Bokning och upphämtning fungerade hur bra som helst. Den engelsk talande guiden pratade mycket och förståeligt. Besöken fungerade bra och vi såg pingvinerna och därefter åkte vi till Kapudden. De som ville fick gå med guide till berget och Godahoppsudden. Trevligt!

Sehr gelungener Ausflug! Die Zeitplanung ist gut gewählt, man hat an jedem Haltepunkt ausreichend Zeit, um alles zu sehen. Kleiner Tipp: bei der Pinguin Kolonie am Boulders Beach - der Rundweg aus Holz ist schön, man kann die Pinguine gut sehen und fotografieren, aber am eigentlichen Boulders Beach (ca. 300m weiter) kommt man noch viel näher an die Pinguine heran. Auch die Wanderung am Cape Point zum Cape of good Hope war ein echtes Highlight. Unser Guide Rico konnte sehr viel interessantes Erzählen und alle Fragen beantworten.
