I booked for the Bunjee Jump at Bloukrans Bridge. The moment I met up with Brandon and Marcus when they picked me up, I immediately knew it would be a great time. Actually it is a 2-day trip as it's over 550km drive away from Cape Town. On our way we made various stops, which were super cool. Amazing experience. Stayed at the Stormsriver village, a great place to practice various activities, got the opportunity to do the zip lines in the trees over there. There's much more but I spent only 1 night there. Will certainly go back. Stayed at a backpackers lodge, had great food there. Brandon makes sure the trip is fantastic, I cannot thank him enough for all his guidance and explanations. Highly recommended.

We went on the Riviersonderend Kloofing hike. What an absolutely great experience. Our guide, Brendon, made sure that this was an unforgettable day. He was funny and made sure that the hole group was at ease when it came to the jumps. As mother I was nervous letting my boy do these jumps, but thanks to Brendon, the nerves quickly faded to the extend that I can not wait for the next Kloofing hike. I would definitely recommend this hike and don't worry to much if you are not that fit. Brendon is a patient and accommodating guide. Thank you for this great experience and the excellent service received from Cape Adventure Zone.

when i was planning my trip to capetown i made a mistake and booked all the days in cape central and did not know that the bungee are quite far from CBD, so i sent to many many companies maybe all of the popular ones and i always got an answer of " you are only three people, and we can only operate when four or more for a one night in the garden route" or either "if you agree we might have to charge you for the fouth place" and my answer was a NO NO. the only ones who helped me through and were so keen on fixing the perfect road trip for me for the two activities i wanted with even the best price was this company and not to forget The best tour guide we had along the way who showed us some hidden gems and gave us a brief about the country's culture and people, also he recommended best places to eat there in tsitsikama village "BRENHAN"... i can't even start from how professional he is and if i ever came back to cape town, i would definitely ask him to tour us again for a longer time.
the shark cage diving was amazing and the bungee was out of this world, this was definitely the high light of our trip.

My friend and I wanted to book kayaking with the penguins over our break. We decided to book it through Cape Adventure Zone, because we saw these great reviews. We had the worst experience! First off the trip they offer on their website is R100 (about $14) more then other ones I found afterward. They make you put down a R150 (about $20) deposit to save your spot plus and extra R200 (about $26) when you arrive.
Since my friend and I both have different credit cards we wanted to pay the deposit on each card. I had asked the women I was booking through, Amanda, multiple times to send the link for the deposit payment to both my friends email and mine. She only sent it to mine. I called her the morning that we were supposed to leave telling her that she never sent it. She then told me my friend might not be able to do the trip, because she had not paid the deposit.
It was getting to be about 10 minutes before we had to catch a train to get to the trip on time when Amanda finally got in contact with my friend and collected the deposit. However, by the time we had finalized it we had already missed our train which was the only one we could get to arrive in Simons Town in time for our tour. We were also informed right after we both paid that the weather was poor and the penguins would not even be out for us to see. When we asked for a refund they refused saying they only give refunds if the trip is canceled. They made us miss out train and our trip and still charged us the deposit! Horrible service and overpriced! I will never book through them again!

Firstly, let me take this opportunity to apologize for any inconvenience caused to you and your friend. I sincerely hope that this incident has not left you with a bad impression of Cape Town in general. We try extremely hard to provide a world class standard of service and if we slipped up in this regard, I can assure you it won't happen again.
Just to clarify a few issues regarding this booking. The activity “kayaking with the penguins”, is an outsourced activity, where we act as a booking agent for a specific service provider. In order to act as an agent and provide the customer with the benefits of being able to book online using a credit card plus the benefit of being able to book all your adventure activities and tours under one roof with a 24hr call line etc, we have to charge a small premium (the extra R100 you were talking about). Like any other business, this is a service you are paying for. As an agent and tour operator, we are consistently cheaper than most of our competitors in this regard.
With regards to the actual booking, we require a deposit upfront in order to confirm a booking and minimise “no-shows” (thus the R150 upfront). If we have not received a deposit we cannot confirm the booking. In this case we tried numerous times to send links for payment to your friend and received no response. In her defence, Amanda went out of her way to get hold of your friend in order to secure the booking, finally managing to do so only an hour or so before the trip. As far as the weather goes, we are very clear in our communication in that these trips are extremely weather dependant. If a trip is cancelled due to inclement weather, then the deposit is refunded. In this case, the trip was not cancelled. Instead, you decided not to go on the trip because the guide mentioned that the weather was not perfect and might be a bit windy. There were at least 10 other clients that actually did this particular trip and had a great experience with no complaints.
It is unfortunate that you used this forum to air your grievance. A simple email to our info box and I would have gone out of my way to resolve this issue. We will, of course, gladly refund your deposit and in the spirit of mending broken bridges, I would like to offer you a free kayaking trip if you ever find yourself in Cape Town again.
Once again, on behalf of my staff and our service provider, I would like to apologise for any inconvenience caused.

