We had a great half day tour with our guide Gift. He narrated throughout our scenic drive. There was enough time at each stop to enjoy and take plenty of pictures. We loved seeing the penguins and even saw a few ostriches up close while at Cape of Good Hope. The van was clean and air conditioned and the headset that the guide used was connected to the van's sound system so that all passengers could hear.

The most memorable part of my experience was seeing the penguins, but also learning about the culture and community in South Africa. The tour guide was thoughtful and knowledgeable.

The half day tour was a perfect amount of time to see everything. Clement was an amazing guide. He was very knowledgeable, knew the best tips to beat the crowds and added a lot of depth to the tour.

Ejide was a wonderful guide. He was very accommodating to all of our requests. He was also very knowledgeable and taught us a lot about South Africa. We loved our time with the penguins.

We had a great day with our guide Mark. It was a great tour, very informative, and Mark gave us lots of insights along the way. Would definitely recommend the half day tour!

A little confusion around the extra costs for the entrance fees and the difficulties in using the SanPark website, but once these were resolved, we were ready for an adventure and that's what Isaac gave us, in conjunction with a plethora of knowledge on Cape Town and how it has become all it is - the good, the bad and the not so nice 😀 Thank you for giving my 24 year old son - kids these days are so hard to satisfy and please with natural attractions - the best day in Cape Town (His words) of the 3 we spent here and for helping him make memories to savour for years to come. His race up Cape of Good Hope and his race down Cape Point with Andreas (another tourist) in his clogs and jeans gave us much laughter and good conversations on the minibus. The views Isaac took us through on the way back - Chapmans Park, Hout Bay, Cape Bay and so much more - were absolutely stunning. A worthwhile tour and we only did half a day!

Isaac was really kind and attentive. I booked the half day trip because I wanted to see load but still have time to spare! Our whole trip ran really smooothly, we saw the penguins, then spent plenty of time at Cape Point. On the was we saw ostriches, seals, baboons and bonteboks! It really was the most special day, Isaac’s descriptions and insight was really useful and just the right amount of information! Honestly couldn’t recommend it more, We finished the tour around 14:30, and I was still able to get a lot done : red bus route, aquarium visit plus shopping!

My Wife and I went on the 5 hour Cape of Good Hope trip with our driver Gift. The tour was excellent and covered many scenic spots and lots photo opportunities. Gift was very knowledgeable and courteous and I would recommend this trip, we had a wonderful time.

Great experience where Wilson (the tour guide) made sure to show us all around the cape peninsula, thoroughly explaining all history behind it. Definitely recommend

We had an amazing tour with Ray who was so lovely and shared lots of facts during the tour. It was a brilliant way to see Boulder Beach and Cape Point but also all the local areas too. Pick up from our hotel and dropped back too. Took around 6 hours in total but well worth it!
