Enjoyed a fabulous tour with Anthea today! She was so knowledgeable, very personable and kind. It was only two of us in the group and she really wanted to cater to our needs and interests. Anthea knew all the best spots for photos! I would definitely book with this company again!
Anthea was a wonderful guide. She was very knowledgeable about Capetown.

My time in Cape Town was limited, so I sought a way to make the most of my time... and this proved to be the perfect way! A great introduction/overview of the city of Cape Town. Massive shout out to Leticia, my tour guide, who was incredible! Great communication, very knowledgeable (I learnt a lot!), still ran the tour despite the fact I was the only one who had booked it, did her best to ensure I experienced Table Mountain by keeping track of it opening... A truly great half day that I couldn't recommend more!

It was a pleasure having you along, and I truly appreciate your kind words and recommendation.

We had a fabulous guide Doney who made our tour special. She was very informative and organised. She made sure we got up Table Mountain nice and early too before the crowds. It pays to pre-book your tickets online.

Yomi was absolutely amazing! She was so sweet, warm, and genuinely lovely to be around. She has such a beautiful energy and made the whole experience so much more enjoyable for us. We honestly had the best time with her and couldn’t have asked for a better guide. She’s truly wonderful! 💕

We had a tremendous tour with Doney. She was so enthusiastic about her city, Cape Town, and we learned such a lot. She got us up Table Mountain nice and early before it was too crowded. It pays to buy your ticket on line prior to the tour. It was a great day and lots of laughs along the way too.

We’re especially glad you enjoyed getting up Table Mountain early and making the most of the quieter morning.

Amazing day, Table Mountain was unfortunately invisible due to clouds/fog, but the day was adapted to our taste by our guide Leticia. Worth the cost just to hear Leticia’s insights into Cape-town History and culture, nevermind the locations we visited. Even more amazing considering we booked the tour at short notice due to cancellations of other plans. 10/10 would recommend!

Thank you for the 10/10 recommendation—it was a pleasure having you with us.
I can recommend this tour for everybody.

This tour was amazing especially considering how much time we didn’t have. Yomi was an incredible guide and she showed us so much in such little time. Very knowledgeable and was able to explain everything that was going on, even taught us how to speak in her native language!!! Would absolutely take this tour again and even do the full day one.
Hi Joki Thank you for your fantastic review! We're thrilled to hear that you had such an amazing experience and that Yomi made the most of your limited time by showing you so much of Cape Town.

We'd love to welcome you back for the full-day tour next time so you can experience even more of what Cape Town has to offer. Safe travels, and we hope to see you again soon!
