    What our guests say

    May 2026
    Went with my partner and honestly, it was such a BLAST. Our guide (pretty sure his name was Lucian?) had a wild amount of facts, like he knew every weird plant and who painted what mural in the area. We stopped for penguins at Boulders Beach and I got like 100 pics, not even joking. Oh, and the baboons – they’re way more cheeky than I expected! Weather was a bit chilly in the morning, but cleared up for EPIC views by noon. Didn’t feel rushed at all. Bring a jacket, you’ll thank me.

    Best day of our trip!! I went solo and instantly felt part of the group thanks to our guide (Lucian, I think?). He even helped me get a selfie with the penguins (not easy, they move FAST). The commentary was funny and not too much history overload. It’s a long day but never boring. If you get carsick, sit in the front. Def worth every cent.

    My gf and I LOVED this tour! Our guide (Mark) was super friendly and told us some wild stories about the Cape. We saw baboons AND an ostrich family (so random). Photographers: bring a zoom lens. The drive down had crazy scenery. If you’re into nature, you’ll be in heaven.

    Solo traveler here – had a great time with a small group. The guide (Papa Lucien) had stories for days and made us laugh a ton. Weather was a bit foggy at first but cleared up for the epic view at Cape Point. Highly recommend for anyone who wants to see a lot in one day.

    We had a fantastic time! Our guide was super friendly and cracked jokes all day. Saw penguins, lots of seals, and the Cape Point walk was more challenging than I thought (bring sneakers). The wind was next level. Loved every minute.
