Perfect day - Full-Day Excursion - Cape Town and the Cape Peninsula on January 18, 2025 We had a stunning day with our super guide Sam. He showed us fantastic places and landscapes at a completely relaxed pace and told us so much about the country and its people. We had so much fun, laughed a lot and tasty food (not included), at beautiful locations. Everything was exactly as described in the offer and even better!!! It was a perfect day, with Sam, the best guide. Very, very recommended.

Seeing the Cape of Good Hope, Penguins, and a grand tour of the peninsula venues and its history. - We had the all day tour with our tour guide Samuel. He arrived exactly on time at our designated pickup spot, and he began the tour telling us much of the history and culture of South Africa and Cape Town. His information was entertaining and very educational for those of us who do not have a working knowledge of South African history. Samuel stopped for us at many places for photo opportunities, along with his continued information about the area and history. I will also add that Samuel is an excellent driver, and he drove us around the towns and mountain roads with the utmost caution and observance. The day was a great adventure with all the venues on the tour, and a great learning experience with Samuel’s area and historical knowledge. I highly recommend this tour of the Cape of Good Hope and all of its associated venues along the route. If you are lucky enough to get Samuel as your guide, you’ll especially enjoy the experience.

African Penguins and More - Samuel guided us through fascinating sites that we've only dreamed of visiting. We so enjoyed his historical information, amusing stories, and captivating personality. Samuel catered the tour to our interests. It was a great day with a great new friend. We strongly recommend seeing the best sites Capetown has to offer with Samuel.

An Amazing Experience With a Thoroughly Professional and Personable Guide - At the outset I was impressed by the genuine warmth of Samuel when he picked me up my my hotel. On our way to the hotel he outlined where we and the two others who joined would be going and what we would be seeing. What impressed me were the questions he asked to see if we had any agendas or any predispositions. His attention to the details of what were we seeing was impressive. What impressed me as well was the fact that throughout the day he was talking with and nit at to to us. He was patient in his explanations and he would ask questions to us in such a way so that we got to understand that he wanted us to get the full impact of what we were seeing. As someone who as a profession spends time questioning people I was impressed by the fact that there were things that he did not know, and freely admitted the same instead of (as so many guides do) pull some explanation out of the air and hope it satisfies. His explanations were in a conversational manner as distinct from so many other guides who simply worked from memorized scripts. On some of the stops when we were approached by street vendors selling wares I suspect turned out at some mill, Sam would look at us and subtlety shake hi head as a signal. As someone who is a little older I am thankful that Sam took care to help me with an arm when I was a little unsteady, treating me, not as a client, but as an older member of his family. AND Sam is an excellent driver. I felt thoroughly safe in his hands. I will be back to Capetown sooner rather than later later and Sam is my 'go to' person in Capetown. Samuel, thank you for a superb day.

Absolute Best Way to Experience the Cape Peninsula - Our private tour was led by our amazing guide Samuel who started the day by picking us up from our accommodations and was able to get us to Boulder Beach right before the big crowds arrived to see the penguins. That alone was totally worth the booking. We then continued our tour down the cape peninsula where Samuel was accommodating in stopping at points of interests along the route. He was also a wealth of information and passionate to teach us about the beautiful landscape, the history of Cape Town, and the past and current struggles in South Africa post Apartheid. The private tour is the best way to experience the Cape of Good Hope due to cellphone service and Uber/car ride service unreliability. Thank you Samuel to a wonderful day and I would encourage anyone to request Samuel specifically.
