We had a wonderful time with Marchelle on the evening ghost tour through Montagu. Our children (ages ranging from between 9 and 14) really enjoyed navigating their way around Montagu on the old fashioned back-peddle bicycles. Marchelle’s ghost stories were very convincing, but also interesting from a historic point of view. Highly recommended and especially a nice time of day to avoid the summer heat.

Fabulous......My teenage son was impressed and that according to me is the best review anyone can get. Organizing the tour was easily done at the Montagu Hotel, Marchelle was on time, super knowledgeable and to top it of also possess an extremely good sense of humour. Having a good funny bone delivering a ghost tour is a vital ingredient I would think. I would totally recommend this tour.

Marchelle at Flying Feet was wonderful. My wife and I did a 90 private tour of Montagu on 06/01/2020 as part of our honeymoon itinerary. This town has some great stories and hidden gems and she helped us unlock all of that. The bicycles were beautiful and unique and they even arranged a champagne picnic stop on my request. I would certainly label this as a must-do in Montagu.

We phoned Marchelle in the morning because we like to have a small tour by a local person to find out a little bit more about Montagu. The place were we had a stopover for only 1 night. Because of our travel schedule we only had the morning (approx 2 hrs). The tour is easy for everyone. Even the use of an electric bicycle is offered. We ‘crossed’ around and at every stop there was something interesting to tell. We met and spoke to very friendly local people and visited a atelier. Obvious Marchelle is very populair and loved by the community in every neighborhood. We can recommend this tour to everyone from every age if you are interested in the history, the community, nature & cultural activities of Montagu.

This tour was a highlight of our trip to Montagu . Marchelle was really easy to communicate with both leading up to the trip and during the tour . She is very easy going, super knowledgeable and really helped us to understand more about the history and significance of Montagu in a way that we wouldn’t have done on our own including experiencing Montagu artists and local art .
The cycling was safe, very easy , not strenuous at all and a great way to get around Montagu .
I’d absolutely recommend Marchelle’s tours and next time will do another .

We just loved Marchelle energy and enthusiasm during our town tour . She was extremely helpful in arranging MTB for our 3 day stay with local routes to ride . The best route was Tallana route , the local new MTB trails trough the woods behind the town was great , but pretty twisty . Loved her involvement in the local community bike charity (BEN) . Top activity for bikers in Montegue

We are happy we booked the Art & History Bicycle Tour Montagu with Marchelle! It was one of the highlights of our South Africa Tour. Marchelle has a great energy! We visited three interesting galleries and found works of many very talented artists! Marchelle answered patiently all the questions we had concerning the town. It was like having some hours together with a friend. Next time we will not hesitate to book one of the other tours, e.g. MTB into the mountains. Thank you so much, Marchelle!

After initially booking onto the 0700-0830 tour which didn’t take place due to a technical error with the bookings, Marchelle was quick to apologise and ran a bespoke trip for me at 0900, and refunded me fully. She was very friendly, very knowledgable, I enjoyed the trip and I would recommend her as a guide to others. I would use the company again if I find myself in Montagu in the future.

Marchelle is an outstanding guide. As our time was limited she organized a tailor made town cycle tour in a whiff. Her knowledge of the area and it’s stories is excellent. She is an asset to Montagu and we cannot recommend her enough.
This is a must do experience.
