A great day and fantastic tour guide
Booked our tour and immediately we had communication with our guide Anesu. The whole day ran smoothly from the pick up at our hotel, which Anesu was on time. We had a great tour of the city and he was very informative with the history. We finished the day with a trip to a winery tasting and then dropped back at our hotel. Great day had by all, thank you Anesu ️

Take this tour!
Anesu was wonderful. When my flight was delayed, he worked with me to fit me in another day. He picked us up at our hotel and was a joy from the start. We learned a lot, learned of many perspectives, political and otherwise, and learned about history through his eyes. We couldn’t get enough and didn’t want to leave when the tour was over. I can’t recommend Anesu highly enough. You’re missing out if you can’t book time with him!!

Great Day in Capetown
What a great day in Cape Town! We booked a private 6 hour tour and our guide was Aneso. He was fantastic. He was fun, polite, very well informed on his home land. We had a great blend of historical stops, shopping, landscaping of the beautiful area. I would highly recommend creating your own tour and use Aneso!

Best one day tour in cape town
Great tour guide! We had such a beautiful day, Anesu drove us around Cape Town for the day. We were able to discover most of the city in just a few hours. From Table Mountain, to vineyard, and seeing penguins, we were able to get a good sense of the culture and the beautiful people of Cape Town. Anesu was very informed about the history and the places which made it very interesting. Thank you so much for this! I would totally recommend this tour guide.

Penguins, cape of good hope, cape point , chapmans peak tour
I will say i previously booked with another group and guest service at my hotel recommended Anesu, so I was able to cancel my other tour and book with him. He was avail and responded immediately. He was early for pickup and awaited for me and even waited longer as I was to have others accompany myself but I ended up solo. I appreciate that he waited as many would not. He is so well organized and listed everything that is on the schedule for the day and omg he is so knowledgeable about every single thing and Believe me no question is wrong so ask away. This was an amazing tour, I felt like he was my old friend that I haven’t seen since high school and we had a lot of catching up to do. lol, so warm and funny also. I was telling my friends if they ever visit cape town this is the person to get. I will say from the time frame of my trip if I had to do again I would def do the wine tour as well. The story he gave I was thinking in the back of my head” can we go there Instead”, but I know it was later in the day. I recommend asking him what would be an iconic tour but he was an amazing tour guide. He is sooooo knowledgeable. I appreciate that

Perfect One day tour and shopping!
We were fortunate to have Anesu for our guide. He is very knowledgeable about his country; it's history, current events, plus a good sense of humor. Anesu is very intuitive about his customers. He tailored the tour to what he thought we would like to see, and he was absolutely right. From Tabletop Mountain to the wonderful Long March to Freedom Bronze Exhibition and much more, including different shopping opportunities.
Thank you for a wonderful day.

An entertaining way to visit Cape Town
We only had one day in Cape Town. Having Anesu as our guide made possible to visit all the sites we wanted to see besides table mountain which was closed to high winds.
Anesu is fun and knowledgeable. You will enjoy the ride!
