Tour of Capetown, penguins and Cape of Good Hope. - We had a fantastic tour with Gordon. He was a wealth of knowledge and took great photos of our family. The family really enjoyed seeing parts of Capetown, the penguins, the Cape, and the drive back along Chapman’s peak. We would highly recommend Gordon and this trip.

Tailored to your interests - Definitely worth the trip. Riphe Kasilembo, our guide, was excellent. He was extremely knowledgeable, kind and patient. He tailored the time to work for us, both for what we could handle and what we wanted to see. His car was clean, neat and comfortable. We visited the Cape of Good Hope, Chapmans Peak, penguins, and so much else. The day was rainy and overcast so we were limited in what was available.

Great tour value, but could use finishing touches - First, I want to say that this review is a reflection of the business and not the guide. I organized a private tour of Cape Town and several of the sites around Cape Town working with Beyond Africa more than a month ahead of my journey. Setting up the destinations and introducing some weather flexibility was great, the trip planner offered me a few suggestions about what I could visit that would cater to my interests. Making the payment and confirming was all great. However, I arrived to Cape Town and within 24 hours of my planned tour I had received no contact. I had to initiate the WhatsApp communication with the trip planner to ask what the details were for my day, who my driver was, and pickup details. Then the next morning, I followed the instructions to be ready by 8a at my hotel. No one was there. Gave it a few minutes and then attempted to contact the driver/guide - no response, no acknowledgement. Contacted the tour planner - no response. I made a WhatsApp call to the business owner now that it was 15 minutes past when planned and I hadn't heard from my guide. He said he would get back to me within a couple of minutes. I was assigned another guide, who had to be taken off a group that he was introduced with months before (potentially ruining their experience). The new guide finally made it to my hotel an hour later than requested and planned, with no follow up from the business asking if I had been picked up successfully and if things were now on the right track. I acknowledge that this is a perhaps a harsh criticism, but for a carefully planned private tour, where I was allegedly a "VIP" I think this is fair level to ensure safety, enjoyment, and maximizing value of what you got. My newly assigned guide, Isaac, was wonderful and if this was a review strictly for him, I'd give him four or five stars. He was polite, he was knowledgeable, and he did his best to make sure I got to see all the areas that I wanted to and had the time to do it all in. As we went through various towns he gave some historical accounts of what made each town distinctive. He helped me understand some of the cultural issues of the area and he was very understanding of what I wanted from the trip. He ensured that I was comfortable and I had the right direction to enjoy the areas where you can go solo. Though, it would have been nice to ensure that the trip had a planned pit stop for a quick lunch. But again, during or after the excursion there was no follow up to see how it was going and even the tour review prompt reflected the previous guide. I'm giving this an average rating because of some of the issues where I had to follow up and reach out for communication, the issues with coordination of the driver and guide where I lost an hour or more of my tour, but still maintaining a great experience. The tour was great value for what I got and I think Isaac was a wonderful guide. But for the price paid and for the service expected, I think there was room for improvement.
