City tour was excellent! The audio was very informative. A lot of historical background was given for several monuments. The free wifi was a bonus. Staff are very helpful and will give guidance with a smile. My experience on Long Street and Bo Kaap was very enjoyable. So was the Table Mountain cable experience. Thank you so much

It was a great experience as it provided us with the opportunity to see all the sights Capetown has to offer. We stayed on the bus for the entire route to assess where we would like to explore. Went for round 2 and got off at Camps Bay and spent an hour or so there on foot before hopping back on. Ideal way to familiarise yourself with a city!

My wife and I enjoyed our HO/HO blue route tour around Cape Town. It gave us the opportunity to see other areas around Cape Town. We only wish we had more time to make use of the bus tours.

The service is excellent. The drive is interesting and we felt comfortable to hop off at the stopping points. We did not wait long for the bus to pick us up again. The information given, is interesting and relevant. We will do the other routes as well as the wine tours when we visit again. We can highly recommend it.
