Absolutely amazing full day tour with Omar! After having to cancel on the Saturday as I was really ill during the night, we were able to reschedule for the Sunday with no hassle whatsoever. Our guide Omar was so friendly and informative, a real pleasure to spend the day with. He also took us to the Table Mountain cable cars at the end of the day and waited for us, as I had been too unwell to go before. We really appreciated this and were so grateful. Thank you once again and we would highly recommend this tour to everyone.

Felix was/is an exceptional guide! He showed up in a very clean Mercedes ans was attentive. He opened doors, held my shopping basket and gave a thorough explanation of the area. I highly recommend him for private tours.

Prince picked us up near the cruise terminal and we were off! Our first stop was Boulders Bay to see the African Penguins. Hundred of
Penguins, sunning themselves, diving into the surf or just standing, gazing at the sea. Some were losing their downy feathers which were
floating in the breeze and collecting in balls of fluff. (A sign stating “Penguins will bite” warned visitors). Large granite boulders along the
shore were impressive. Leaving the area we saw a family of baboons in a residential area with a volunteer holding a sign warning to be careful, baboons don’t like close encounters. The Cape has numerous beautiful bays and beaches, spectacular views abound, Simons Town was charming.
Prince drove us along “Chappies Drive” to the Cape Of Good Hope Nature Reserve, where we saw seals sunning themselves on nearby rocks, Ostriches feeding along the roadside and more baboons. We also saw a small herd of eland in a valley below the road.
By then, it was lunchtime and Prince took us to Imhof’s Farm, where we had a tasty lunch with a lovely view. A rooster and hens entertained us.
On our return, Prince showed us Bo-Kaap, so colorful with unique architecture. It seemed every vista was beautiful, every bay and beach so lovely.
Prince also gave us some history regarding Bishop Tutu and Nelson Mandela’s struggle against apartheid. We only had 12 hours in Cape Town
and would have liked more, unfortunately our flight was leaving at 8:20pm. We thanked Prince for a great experience and complimented him on his driving. Definitely a 5 star tour.

Paul exceeded all my expectations. He picked me up on time and stopped at a coffee shop after I told him the machine was broken in my hotel. I am traveling solo after my daughter became ill and it was my #1 bucket list item to see penguins. When we stopped at boulder beach it was high tide but Paul went above and beyond and came into the water with me and climbed over and under rocks helping me to get up close to the penguins and get perfect pictures and videos. He continued going above and beyond along the scenic drive by providing insight and history of the area. He knew all the great stops and I was able to get great pics around every corner. Thank you for a memorable day!

I can highly recommend Felix and his driver Gavin. Everything was perfect! We hired him for 3 days and he safely drove us 6 people around in a big new car. We went to Stellenbosch, Hermanus, Table Mountain, Simonstown, Boulder Beach and Cape of Good Hope. Gavin also took us to interesting places and restaurants that we never would have found on our own. A really good experience.

I took a chance on Felix, having read the positive reviews. I’d like to add my own:
He was consistently punctual, professional and knowledgeable. He was equally able to arrange a ‘posh’ wine tasting lunch as he was organising a tour of the Langa township. A small detail but his use of simple online payment links meant no messing about withdrawing cash or wiring money to overseas accounts. 100% recommended.

This is a worthwhile alternative to group tours. You have a reference template of where to go and what to see but the guide can adapt it to what you prefer to see or do.
Our guide Felix was on time, friendly and knowledged. His French was excellent.
The car was clean and comfortable.
The day's trip was smooth and enjoyable.
What else can you ask for?

Felix was a friendly, knowledgeable and prompt driver who was always ready to answer questions, offer explanations and detour into an ostrich farm when we expressed an interest. We never felt hurried, and his advice was excellent whether it was warning us about the strength of the wind or explaining how to join the shorter queue to see the penguins.
