Weather beat us again

Had a great morning in Cape Town with our guide even though we didn't get to Robben Island, next time weather permitting.

Operator response

Hello Diane, was lovely to be in your company. Your safety is of utmost importance of course and we don't have control over the weather :( We swopped the Robben Island part for the pm township, and we gave part refund. Hope you learnt a lot on the township and district six museum.Best wishes is wished for you both.

Amazing Tour!

I had such an amazing time with Faz. She is extremely friendly, knowledgeable, and one great photographer! She arrived on time and gave me an overview of the neighborhoods and history of Cape Town! She even recommended some of her favorite places to eat. She was so genuine and you could tell she loved the work that she does, which is reflective in the experience you will have on this tour! I definitely recommend!!
