South African happiness tour.
The experience with Gideon far succeed expectations. He explained everything g about the places we visited, enjoyed a mischievous laugh with others and demonstrated the good nature of South African culture.
He attended to our needs and sought out the cricket ground, even managing to sweet talk the guard into letting go us in for photos. He led us to where the cue was to access tickets and was always where he said he would be when we returned from a activity. A charming gand enthusiastic tour guide. Would highly recommend this company to anyone and everyone.

Wonderful Tour of Cape Town
We enjoyed an incredible day with T, our guide and driver, on a very comprehensive tour of some of Cape Town's beautiful sites. We started with a quick walk around in Bo-Kaap before we headed up to Table Mountain. T timed the trip perfectly to avoid crowds and let the morning weather clear a little before we ascended in the cable car. The day we visited was also the Two Beaches Ultra Marathon so we had to adjust our itinerary and travel to avoid road closures in the city and T expertly navigated the city to avoid most of the closures and delays. The Boulder Penguins were a delight and we enjoyed a fabulous seaside lunch at the Black Marlin restaurant (meal at our expense). Tour was relaxed pace with multiple photo opportunities along the way.

Stunning views from the...
Stunning views from the top make this hike worth every step! Our guide Kurt was incredible making sure the whole group felt comfortable at every stage of the hike. He was also very informative and knowledgeable. I would highly recommend this hike to anyone. My husband has a fear of heights but was still able to complete the steep parts at the top with the incredible guidance from Kurt.

More of a full day tour
The guide was very knowledgable and offered us a brief stop for lunch. Cape of Good Hope and seeing the penguins a truly exceptional experience.
We booked a half day tour. We were picked up at 8.50 at our hotel and did not return until nearly 5pm. Beware if you are in a rush and hoping to return to Cape Town for the afternoon.

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!

Great time!
Angel was amazing! She took us on a full day private group tour around the Penninsula. She was so accomaditing with stopping for pictures, wanting to stay or leave earlier, and took us to fun stops. She had great recommendations for lunch and dinner later on in our trip. We had an excellent day with her and I highly suggest doing this tour.

Thank you so much!

Elijah was my tour guide...
Elijah was my tour guide on this trip. There was some mistake in the system but he communicated on time and made alternative arrangements. He was extremely informative, funny, very accommodating throughout the trip. He did not rush at any of the sites and was very thoughtful in the way he drove us to the various sites. We got to all the attractions before the crowds arrived. Definitely 5 stars for this trip! Thank you Elley!

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.

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!

A Great Wine tasting expedition
This was an amazing tour of 4 established vineyards with wine tasting at all 5 with and without cheese and chocolate. As a bonus, a delicious lunch was part of the package. Our guide was very knowledgeable about wines and production and supplemented the knowledge we were given in-house by the experts. He picked us up from our hotel in a clean and comfortable bus. There were 6 other interesting people on the tour. We all had a great time.

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.
