- jacquig1750 contributionsAmazing Experience with MartinMy friend and I had the most incredible tour on March 16th, and we cannot express enough gratitude for our amazing driver, Martin. From start to finish, he was the epitome of professionalism—patient, respectful, informative, and incredibly kind. His knowledge and warm demeanour made our experience truly unforgettable. We are so grateful to your company for having such a fantastic team member, and when we return to South Africa, we won’t hesitate to book with you again—especially if we can have Martin as our guide once more! Thank you for making our trip so special!Written 21 March 2025
- stanleyb7850 contributionsSunset SafariWe had a great time, met some amazing people. Martin who picked us up and Ben who took us on the Safari were professional knowledgeable and friendly. Had a nice lunch and ordered an extra bottle of wine. Saw all the critters we hoped to see and were pleased we took the Sunset Safari. If you only have a day I highly recommend it.Written 9 March 2025
- belindah580 contributionsGreat day out!When I arrived was handed a glass of wine, directed to the restaurant for a delicious lunch, then getting on the truck to see so many different animals. At the end of the trip, another complimentary drink given and much needed as it was a warm day! Would certainly recommend this trip to all.Written 16 January 2025
- CynthiaG6570 contributionsPrivate tour of Cape TownWe had a fabulous 2 day private tour of Cape Town from our guide Emma. She was super communicative and helpful throughout the booking process. She was flexible with our itinerary when we changed our minds In the 2 days we were able to see so many breath taking sites. We visited the penguins, went to Cape Point and Cape of Good Hope,stopped in quaint coastal towns and went to Robben Island. All along the way Emma was there to make sure we accessed the sites and provided so much enlightening narrative. I recommend this company to anyone seeking a personalized experience.Written 11 December 2024
- CynthiaG6570 contributionsAmazing day on safariWe had an amazing day on the Big 5 safari. Our driver, Martin, was very prompt and picked us up exactly when scheduled. Once at the safari, we boarded a 4 x 4 truck with a guide who drove us around the reserve. We were able to see so many animals up close - lions, elephants, rhinos, giraffes. All were amazing. I recommend this tour to all.Written 11 December 2024

We stopped in 3 different areas and the views were gorgeous. Emma was super accommodating and we stopped at such amazing places. I loved her recommendations and would definitely tell my friends and family to use this company in the future, and to request Emma. Thanks again!Written 12 January 2024
- X9710NTmarcinl0 contributionsMarvellous whales and penguin experienceIt was a great experience and I would highly recommend it to anyone who wants to get close to the marine life around Cape Town. As with all wildlife watching, it depends a bit on the season. For the whales, it was literally the last few days before the last one migrated back to the Arctic. Nevertheless, after a 90-minute trip, we spotted two female right whales with their calves. We also saw cape seals, dolphins and sharks, you could not expect more. The penguin colony was amazing. Breathtaking, for me anyway. You could get very close (safe for you and the penguins!), just a metre away from them. The whole colony must be at least a few hundred birds, some of them in the process of feathering, a very unique situation. The birds have become habituated to people, and all safety measures are taken to avoid disturbing the wildlife. At the very end of the day we went for dinner, a pleasant place. We skipped the wine tasting, but that was up to me, as I prefer to stay with the brides as long as possible (I was the only client). A beautiful sunset we experienced was added to all the above. Very well organised trip, on time, flexible when needed. Highly recommended.Written 27 November 2023

Me and my partner absolutely LOVED this tour. Our tour guide Martin was extremely welcoming, lovely and so helpful, even down to providing refreshments in the bus for the hot day.
We got to visit Cape Point, Cape of Good Hope, Bo-Kaap (for the amazing coloured houses) which has a very reasonably priced museum. We saw Boulders Beach with all the penguins and Simons town where we stopped off for some amazing fish and chips. We travelled to Camps Bay, Hout Bay and Kalk Bay (Kalk Bay is really funky, quirky with cool antique retro stores). We took a peak at the Ostrich farm too. All done within a day! If we wanted to check anything out we were more than welcome to do so and Martin was very accommodating in this way.
We cannot thank Martin enough for his incredible service. We absolutely loved it all and we fell more in love with Cape Town. We really highly recommend booking this tour; you won’t regret it!!

Our best day in Cape Town with Emma Jales. Recommended by go that way on Loop Street. Emma drove us to all the beautiful and interesting places on the way from Cape Town, with a pick-up at our accommodation on Signal Hill, to Simonstown, to the penguins, lighthouse, Cape Point, Chapmans Drive. With good tips and explanations. She always gave us the time we needed. Thank you
Unfortunately, the office is difficult to find as it is poorly signposted.
