Reviews from guests about our tours and locals
"Our family of four had the best time with Rushdi. He was friendly, very informative and patient with our kids. He made sure that all our points of interest were covered. We really appreciate Rushdi going above and beyond when we discovered a booking mistake on our end and he was still able to work with our schedule and still be our tour guide. We have a much better understanding of Cape Town and its history because of Rushdi. Highly recommend Rushdi to anyone looking for a tour guide in Cape Town!"
"Our tour with Sebastian was definitely one of the highlights of our time in Cape Town! He's incredibly knowledgeable, friendly, and has a great sense of humor. We learned so much about the city's history and its people. I highly recommend booking a tour with Sebastian, and if we ever return, we’ll definitely book with him again!"
"We had a fantastic tour with Trevor in Cape Town. We started at the Town Hall, next stop was the Castle with a great explanation of the history of Cape Town, made our way through the Gardens, and enjoyed a very local and delicious Malay lunch in Bo-Kaap. The tour ended perfectly at a great wine bar with a chilled Chenin Blanc. Trevor has an incredible amount of knowledge, shared with lots of fun facts along the way, and he’s genuinely a very fun and engaging person to be around. Highly recommended!"
"What a brilliant afternoon with Gilbert showing us the ‘off the beaten track’ tour. He’s was entertaining and very educational and we saw and learnt things we just wouldn’t have discovered on our own. I won’t ruin some of the places he took us but it definitely was as hidden parts of the city we wouldn’t have discovered on our own. Book with Gilbert if you can. I think he does other routes too."
"We had a really good day out with Theo, his knowledge of the Cape Town area was amazing and well delivered. "
"Sebastian was extremely knowledgeable about the area and had a wealth of information about the history of South Africa to share. He was always happy to accommodate our wishes and needs. The three hours flew by! We would book a tour with Sebastian again anytime. Thank you very much! ❤️"
"Gilbert is a fountain of knowledge and adapted easily to our needs and interests. He is a lovely man and would strongly recommend him as a guide to one and all."
"We had a great time with Christopher on the half-day city walking tour. He was a pleasure the entire time. The tour was fun and educational and his passion for his home was evident every step we took. Highly recommended!"
"A fantastic tour with Sebastian All the 4 of us are very impressed by the knowledge, politeness and friendliness we experienced during our 5 hour tour around Cape Town Thank you very much Sebastian , we had a great time with you showing us around that impressive city of yours "
