What are people saying about Cape Town

Mansoor_A, Jul 2026

It took about 9.5 hours...

It took about 9.5 hours door to door and we touched all the important sights of Cape Town. Table mountain, cape of good hope, cape point, boulders beach, penguins colony and Chapman’s drive were among the notable points. Weather was beautiful as well with bright sunshine.At all spots, we had ample time to see and explore.

Cape Peninsula Full Day Tour in Private Car

Haocong_R, Jul 2026

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.

Cape Town Winelands – Franschhoek Wine Tram & Stellenbosch Tour

CHRISTINDAWNCAGLE, Jun 2026

Visit the BEST Vineyards & Hit the Tram

If you want to visit the best vineyards and hit the tram in one tour, snag this one with Kevin. He drove and entertained us with stories! I am a wine snob and bought several bottles at Duty Free because the wine is that good, especially Boschendal and Tokara. 10/10 recommend 🥰

Half Day Boulders Penguins and Cape Point Small Group Tour

Mirjana_P, Jun 2026

Great half day tour

It was an amazing experience. Talent was very knowledgeable and he planned the trip well. The group was amazing and everyone was on time at every stop. We saw the penguins and had an amazing time at Cape of Good Hope. I am glad I did a half-day tour as it was just enough to see everything and still have time to enjoy it.

Cape Town: Lion's Head Sunrise/Sunset Hike

Phyllis_N, Jun 2026

Loved it!❤️

What to know: 1) it is doable going at your own pace. Just know that it is all uphill for 40-60 minutes. 2) starting before sunrise gives you amazing views of the city lit up in the darkness. 3) a guide isn’t essential, BUT going with a guide was MUCH appreciated. Idrees had information he shared about the culture, history, fauna, and flora as well as knowing great places for photos. 4) we loved the hike!!! 5) highly recommended!

From CapeTown: Stellenbosch Half Day Wine Tour

Martin_R, Apr 2026

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...

Cape Town: Robben Island Tour Including Ferry Tickets & Transfers

Peter_J, Jan 2026

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.

Cape Town Private Tour: Cape of Good hope & Boulders Penguins

Nick_W, Jan 2026

Perfect Day

With only a 2 day stop on a world cruise we needed to choose our tour wisely.After reading the reviews we knew this was the one for us.And yes it lived up to all expectations. It can be quite difficult finding a tour that caters for a wheelchair user but our tour guide put in 110%.We learnt so much about South Africa of old and present, and stopped at the most amazing places. A huge thanks for a great day

Cheetah Outreach Tour Somerset West, Gordon's Bay and Strand Beaches

Kevin_S, Jan 2026

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!

Cape Town Quad Bike and Free Sandboarding

Ellen_P, Oct 2025

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.
