Traveler reviews
Great experience
Guide was great and knowledgeable.
A day that filled my soul
My friends and I had an incredible day experiencing the natural beauty of Boulders Beach, Cape Point, Chapman's Peak, etc. Our driver Felix was kind, flexible, informative, and professional - we were thrilled with him. We loved seeing penguins, baboons, gorgeous mountains, glistening oceans, and lovely protea. It was a magical day - highly recommended!
Phenomenal Experience in Every Way!
This tour exceeded our expectations in every way! Our driver & guide, FELIX, was AMAZING!!! He was prompt, personable, very knowledgeable, and really made the day for us. He insured that we had a great experience at every stop and his driving put us at ease. We enjoyed time at Boulder Beach with the penguins, had a chance to hike up to the Old Cape Point lighthouse without feeling rushed, got to spend some time at Cape of Good Hope, stopped for a few minutes to watch some baboons cross the road in front of us, and savored the truly stunning views along Chapman’s Peak Drive. Highly, highly recommend! Can’t think of a better way to spend half a day on the Cape!!!
So much more than just Boulders Beach!
I’m really happy I booked the half-day Boulders Beach tour. It was much more than just visiting Boulders Beach and seeing the penguins - I got to experience several other beautiful parts of Cape Town along the way. Mulanda was a wonderful guide, friendly and made the whole experience enjoyable. It was such a lovely way to see more of Cape Town in a short time, and I’m very glad I booked it!
Worth it!
The tour was worth it, I was constrained on time and hence the half day worked out really well. My tour guide Nathan was really nice and gave good description of places. Unfortunately I didn’t had cash so couldn’t tip him. For me the highlight was Penguins at the boulder’s beach and the cape of good hope/cape point and got decent amount of time to spend there.
