About
As a Cape Town based tour guide I work hard to tailor-make tours for my discerning clients, whether first time visitors or returning guests. What differentiates me is the ability to create unique tours to suit each client's specific interest and requirements. My speciality is for smaller groups of between 2 and 6 clients, thereby enabling more dedicated service and interaction. I have lived in Southern Africa my whole life and have extensive international travel experience but South Africa, Botswana and Namibia are where I have travelled the most. This has given me a thorough understanding of the history and culture of the Southern African region, specifically the Western Cape. I am a registered tour guide, with a Professional Driving Permit, a basic First Aid Certificate and have completed a wine course (important for when living in one of the world’s best known wine regions).

Mike was our guide for our quick 3-day trip to Cape Town and we cannot recommend him highly enough!! He was completely accommodating of whatever we wanted to do, and arranged everything ahead of time so we did not even have to think about any logistics. He is also super knowledgeable and took us to see things that we did not even think of when planning our trip, and had excellent restaurant and wine recommendations! We would have been COMPLETELY lost without him, but because of him we had a truly wonderful trip to Cape Town. Thank you Mike for a wonderful and memorable few days!! We had the best time!

I hired Mike for my entire 5 day stay. Very personalised service. Each day was depended on the weather and therefore flexible to ensure the best experience. I feel like I did everything Cape Town had to offer. Mike has contacts for anything you want to do and sorts everything out to the last detail. He picked me up and dropped me off to the airport. He picked me up and dropped me off to the hotel everyday. I was in regular contact with him before the trip, where he recommended my hotel, etc. Every evening he recommended a lovely restaurant. This is a top class personal service and Mike is also a fun person to spend 5 days straight with. This is a highly recommended way of visiting Cape Town and not to miss anything in a short period of time!

We went for a family vacation and just came back from SA. Mike is an excellent tour operator. He tried to give his best, even out of the way. We book Mike's private tour for Cape Town. After completing the tour I asked him about a specific shop and he immediately took us there without any complain. We are really glad having him as our guide at CT.
We definitely recommend "THE MIKE BROWN TOUR EXPERIENCE" for our friends and families.

Mike brought us safely through the cape, and we got to see all the sights.
He has a passion for what he's doing, we were really in good hands.

It was an excellent experience. Mike adjusted to our wishes and showed us everything we haven't seen in Capetown. We really enjoyed our time and were impressed at the end of the day! He really wanted us to have seen Capetown with its rich and poor sides. Pascal and I absolutely loved it. Thank you, Mike, for the great experience!

My husband and I went down the coast to see the Penguins in Simon Town. Mike Brown was our private
guide for the day. He was the best guide we've ever had. His love of South Africa was contagious. We enjoyed learning about all the areas we traveled through and visited. On our way back, since we had time, Mike suggested we stop and visit Groot Constantia. It is the oldest wine estate in the country. This was an amazing addition to our trip and the perfect way to end an exquisite day!!

Mike is very punctual and curtious. Showed up exactly when he said he’d pick us up. Really knowledgable and took his time while driving us through the Peninsula and providing us with all the facts, history and local stories. He did not mind (actually offered)) going out of the regular route when we wanted to go see particular places of interest off of the regular route. He really likes what he is doing and that shows in his work. I highky recommend Mike if you’re looking for a private tour in Cape Town.

This guy really knows his stuff. He took us on a road trip for three days around Cape Town. He knew a lot about the history of the country. He took very good care of us. We told him what we wanted to do and he made the reservations. Truly a private guide. He also had good recommendations for places to eat. Would definitely recommend.
