Unforgettable Coastal Cape & Penguin Tour - Fantastic tour experiencing the coastal towns and epic views of the cape and the African penguins in the wild. This tour is unmissable for anyone who has a spare morning or afternoon in Cape Town. Our guide was also a great photographer and really informative. Would highly recommend, especially for a solo traveller!

Great tour. Latisha went above and beyond. - Our guide, Latisha, did a great job communicating prior to our hotel pick up. The van was large and comfortable and durning the tour, Latisha gave an on going narration of the sites we were passing and facts about South Africa. It was obvious that Latisha was passionate about her country. At each stop we had ample time and Latisha was always right where she she was to met us. Latisha was very accomidating and went beyond to make us feel welcome. Since we were the only ones on our tour, Latisha dropped us off at the V&A Warf rather than our hotel so we could visit that and she made an excellent recommendation for where to eat.

Half day penguins with Rameez - Rameez was an excellent guide on our half day tour to see the penguins. He answered all our many questions about Cape Town and we had a lovely time visiting the penguins with him, along with some short stops along the way for photos. I was a little surprised when the night prior the owner asked to upsell us on a longer more expensive tour. We said no and it was a nonissue and we were able to have the day we had hoped for.

Informative and very interesting. - The penguins are worth seeing and the guide told a lot of information during the tour, unfortunately for us in English, we had booked the tour in German, but were informed that the guide speaks English and did the tour anyway.
