What are people saying about Cape Town

Cape Peninsula Full Day Tour in Private Car

Russell_F, Apr 2026

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.

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.

Township Tour in Cape Town South Africa

Philip_E, Apr 2026

Unforgettable tour

What can I say about this tour? I guess it is what you imagine it would be like and at the same time, it isn’t. It’s fascinating and surprising on a number of levels. We learned so much about the history of the township and what life is like for the people there. Was worried that we might feel awkward, but we experienced nothing but kindness and warmth. Beforehand, we were worried about safety, but once in, that dissipated. You are totally safe with Mzu and Ox, the guides, who were fantastic. My ten year old made friends and wants to go back!

Cape Town: Tandem Paragliding with the Experts

Adrian_K, Mar 2026

Happy and Memorable

We booked the activity just at the night before and they responded quite quickly to confirm it. The whole event was well communicated and we enjoyed the process. The paragliding was beautiful but a bit short due to very low wind that morning. Nevertheless, I did not regret doing this. Thanks Tandem Flight Co.

Amazing Cape Peninsula Tour with Tania

We had an amazing Cape Peninsula tour today with Tania and couldn’t recommend it more! Tania arrived right on time and immediately made us feel welcome. She was incredibly friendly with a wonderful sense of humour, which made the whole day really enjoyable. The journey was very comfortable and relaxed, and Tania shared fascinating facts about the area – it felt like she knew something interesting about every street we passed. What really made the day special was that she took us to some hidden spots we would never have found on our own. One of the highlights was seeing wild ostriches on a beautiful beach, and we were the only people there – such a magical moment. If you’re thinking about doing a Cape Peninsula tour, we would absolutely recommend going with Tania. A fantastic experience from start to finish!

Amazing experience ever🪂lifetime memories and super worth it to try and if I can visit again in Capetown I will do it again. Amazing team, they are all accommodating when you arrive in meeting point and even to inform us to come early because of the weather condition/strong wind that might cancel the fly and almost it happened but luckily they decided to go when it's safe and continue and also my flight instructor Deniz he is so amazing, professional, friendly, funny, cool and makes me feel safe during the fly almost 20 minutes I think. Safely take off and landing👏👏👏

Great Guide, Great Day.

Kevin, our guide, turned up on time in a very comfortable car and from that moment we had a brilliant day! Kevin was very knowledgeable about not just the Cape Town area but the history of it too. He enquired about what pace we wanted to go at, and he was very considerate. A big Recommendation for this tour.

Absolutely brilliant, highly recommend!

Absolutely brilliant experience! Due to weather we rescheduled our trip and the team were wonderful, helpful and very accommodating. On the day: Mesuli & Winnie were our excellent guides! Safety is great, experience is absolutely brilliant and SO MUCH FUN! You definitely need an amount of fitness and mobility as there are a few short & steep walks/scrambles to do to get to the higher platforms. But absolutely worth the effort!

Excellent tour with Felix

Felix is a wealth of knowledge regarding Cape Town. A bonus is, he has a van to take you around. Seeing all the different areas was wonderful. Cape Town and the surrounding areas are absolutely beautiful. Beware of one point.....Chapman's Peak Drive said included in admission and it was not. It was approximately $30 USD per person

A full day of incredible sites of Cape Town

The tour was a full and extremely engaging day with some incredible sites and experiences. The cable car was closed due to high winds but we were able to experience a seal cruise as an alternative which the kids (and everyone) loved. The wildlife spotting (ostrich, caracal, baboons) was an added bonus which as unexpected. Our tour guide Wilson was knowledgeable and provided insights throughout the day regarding the history and geography of the region. He ensured we got the most out of the experience and went out of his way to make us feel comfortable.

Started our holiday in Africa in Capetown, with Mike as our guide. He went above and beyond to show us the beauty of the region, and as a native Capetownian his knowledge (and love) of the land was extraordinary. The wineries we visited were all terrific, with tastes and personalities unique to each. Wonderful start to vacation!
