Davide our tour guide was brilliant..professional, friendly and knowledgeable..Took us to Table Mountain in the afternoon, knowing that after 2 days of being shut by the wind..the queues would be huge..We visited all the other places listed first and came back later and everything worked smoothly..Fantastic day out with some long lasting memories made..Thoroughly recommend.

This is the best thing happened to me so far here, the tour was full of activities and information. And a special thanks to the best tour guide ever “Ruben”. Thanks Ruben for the very informative tour, u have a looooot of information, always smiling and very helpful. Guys this is really worth every penny! Cheers

Absolutely amazing experience, 100% recommended. Lovely wine tasting by the very knowledgeable owner, farmer and wine maker Greg and then a fabulous performance by Drum Struck who took us through the history of African music. A very lovely afternoon.

We learned a lot more about how and why the townships were built - we became aware of that there is hope among the inhabitants but that there is a very long way to go…..

We had a wonderful tour of the township and Robbens Island. Our guides were very professional, personable with a wealth of knowledge. This tour was our best in Capetown.
