Highly recommend!!!
Patrick was very knowledgeable about the Lion’s Head hike, local plants along the hike, and different areas of Cape Town. He was very intentional about taking time to give us breaks during our hike and during those times he shared his knowledge. Patrick was very kind to find us the best view points at the top of Lion’s Head, to take pictures of us, and to provide us with coffee and tea right before sunrise. We very much enjoyed our hike with Patrick as our guide.

A Must Do Activity!
We had a fantastic morning with Patrick hiking Lions Head. Patrick is friendly and informative, telling us lots about the area while we hiked. He secured us a lovely sunrise viewing spot at the top of the mountain. Thanks Patrick for one of our top experiences in Capetown. We really enjoyed it!

Idrees is an excellent...
Idrees is an excellent guide — kind, thoughtful, and with a strong sense of safety that makes the journey feel secure and enjoyable.The hike is demanding, with sections that require climbing ladders and using chains. It’s adventurous and pushes you out of your comfort zone in the best way. Reaching the top is absolutely worth it — the panoramic view is breathtaking and unforgettable. Definitely a must-do for those who enjoy a mix of challenge, adventure, and stunning scenery.

Best hike either the best guide (Kurt)!
Kurt was an amazing guide! He’s an incredibly experienced hiker, and he was thoughtful and patient with our group that included different experience levels. We appreciated hearing him tell us about the intricacies of the hike, as well as the history and culture of his country. Kurt made this hike an unforgettable experience! Book with him if you can!

Lion’s Head Sunrise Hike
The sunrise hike of Lion's Head was a genuinely unique and amazing experience! Our guide, Idrees, was both friendly and knowledgeable about the mountain, local wildlife and botanicals, and Cape Town history and culture. If you can get your booking with him, you should do so hands down. The hike was definitely a physical challenge, so it should not be undertaken by the faint of heart. But the rewards are well worth the effort!

The Lion’s head hike was sensational
Codi was an amazing guide helping us explore the terrain of lion’s head at sunset. I am physically fit with a slight fear of heights. Codi was very supportive and helped me reach heights I have never hiked before. While I was uneasy as we were reaching the top, Codi accompanied down to lower ground where I was able to comfortably watch the sunset and hike back down easily.
