I am writing to formally complain about the Golden Eagle Travel & Tours team based in Cape Town, South Africa. On March 10th, I booked a Table Mountain, Cape Good Hope, and Boulder Beach Small Group Tour via Viator. Unfortunately, this was the worst tour I have ever experienced due to several mishaps and mistakes by our tour guide, Albert.
Firstly, Albert was over an hour late, and there was a lack of communication from the tour company. We had to call several numbers to reach someone. Although the delay was due to the tour bus breaking down and heavy traffic in Cape Town, Albert was neither welcoming nor apologetic upon arrival. Instead, he instructed us to jaywalk across a busy street to board the bus, which was illegally parked.
For the first 15 minutes, Albert did not speak to any of the passengers, leaving the bus in silence. After picking up the last person, he explained the situation, which we understood. However, he then singled out my friend in front of the entire group, repeatedly asking if she was okay in a tone that made us extremely uncomfortable. My friend even begged me to book another tour.
I want to preface this by saying I had a wonderful experience on a similar tour with Viator last year. I often travel to Cape Town due to my husband's job and was excited to show my friends around. Unfortunately, this tour quickly turned into a nightmare. Throughout the tour, there was a lack of information about the historical sites we visited. When Albert did provide information, it was difficult to follow. Additionally, he continuously made stereotypical and geopolitical slurs and jokes about various nationalities, which made everyone uncomfortable throughout the day.
At Boulder Beach, Albert left the group unattended for 10 minutes to look for a tour member who was already with us. He did not inform anyone why he left and handed the van keys to two group members, leaving us confused. At Cape Good Hope, there was a long queue due to our late start. Albert blamed the delay on the 10 minutes he spent searching for the missing person, who was with us the entire time. As a result, our time at Cape Good Hope was cut short from 2 hours to 1.5 hours.
Albert instructed us to meet him by the benches near the funicular ticketing area. When my friend informed him that we were still waiting for our food and might be 5 minutes late, he reassured us not to worry. Despite this, we were only 2 minutes late, but Albert arrived 30 minutes late and blamed us Americans for the delay. He falsely claimed he had told us to meet at the bus and shifted the blame onto the tour group members instead of taking responsibility for his actions.
The final straw was when Albert stopped the bus to look at a township in Hout Bay. I am aware that stopping at townships is considered inappropriate and unsafe. This made me extremely uncomfortable, as these are people's homes and neighborhoods. I shared this incident with my husband's South African friends, who agreed it was highly inappropriate.
I do not enjoy writing negative reviews, especially as I have worked in the service industry for 8 years. However, our experience with Golden Eagle Travel & Tours and Albert was so awful that I felt compelled to report these incidents to Viator and request a refund, as the tour was not worth the several hundred dollars we paid.
Thank you for your attention to this matter.
