgeable, was completely adaptable to our requests and made a few extra stops. Our final day in Cape Town was one of the best, superb.

The tour was impeccably organized, showcasing the beauty of each location. Our guide, Ruben, was incredibly knowledgeabl

Embarking on the Kirstenbosch Garden, Bo-Kaap, Penguins, and Cape of Good Hope tour was an absolute delight. The itinerary was thoughtfully crafted, seamlessly weaving through the stunning landscapes of Kirstenbosch Garden, the vibrant Bo-Kaap neighborhood, the adorable penguins, and finally, the majestic Cape of Good Hope. Our guide, Ruben, truly elevated the experience. His wealth of knowledge about the history, flora, and fauna of the region added a layer of depth to each destination. Ruben's passion for sharing information and engaging storytelling made the journey not only informative but also incredibly enjoyable. The attention to detail in the tour organization was evident, ensuring a smooth and stress-free exploration of these iconic sites. From the lush botanical wonders of Kirstenbosch to the charming streets of Bo-Kaap, every moment was enriched by Ruben's expertise and enthusiasm. I wholeheartedly give this tour a well-deserved five stars. It's a must for anyone seeking a blend of natural beauty, cultural richness, and the guidance of an exceptional tour leader like Ruben.
