Reviews from guests about our tours and locals
"Elizabeth looked after our family of four beautifully. She helped us navigate our early time in SA and got us settled into the rhythm. Her itinerary was spot-on, and we managed to pack in so many things. She had great anecdotes about Cape Town (and wider South Africa) life and made us all feel very at-ease. She also had invaluable tips which she shared before we arrived- a really great touch! We've exchanged a few messages since leaving her company and strongly believe we'll stay in touch. Cracking guide - you won't be disappointed!"
"Theo gave us a fantastic day - his local knowledge was great and was extremely warm and welcoming and happy to adjust the day to suit us. Thanks Theo"
"Seb is a great guide and really kind. Many many thanks for this amazing journey 😎"
"We had a wonderful day exploring the southern cape with Sebastian. Very easy to communicate plans and wishes prior to departure. It was great to hear about so much of the history of the politics, people and language, his unique perspective of growing up and living in Cape Town and now raising a family here and his optimistic view of the future for the country. He gave us a list of recommendations of restaurants for the city and thoughtfully followed up with us the next day regarding our ferry to Robbin Island when he found out it was cancelled and let us know. "
"Me and my wife had the luck to have Elisabeth as our guide. She really gave us a full day of guidance, service and laughter! 😀 Her deep knowledge of the culture and the structure in South Africa gave us a far better understanding for the country. The day was stuffed, she picked us up (early) at our hotel, where she also dropped us off. She also helped us with ideas of golf courses when we had difficulties to find tee times. We also appreciated her humility in the face of us not having English as our native language. All in all she gave us more then we. expected and we will for sure use her services next time we visit the region. // Erik & Angelica"
"We had a wonderful day trip with Theo to Kaap de Goede Hoop. Theo is a very pleasant person, he has a lot of knowledge and is very willing to share that. Not only did we get to see the best of South Cape, but also did we learn interesting stuff about South Africa and its people. Last but not least, Theo is a very safe driver. We would definitely book a tour with Theo again!"
"We had an amazing day with Sebastian who showed us a so many beautiful places in and around Cape Town. He is knowledgeable and informative and gave us a real insight into the area. His friendly approach made us feel so welcome. It was a memorable day for us and we’d definitely recommend him as a fantastic tour guide. "
"Theo is extremely knowledgeable and enthusiastic about his home town and its surroundings. He took us to off the beaten path places, showed things we would never notice ourselves. He loves the nature and flora in particular. Theo has an amazing life story, he’s seen most of the world!"
"We are a family of four (parents, two daughters 17 and 10) who took a Cape Peninsula day trip with Sebastian. We had a wonderful time and would recommend this to anyone who is considering it. Sebastian told us about the city and suburbs as well as the history and geography of the area as we headed further south. He was happy to answer any of our questions about what we were seeing, about South Africa, or about the Cape in particular. We made multiple stops and Sebastian made sure to get some family photos of us at different locations. We never felt rushed, we had enough time at each spot to explore, and it was lovely to learn more about Cape peninsula from and expert *and* not have to worry about driving ourselves. We would do this trip again with Sebastian in a heartbeat. "

The Cape of Good Hope was first rounded in 1488 by Portuguese explorer Bartolomeu Dias. He originally named it the Cape of Storms, but King John II later renamed it to reflect the optimism it created for a new sea route to India.
The Cape of Good Hope is part of the Cape Floral Region, a UNESCO World Heritage Site and one of the world's richest areas for plant biodiversity. See unique fynbos and vibrant wildflowers.
Enjoy a braai with locals! This South African barbecue features boerewors (sausage), sosaties (kebabs), and often potjiekos (stew). Pair it with local wines for a true taste of the Cape.
Though not directly related to the Cape, Nelson Mandela's fight for freedom deeply impacted South Africa, including the Cape region. Visit Robben Island to learn about his imprisonment and legacy.
