    The ferry experience was...

    Merrill_K, Mar 2026
    The ferry experience was less than desired. It was late leaving and even later arriving back causing us to miss our next tour. The people on the ferry were excellent but we were late for no known reason.

    Very well organised...

    Dermot_R, Jan 2025
    Very well organised excursion - from the ferry ride from Robben Island Gateway (at the V&A Waterfront), bus tour round the island and the tour of the jail including enlIghtening commentary from a former inmate and of course, seeing Nelson Mandela's cell where he was held for 18 years. Highly recommended.

    Everything went as planned. Ferry was great and on time. Tour guides of the island and prison were very informative.
