I was only person signed up so we only did robbers island and then walked about the waterfront at my request. Faizallah was very accommodating and got me to the front of lines and quickly boarded. She knew the ins and outs and it was reassuring to have someone give the best directions. After robbers island I wanted to see the waterfront so she managed to tour me around which was delightful. Showed me some of the most lovely spots for views and rooftop drinks and dining. She is very knowledgeable and goes a long way to make sure her clients are cared for! Though it was a bit different what I booked, it was just as wonderful with her company and orientation and understanding what I was interested to see and finding a way to fit it in!

Hi Mary you are one wonderful human being so very kind and a heart of gold. It was lovely to be with you too. We are so sorry you were not able to visit the townships as our partners cannot operate a one person tour. The refund for the township tour will be in your bank within 5 working days. Best wishes. and we are so very thankful and grateful to you for booking with us. Wishing you and you family well always.

Each guide provided excellent general and personal insights that enabled us to better understand South Africa’s recent history; the nature and personal impact of apartheid; and the current environment. Luduomo’s (sp?) willingness to share life in the settlements was appreciated and valuable to us. Faziela went above and beyond in enhancing our experience, keeping us informed, and providing transportation way. She used her local connections to give us access to amazing views of Cape Town.
The District 6 area and museum, the township visit, the tour of Robben Island — such essential places to visit and all made better by two excelkent guides

The visit to Langa and the church service was outstanding . We wandered around for a good hour with our guide . It was really fascinating and the church service was uplifting. Our Langa guide and driver were outstanding too -very knowledgable . Robyn island was also a great trip -tour guide in bus no 1 was outstanding and our prison guide was fascinating -Fazelia who chaperoned me was the best ! Thank u to everyone-a tour to remember .

Took me around the city to some highlights before the island tour. What an incredible guide with an incredible spirit that keeps you moving. She was so willing to spend as much time as I wanted at places and took me to an incredible coffee house too. One of the best guides I’ve had. Thank you Faziela for a great day of memories.

If i could I would give the experience 10 stars. The trips were so well planned, from the hotel pick up to the final goodbye. The township and museum tour was so informative. This was a perfect Cape Town tour, not to be missed.
