An unforgettable day on the Cape Peninsula — thank you Candy & Litha!
This tour exceeded every expectation. Our guide Candy was a lovely spirit — warm, friendly, and full of knowledge at every stop, and she made a group of strangers feel like travel companions by the end of the day. Our driver Litha deserves equal praise: calm, patient, and smooth behind the wheel the whole way, including the winding drives — we felt completely safe all day.
The route itself is spectacular: Chapman’s Peak Drive, Cape Point and the lighthouse, the Cape of Good Hope, lunch by the harbour in Simon’s Town, and the penguins at Boulders Beach as a perfect finale. Everything was well-paced with enough time at each stop, and the whole day ran effortlessly.
If you’re visiting Cape Town, this tour is a must — and if you’re lucky enough to get Candy and Litha, you’re in the best possible hands. Highly recommended, especially for solo travelers.

Johannesburg ,first impression.
We are so glad we chose to do this tour originally we’d only planned on one night in Johannesburg however due to circumstances we ended up with extra time so we looked at a tour to taking in the city and the Soweto region.
Themba was our guide and we were in good hands, he is very knowledgeable about the Johannesburg, It’s history, culture, traditions and troubles.There’s no sugarcoating the challenges the city faces . We stopped by local art gallery. We saw the rough side of the city taking us where the hop on hop off buses cannot ,learning of the functional and non-functionally of Johannesburg is an eye-opener, driving through the CBD, I’ll never forget it. We then visited Constitutional Hill the highest part of the city ,UNESCO World Heritage site ,former prison and military fort. Today it’s home to the countries constitutional court, but it’s dark cruel history towards all who were in prisoned here is ever present. Next we went to Soweto, a vibrant historical settlement originally established in the 1930s by the government. We drove down Villa Kazi Street past the Bishop Desmond Tutu‘s house and then to the former home of Nelson Mandela ,a beautifully restored museum. Just up the street we find the site of the infamous 1976 student uprising that highlighted to the world the injustice of apartheid.
We highly recommend this tour and for us as our introduction to this country will be memorable.
Thank you Themba showing us the Good, the bad and the ugly.

Excellent full day tour
This is an excellent all day tour which takes in many of the main sites in Cape Town and the peninsular including Cape Point, the Cale of Good Hope, the penguins at Boulders Beach, Chapman’s Peak Drive and Table Mountain.
Our guide Kevin was outstanding and nothing was too much trouble. He was knowledgeable, patient and very funny and even shifted the itinerary around to suit the weather so that we could ascend Table Mountain in optimum conditions. This is an excellent tour that shouldn’t be missed.

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.

Highly recommend
Peter and Bonni were fantastic. Peter was our guide and Bonni our driver. Bonni kept us on schedule with a smooth ride. Peter was friendly and started the tour getting to know a little about each group. Where everyone was from and who was who. Peter was knowledgeable about many things South Africa and could do well as a stand up comedian, filling the time on the bus between stops with both good information and a lot of laughs. Highly recommend.

Great Tour
Thomas our guide kept us engaged for the full 10 hours of the tour. I was worried that it was going to be too long a day but Thomas made it interesting and enjoyable throughout with information and highlights. He also kept everyone on track time wise so everything went smoothly.

Best wine tour we ever had
Very well organized tour in a small group. Can only say good things about it: Angelo was the best guide we ever had, tastings had high quality wines, good food at lunch in a scenic spot. All of this came with very interesting information about the region, the vines, wines and pairings.

A wonderful day in Pilanesburg
i highly recommend this unique experience! We saw a plethora of animals up close and personal due to our brilliant guide Martin. He is humorous, intelligent, professional and you will learn so much about the bush: even for a South African born woman. Definitely request Martin; as well as the gracious Sibu who is kind and professional. This is a deep tour: loved it!!

Best, Most Important tour in Johannesburg
Fantastic tour. Tshepo was the best guide with a lot of good information and good stops for photos. The stops for tours at Mandela House, Appartheid Museum and Constitution Hill were wonderful. It was an incredibly moving day. I highly recommend for the history and political impact. So sad that what happened 50 years ago in Soweto happened 13 years ago in Kiev, Ukraine (Maidan uprising), and keeps happening around the world. Why do we never learn? Thank god the history is preserved in places like these and that there are tours like today’s.

This is an excellent...
This is an excellent tour, and a big part of what made it special was our guide, Clemente. He was warm and friendly, and it was clear he has a deep knowledge of South African history and of every site we visited. At each stop he had something interesting to share about the place and why it matters historically, so we came away having genuinely learned a lot. We were a group of ten, which we really enjoyed — it gave us the chance to chat with the others and swap travel stories along the way.
One thing worth knowing if you’re booking: because the tour packs many landmarks into a single day, it moves at a brisk pace. Each stop has a set amount of time before you head to the next one, so you do need to keep an eye on the schedule. That’s not a good or bad thing in itself — just something to be aware of. If you’re after a more flexible, leisurely day, this might not be the ideal format. In our case, we had only a short time in Cape Town, so it was perfect: we got to see all the most important highlights in one well-organized day.
If that’s what you’re looking for, this tour delivers 100%. We thought it was great and would happily recommend it.

Best views and experience in Africa
This was a special experience. We spent a week in South Africa and this was our last experience. It made our entire trip. What a memorable ending to a wonderful experience. I would absolutely recommend this to anyone looking for the most gorgeous views in all of South Africa and anyone who enjoys the best wine in the world. 10/10!!

Definitely One of The Highlights of Our Busy Trip
Wild X Atlantis Quads - CPT
Right out of the gate I’ll say that this was one of the best ATV tours our 5 riders have been on! Most of us had previously selected Cabo as being the best. The key difference being the height of some of the dunes, the beauty and the low level of dust in the air. We barely got dirty! Experience details:
⁃ It was very easy to book via Viator if you did so early. We had a few last minute add ons and they had trouble getting a confirmation before we left for the dunes.
⁃ Price was fair. They offered better promotions about 2 weeks before our date.
⁃ Transportation is not provided so you’re on your own. We called an Uber for what was a 45 min ride. Leave early! Be careful with the Uber rides because our driver told us we probably wouldn’t be able to get a ride back because of the isolated location and offered us an outrageous price to wait and return. We took our chances because he wanted 4x what we paid to get out there. We did find an Uber van that happened to be there afterwards and it was for a fair price. Phone signals can be iffy out there.
⁃ The beauty of the white sand dunes is off the charts. No, there is no water nearby so you won’t have that in your pictures.
⁃ Tour guide- was chilled and laid back. Gave us an adequate briefing based on our experience levels. There was no problem with getting your fun on in this high paced ride. We stopped maybe twice however because of ATV issues. Thankfully he was able to get them changed out very quickly. They also let you bring your phones along so you can shoot photos at various stops. He even offered to shoot motion video with one of the phons and it came out studio quality.
⁃ Paperwork will need to be filled out before you start. It is basically waivers of course.
⁃ No food or water is provided but I did see places at the meet point where you could buy things.
⁃ We would definitely recommend WildX and wouldn’t hesitate to do it again.
⁃ Although the dust levels are at a minimum, I would definitely recommend bringing some type of face cover and nice fitting shades. There are face shields but I left mine up most of the ride
