What are people saying about Cape Town

Fantastic day trip
On our trip to Cape Town we decided to do a day tour of the Cape and Table Mountain. We were picked up from our apartment by our guide Joseph Tambwe who was great. After a couple more pick ups we headed to Bo Kaap where Joseph explained the history of the area and we had some time to take photos. We then headed to Table Mountain but the weather wasn't great so Joseph said we'll try again at the end of the day and we headed to Camps Bay, Chapman's Peak and Noordhoek Farm Village seeing some incredible scenary on the way through. We then went to the Cape of Good Hope, be prepared for a scramble at the sign for a photo, we just wanted a photo of it but it still took 10 minutes due to quite frankly other people being selfish. From there we headed to Cape Point via an Ostrich Farm, we had quite a lot of time at Cape Point which was really good to explore and take in the rugged coastal scenary. From Cape Point we headed to Boulders Beach to see the Penguins this was very cool as there were so many and they were so close. After enjoying the Penguins it was time to head back to Table Mountain, the conditions had cleared slightly but the Table Cloth was still there, still we enjoyed going up and exploring it in the mist. This tour was honestly great you got to see so much of what is a beautiful part of the world and Joseph was just superb throughout so knowledgable and friendly, we highly recommend this.

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!

Wonderful day trip
We had a wonderful experience with Rama as our driver/guide. Very professional and accommodating; totally at our own pace and selected spots we wanted to spend more/less time or skip. The views are spectacular and the penguins are so cute and fun to watch. We also learned about history of the Cape along the way. Thanks so much for a great day.

Just the Right Amount of Time
Great tour that focuses on the five star sites (penguins at Boulder Beach) and Cape of Good Hope without the fluff that many tours offer. Our guide/driver, Gordon, was excellent. He provided us excellent information and pulled over when we saw baboons, ostriches, and in hope of seeing a whale. I'd highly recommend for those who want a 9AM-3PM excursion.

Amazing tour! Highly recommend
Werner was our tour guide for the day and this tour exceeded expectations. We got to stop at a winery on the way and then proceeded to have lunch at Aquila before heading out for our game drive that we booked. We saw over 10 different animal species and 4 of the big 5. I highly recommend this tour to anyone who wants to experience a safari but is limited on time

Great wine tasting..
Collected from the cruise terminal, headed straight to Stellenbosch, for a quick wander around the town, you don't Need long here, souvenirs / photos. On to Marianne vineyard,
Beautiful setting and a great biltong / wine pairing. (Yes we bought wine ) On to the next vineyard Fairview much bigger scale but very well set up. This time a cheese and wine pairing 6 fantastic bargain price wine, did not expect that. Great host at the vineyard (Yes we bought wine). Sean our driver / guide was Great. Slight issue with sound in the minibus. But he made up for this being very flexible with timing. Making sure we would be back to the port in good time. Despite me leaving my phone in the minibus 😔. After a call to Bosch travel. Sean was contacted and he drove all the way back to the port to deliver my phone. Now that's how you can tell a good honest tour operator and driver.. he was a star...

Do it!!!!
Absolutely worth it! It’s a short ride but felt long enough to get the experience. Highly recommend. The pilots are so kind! PS. Don’t schedule this on your last 1-2 days as the wind determines flight so you may need to reschedule for reasons out of their control!

Robben Island
We were on our 2nd day of a cruise. Pick up was offered by the tour operator which we accepted. However the ship is berthed within a 10 minute walk to the start point at the Robben Island Museum. So if you do not have any difficulty with walking I would suggest making your own way there. The trip itself was an excellent experience with an ex prisoner and the ex guard and subsequent good friend of Nelson Mandela were there to tell us about the place.

Dolphins, Seals & Penguins! Great experience…
Amazing experience kayaking with the dolphins (within 5 minutes), seals and even penguins!
Had never kayaked before but felt safe with the team / group and quickly picked it up - the modified boats making it easier to steer and balance… weather will also play a part in this but would trust the teams judgement.
Very relaxed once out at sea and not too strenuous, an absolute must if in Cape Town.

Brilliantly surreal
It has been a real privilege to get so close to such a beautiful animal. The team at Cheetah Outreach carry out excellent work in protecting these wonderful creatures.
I would also like to give a big thanks to my driver Simba. I found him to be professional, funny and a genuinely interesting person, and I thoroughly enjoyed his company on the road.

A Beautiful Tour and a Great Workout!
It was a fabulous tour. The guide was amazing and the location is breathtaking. It was quite a workout to do the two separate hikes - which are both totally worth it - but make sure you wear tennis shoes or hiking boots and clothes that you can move in. Such a fun tour!

Great workout :)
It was a fun experience and the dunes are gorgeous! We got lucky and the rest of the tour didn’t show up so it was just me and my friend. There were also no other tours around which allowed for a great ‘just us’ experience.
We tried sandboarding as well. It was tough! I do wish thought we could sandboard as part of the ATV experience. We left our bikes and had to walk to and from sandboard place which, in sand and 30C, is not fun.

Not seeing something you are looking for?
Cape Town’s coastline, culture, and Table Mountain backdrop make it tempting to stay in the city, but there are a whole host of adventures to be had if you venture out. Whether heading to the Cape of Good Hope or Robben Island, taking a wine tour through Stellenbosch and Franschhoek, or spotting wildlife on safari, it’s all within easy reach. Along with expert guides and entrance fees, many tours include a delicious lunch stop, usually with a view, making Cape Town day trips the ideal way to experience the history, natural wonders, and wildlife reserves of the region.
