We first came across Mike Brown Tours through Viator (which I believe owns Tripadvisor). My wife and I booked a tour and it was Mike Brown who responded to our request. There was no problem booking and Mike answered all our queries promptly as we e-mailed each other. In Capetown Mike arrived on-time, at our hotel, to pick us up and we took our tour to see the South African Penguins at Boulders Beach.The commentary we received on the way, about points of interest and history, was superb and we found Mike to be really friendly and easy to talk to. On arrival he directed us along the several boardwalks to give us the best views of these cute creatures and, as they are so used to humans, we were extremely close to them which enabled us to take some wonderful pictures and video. We were surprised at how loud the 'call' of these penguins was as they are so small.
After this Mike took us on a scenic tour to round off this half day. We were so impressed by Mikes knowledge, courtesy, helpfulness and willingness to 'tailor-make' any tour that we booked him again (twice). Highly recommended. Thanks very much Mike ,, Mick & Sandra

Review of: Cape Winelands

Mike brown, what a gentleman. We had 2 tours with mike to cape point and much more! Secondly to the winelands and all around stellenbosch and franschoeck. Absolutely superb, mike is such good company and his knowledge about his native land is fantastic. He looked after myself, my wife and my 6 year old like we were family. We will return to cape town and we will plan another trip with mike! We came away from both trips having made a new friend which we will keep in touch with, thanks mike Stephen, bev and esmay xxx

We had a great time visiting the penguins with Mike! He was an excellent tour guide, very attentive and showed us the best views of the areas we went through en route to Boulder’s Beach, which made the day even better. We would highly recommend!

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.
