Our guide, Danson, was wonderful. He was attentive, very knowledgeable and enjoyed sharing personal stories as well as stories about his very complex country. He adjusted the day's itinerary to our requests and was a skilled driver . We would gladly do a private tour with him again.

It was relaxing and a low pace. Jean is a great tour guide, very accommodating
We visited all the places we wanted to accept for the winery that was unexpectedly closed when they got there at 3 PM

This was a great trip, but a long drive from Cape Town. Good stops along the way and our tour guide was great and very accomodating.

I’m a geography nerd so going to the southernmost point in Africa and seeing where the Indian and Atlantic Oceans meet was amazing. Our guide Kevin was friendly, personable and knowledgeable and we loved spending the day with him.

It may seem trivial to see the southernmost point of a continent, but I strongly advise you to take advantage of this trip if you’re staying in Cape Town. It is an amazing way to see the coastline of the country, from its rocky shores and its majestic mountains. In addition to possibly seeing whales and penguins, you may get lucky and see some Dassie and Baboon! The wine tasting is a lovely experience as well, and the cherry on top of the whole experience is a fantastic guide. Peter was the best guide we’ve ever had in our South African travels, so you’re in the best of hands if you get him for a guide.

The 2-1 made this a very personal experience. Our guide Kelvin was very knowledgeable on the history of all the places we saw along the drive.
In Betty’s Bay we stopped at the Stony Point Nature Reserve and got to see African Penguins for the first time.
We are not big wine drinkers and our experience at Benguela Cove Lagoon Wine Estates exceeded our expectations. Our wine ambassador Valentin did a great job of presenting wines to suit our tastes. We walked away with three bottles!!!
Our lunch at the “Burgundy” restaurant in Hermanus was delicious.
The scenery was extraordinary, from the stone covered mountains to the rocky coastline with its tropical coloured bays. It was very cool to find ourselves standing in the most southern point of Africa, where the Indian and Atlantic Oceans meet. This excursion is a “must do” if you find yourself in Cape Town South Africa.

Dear Todd

We had such a lovely experience on our private tour to Cape Agulhas. Our guide was friendly, easy to talk to, and informative. We started with a scenic drive east, stopping for coffee and photos occasionally, in addition to Betty’s Bay to see the Stony Point penguin colony. We also stopped at an adorable winery for a quick tasting before continuing on to Hermanus, where we had a few hours to eat lunch and shop before continuing our journey to the southern tip of Africa. Once there, we took the iconic photos and climbed the lighthouse before heading back to Cape Town. We left at 7 am and returned around 6:30 pm. The drives were quite long but we made lovely conversation throughout the day and it all seemed to fly by (plus the views were stunning the entire time). We would highly recommend this experience to others!

We made a last-minute booking for this tour and Rodney was our tour guide and driver. We were extremely pleased with his service. We had a wonderful time and visited many great places. This tour involves a long drive, but it did not feel that way because Rodney engaged in conversation with us the entire time and kept us entertained. I highly recommend requesting Rodney as your tour guide if you decide to take this tour. You will not be disappointed.

This was a great day! Even though the weather was challenging (rainy and windy), our wonderful guide Kevin changed the order of things on the itinerary to make sure we got to see everything. The Penguins were awesome, Cape Agulhas was beautiful (windy and cold) with the ocean churned up, and the winery he chose for us was beautiful with very good wines! Kevin was knowledgeable, interesting, and a very safe driver. Highly recommend this tour!

As review title states, It was a Wonderful day trip to the southernmost tip of Africa, Cape Agulhas. It is an unusual trip, long one, but it is worth to do it.
Rodney arranged the trip in a way we were not rushed, and had decent time for most of the stops. Rodney was talkative, informative, a pleasure to have him around.
Food at Mazambik restaurant at the Town Hermanus was very good. Penguin experience at Stoney Point in Betty’s Bay; much much better than Boulder Beach.
The stop at Benguela Cove Lagoon Wine Estate, fantastic. ( just needed half a day there alone :) )
Highly recommend this trip.

The trip to Cape Agulhas was amazing! All the credit goes to our driver Joseph who took us to a winery, Cape Agulhas, and even stopped by some places as we required. Joseph shared with us his insights on the history of SA while we were on the road. We didn’t even feel the 3.5 hrs trip to get there since he made the trip enjoyable and unforgettable!
Thanks Joseph, his company, and Viator app for such an amazing experience! I highly recommend it if you really want to visit the official place where the Indian and Atlantic oceans meet. It’s not Cape Point as it’s popularly advertised.
Response from Host, Feb 2024
Dear Ivold
What an amazing day you had with Joseph! We are very thrilled to learn that this tour was one of the most memorable life experiences you had in South Africa. Thank you for leaving us such a fantastic review, we have shared this review with Joseph and he couldn't be delighted. Thank you for having trusted our services. We highly appreciate your support and great recommendation. We hope to see you again soon. Enjoy all your future travels!

We had a great day with our guide Joseph. He drove us along the coast seeing beautiful vistas and arriving to see the penguins. They are amazing. We then went to the small town of Hermanus and saw whales, did some shopping and lunch. From there we drove to Cape Agulhas, the most southern tip of Africa where the Atlantic Ocean and Indian Ocean meet. It is a beautiful and iconic place in the world. Since we had not ever seen the Indian Ocean I waded in the water and that made my day. We then drove 3 hours back to Cape Town enjoying the small towns and beautiful farm land. Amazing day.

Dear Joan
