South Africa · TOUR REVIEWS
Two weeks or ten days, the problem is the same: a country the size of western Europe and one itinerary. The 15 below are the days that earn their place, priced and timed, with the full catalogue underneath when you want to go deeper.
Tour three Cape Winelands regions in one day, with 15 wines, cheese and sweet pairings, a Stellenbosch walk, and Mandela’s prison.
“Value for money. Excellent locations, food, scenery and wine, of course. No pressure to buy but only to have an opportunity to explore and enjoy. Definitely worth doing!”

Review of Cape Town’s Cape Point and penguin day tour, with Chapman’s Peak, seals, hotel pickup, costs, stops, and practical advice.
“I had a great experience. Sylvie and Bennie were the guides and did a phenomenal job. They arrived on time, provided ample opportunities for photos, and were very personable. I especially appreciate Sylvie offering to take photos without being asked. I only wish I had cash to provide a tip for the stellar service! Definitely recommend!!”
Zip across seven cables at Table Mountain’s foot, with canyon views, fynbos trails, expert guides, and a practical look at price and safety.
“Awesome experience at the Zipline Cape Town. The views are amazing. The Zipline was fun as well. There were some huge ropes. Zuma & Wilson we're great guides!”
Ride the red bus to Table Mountain, take in 360-degree views, and explore Cape Town's routes and walking tours with one flexible combo ticket.
“The combo ticket was perfect. We highly recommend it. We started the day taking the red line bus from the waterfront office directly to the cable car stop. We only waited 20-30 minutes to get on the cable car to Table Mountain. The views from the mountain top were exceptional and were truly worth the trip. After returning to the base of the mountain, we jumped back on the red line bus and completed that loop. Once back at the starting point (waterfront), we switched to the blue line and completed the Cape Town tour. The bus tours gave us an amazing overview of the city and the taped recording…”
Review of Cape Town’s Cape Point and Boulders Beach tour, with penguins, wildlife, coastal views, transport, pricing, and practical tips.
“Had a great tour guide, very knowledgeable and friendly. Tour was organised well and punctual. The staff were very good. Worth not having to uber or drive around to the peninsular yourself.”
Cape Point, Boulders Beach penguins, Chapman’s Peak, Simon’s Town, and coastal views on a packed Cape Town day tour.
“Great trip! The guide, Colombe (Coco) (Chanel 😉), was so knowledgeable; she gave us a bit of history and told great stories. She was patient and flexible. The driver, Yves (Saint Laurent 😉), drove very safely and had a great sense of humour! Some stops could have done with a little more time, especially Boulders Beach. All in all, I enjoyed it very much and recommend it!”
Spend a full day from Cape Town at Aquila Private Nature Reserve with open-vehicle safari, Big Five sightings, buffet lunch, and hotel transfers.
“Beautiful place saw so many animals close up really enjoyable”
See Bo-Kaap, Chapman’s Peak, Cape Point, Simon’s Town, and Boulders penguins on a small-group day tour from Cape Town.
“We only really had one full day in Cape Town and this turned out to be a great choice. Candice & our driver Madee were very knowledgeable on all areas we visited. The boat trip to see the seal we enjoyed, even with the rough seas. The penguins, well worth seeing. We had plenty of time at the Cape. Some chose to hike up and some on the Funicular and all worked in together very well. I would happily recommend this tour.”
Ride a fully automatic quad across Cape Town’s white Atlantis Dunes, with safety gear, an English-speaking guide, and a scenic photo stop.
“We were a group of 8 doing the quad biking, we had so much fun. It was the first time for all of us on the bikes and we were well looked after. Everything was clearly explained with the emphasis on our safety which I appreciated. We had an awesome time and already looking to book again before we go back to Australia!”
See Stellenbosch, Franschhoek, and Paarl on an 8.5-hour Cape Winelands tour with three estates, 15 tastings, snacks, and a Mandela stop.
“This was one of my favorite day activities. Great value for money. The group was really friendly and the guide was knowledgeable. My favorite one was the wine and dessert pairing, brought back a few bottles home to Kenya 🇰🇪. I highly recommend.”
Ride from Cape Town to Franschhoek’s wine estates on a scenic hop-on hop-off tram with mountain views, tastings, food, and return transport.
“The bus was clean and well air conditioned. We arrived 10 mins before departure and it was already busy so we would just recommend arriving early. The staff in Franschhoek on the trams were exceptional and super helpful. Just don’t lose your tram ticket as they can’t replace it - my wife lost one of ours but the staff were very helpful and resolved the situation for us.”
Visit Cape Point, hike to the Cape of Good Hope, meet Boulders Beach penguins, and enjoy a guided Cape Peninsula day trip from Cape Town.
“Whole crew was amazing including the driver, the hostess and the guide Peter. Many interesting, funny stories. The bus was very comfortable. Penguins - oh my god - I loved them!”
Review of Cape Town’s 10-hour small-group tour covering Table Mountain, Bo-Kaap, penguins, Chapman’s Peak, and Cape Point.
“This was a great way to hit the majority of the "must see" sights in Cape Town, perfect for someone only spending a couple of days in the city. The majority of the guests on our trip (myself included) were departing on a cruise the next dayRead more”