We had two such amazing days with Cape Adventures!! These guys are extremely professional, seem to love what they do, and are genuinely interesting in ensuring that the client has an amazing experience.
I must have sent at least a dozen emails with questions to Stephanie and she was so patient in replying to each one of my queries. Brenhan though was the star of the trip! He was hands down our best guide throughout the duration of our trip (and we had different guides almost every other day on a 16 day trip). Since some of the hikes and climbs are weather dependent, sometimes if you’re stuck with someone who doesn’t know how to improvise, it’s really difficult to have a great day. But Brenhan made sure there were plan Bs and plan Cs to make sure we had the most awesome two days ever! He took our preferences into consideration, and most of all made sure we were comfortable and were only doing things we were interested in doing.
I have already recommended this company to two of my friends who are travelling to SA soon, and can not recommend them enough to anyone who is reading this review!

I’ve done my Table Mountain Hike today with Brenhan and it was absolutely amazing. He was brilliant and gave me so much of insights not just about the hike, but in general as well. The hike was not an easy task but Brenhan kept me motivated and it was so much easy all thanks to him. It took almost 3 and a half hours to complete the full hike and I thank Brenhan for not giving up on me :’D
No arguments, these guys are well organized, punctual and showed excellent signs of professionalism. I’m so excited to do my Capepoint tour with them tomorrow. I’d surely recommend these guys to anyone. Thank you so much for making this trip memorable for me:)

So, I cannot begin to explain how delighted I was with CAZ. From start to finish they organised my adventure holiday. I am a very anxious person and it is the first time on a holiday I have not felt uptight about anything e.g. transfers, accommodation, activities...you name it they made it happen. Thank you Steph for organizing my life from the word go. This is the second time I am going through CAZ...I did an awesome 6 day Garden Route tour with them 2 years ago and now I had to partake in Cape Town based adventures. Before I go on, what I kind people CAZ set me up with for accommodations, transfers and activities. I felt like royalty the way people treated me that were hired from CAZ. Firstly, I went on a quick NAC helicopter flip (go for the longer flips guys...15 minutes is not enough), two horse-riding excursions through Franschoek which were absolutely mind blowing and the wine ride...I must say...k-ching to both the wineries we rode to...you can read my reviews on TA. My highlight was climbing the India Venter Route of Table Mountain. I have always had Table Mountain on my bucketlist but the weather has never been kind to me until now. Brehnan my guide...shjoe...I wish there were more people like him...he wasn't only a guide but a motivator. I am very unfit and he is very patient. He helped me get up all the nooks and crannies and even up the steepest slope. What I felt from his encouragement was what I wish it would be like on a daily basis with people encouraging you to do things beyond your limits and with praise afterwards. I had been going through a tough time but the hike definitely took away all the negativitly I had. I could even sleep for the next week because I had all my troubles lifted. I felt happy and confident again. I have done many tours in South Africa that I have paid so much money for and with CAZ I paid half the price for triple the adventure and value for money. I will be seeing you in the future for definite and will definitely recommend you as the best and only trusted company in CT and I would say RSA to. I wish that you could start something like CAZ in Jhb. Rat Race Relaxation...
Once again, thank you CAZ for everything you did for me. It was definitely my best holiday...my overseas holidays were not even as great as you guys were.

My partner and I went on a 1-hour quad bike tour for my birthday. We had such an amazing experience from the moment we arrived. Everything was set-up and ready to go. We were met by the owner, who was extremely friendly, making us feel instantaneously comfortable with these massive machines! The views were spectacular and the route varied in terrain, from being wooded to open gravel roads between the fynbos (the aroma just feels like home), but also giving you a few heart racing bumps and turns!
Will definitely recommend this activity and will be back for more!

We went as a group of friends and it was a great experience. It was fun and informative, with great guides and beautiful views en route. Not too challenging for novices either, well done. Most impressed. Thank you Cape Adventure Zone for this new adventure initiative in the Overberg. It's close enough, yet far enough from the hustle ;)
