Our tour pick was on time. The guide was excellent and the tour was superb. Table Mountain is definitely a recommended experience. The views are spectacular!

Robben Island was great. The tour guide on the bus and the in the prison were very knowledgeable and great captivating speakers.
Amiable took us on the city tour afterwards and he was very knowledgeable about the history of cape town and ZAR in general. I would do this tour again for sure.

Meeting the former political prisoner and having a conversation with him. The tour that everyone should experience. Detailing a period of history that should never be forgotten.

I was a little leery of this tour after reading reviews that described disorganiztion, but our experience was very smooth despite the necessary handoffs. Our Viator guide brought us all to the ferry station, and stayed behind as Robben Island has their own well trained bus tour guides and then ex prisoner guides for the high security prison. Our Viator guide was clearly waiting for us upon return, it was an easy rendezvous. We had lunch at the top of Table Mountain, I would recommend waiting to buy tram tickets until on site, as the trams shut down in heavy winds. Our driver took us to the kiosk which is apparently the best kept secret in the world as there were lines at the ticket booths, but absolutely no one at the kiosk!

We had a very good experience on Robin Island but the only challenge was that our boat going over was delayed for 50 minutes and so that was very frustrating. The former prisoner who was our guide was extremely informative and interesting. The water was pretty rough coming back.
Response from Host, Oct 2022
Good day dear client
Glad that you had a good experience.We were informed that an usual technical issue made the trip delay otherwise please call again for more and more discoveries.

What a waste of money, actually I want my money back because we paid but no service was provided. The tour came to our hotel walking and we walked to the V&A waterfront to go to Robben Island to our surprise we had to buy tickets to go to the island. So you guys are charging us R1045, 00 for walking from the hotel to waterfront. I’m so mad its not funny this is a rip off. Please refund every cent.
