    Okay but not great

    Sophia_H, Dec 2024
    The guide was really nice however the tour was not what we expected. Robben island took forever as the guide just dropped us there for us to join other tourists in cars and it was a very long wait to go and come back (5hours in total). Bo kaap was not a tour of the district. He dropped us in front of a shop and colored houses but not a walking tour. The diamond factory is a shop with very simple explanations not a factory. The diamond museum in V&A is much nicer the restaurant was good though not what we expected. European food that we usually eat everyday while we wanted to try local food, we gave the feedback to our guide who still decided to take us there as he could eat for free
