          An Amazing day
          We arrived late in Cape town, and Gilbert accommodated us, even meeting us on the side of the road to find parking as we drop in from the airport. It was an amazing day, learning all the history and the food was really tasty. Thanks for sharing your wonderful history with us. God bless, Clint and Louise.

          Great tour
          It was our first day in Cape Town and Sebastian gave us a great tour. He shared many information on the city's history as well as of his family, and many tips useful for the upcoming days. He made us feel very safe and at ease the whole tour

          Great way to experience
          The tour was a great way to experience Cape Town in a new light. Buleani not only introduced us to great local food, but also provided us with a fascinating look into the history of his country. He also took our food preferences into account and we got a lot of food during the tour, some of which we took in a doggy bag for later. Overall great experience.

          Sebastian, a very friendly and very good tour guide
          We were lucky to have Sebastian as our tour guide. It was very informative and interesting with him. We learned a lot about history of CT/SA and the life of today in CT/SA. We strongly recommend Sebastian as a tour guide, also because he has a very positive personality.

          Awesome tour
          We had an awesome time with Gilbert. He took us to try a lot of local food (all delicious!) and give us lots of explanation on the town history and daily live. We could feel his passion of this city and it was great to meet all of his shop friends. Everyone was very welcoming and very nice. We also greatly appreciated that no food was wasted (leftovers were given to homeless). In addition Gilbert also gave us lot of recommendation on where/what to eat for our trip- that was greatly appreciated! We highly recommend this tour with Gilbert if you are a food/history lover

          Food, Culture & City Tour!
          Gilbert was fantastic! He touched base prior to the tour, so we knew where to meet and what to expect. The food choices and locations were authentic and varied which gave a great idea of multiple local foods. While doing the tour he included much information about the people, culture, and the city. I would recommend this to all ages!

          Sebastian, the passionate ❤️
          Sebastian helped me to have the best experience I could have in Cape Town. First, As I was alone traveling in his city, he gave me a lot of tips to feel safe every time when I was alone. Then, he showed me what was important to know about Cape Town and he adjusted the tour according to what he understood I also like :) it was amazing!!! Finally he helped with my other plans in Cape Town. Sebastian, is a passionate, funny and extremely humble person, trust me all comments done and mine represent who he is, someone you want to meet :))) Thanks again Sebastian

          Tour-guide NoShow, no info about cancelation, no apology, but got $$ back.
          First the tour guide contacted me to say he would have to send a colleague an hour later than scheduled as he had an accident. Which would have been fine, except he mixed the weeks and was 7 days too early. Can happen and we have clarified. One week later we arrived at the designated place as per the ticket purchased. Just the guide did never show up. Reached out to him (Nathan), seemingly he had canceled the tour at the tour operator 'withlocals'. This was a big disappointment as nobody did bother to inform us and we wasted half a day as a result. Did not even receive an apology from either Nathan or withlocals. Bad experience but I gave two points as we got at least reimbursed.

          A perfect introduction to Cape Town
          Gilbert was the perfect guide for our first day in Cape Town. He provided is with a great overview of the city while mixing in the history and points of interest. We loved the fact that he shared family history that brought many of the areas to life and that he tailored the trip to our needs.

          Excellent tour with Sebastian
          We spent 4 hours on the highlights of Cape Town tour and it was excellent. Sebastian is very easy going and nothing was too much trouble. He was very knowledgeable and it was fascinating hearing the history and especially the impact of apartheid given that is recent history in our lifetime. I would thoroughly recommend Sebastian.

          Local tour of fascinating Cape Town
          Christopher’s tour was top notch. I recommend anyone who wants to get past the surface level things to dive into a local’s tour.

        Spending the day with Daryl was a delight. He is so knowledgeable about Cape Town and shared so many unique experiences with us (including the bathroom with a view - IYKYK). He was very focused on our interests and wishes and focused on delivering a memorable experience. We had a great time.

        Our day trip to Cape Point with Sebastian was incredible, just my husband & I and we felt very pampered! Sebastian exceeded our expectations, going above and beyond to make certain we had the trip we hoped for, ticking off everything on our wishlist. He worked with us in advance, with exceptional insight and speedy communication to curate a fantastic personal experience. Sebastian’s knowledge of the area and the city ensured a seamlessly coordinated trip. We also appreciated his wonderful commentary about the places we visited- we learned so much!
        Thank you, Sebastian!

        The Cape Peninsula is amazingly beautiful and Theo’s excellent tour highlighted that.
        Theo packed as much as possible into this day trip - From beautiful suburbs, wine tasting, stunning coastlines, penguins to the cutest baby ostriches in the Cape Peninsula. Theo had a great knowledge of the area and it’s fauna and flora. It was a privilege to have Theo as our guide. I would join his tours again in a heartbeat.

        Really enjoyed our day touring with Rushdi. Prompt pick-up, spotlessly
        clean vehicle, and he even provided cold water. He did a great job
        of sharing context and history as we enjoyed the natural beauty along
        the peninsula. His choice of lunch stop was outstanding. A gorgeous
        view in a restaurant with great food and service. Wrapping up the
        day with a wine tasting in a beautiful setting was icing on the cake.
        Highly recommend Rushdi!!

        We had a wonderful day with Sebastian and could not recommend a better
        guide. He was very open to teaching us the history and sharing his
        culture. He was more than happy to discuss sensitive subjects so we
        could really get a feel for what life in South Africa truly is. He is
        funny, easygoing with an impressive knowledge of history and his
        country. He allowed us time to do a hike as we love the outdoors. The scenery is stunning. We enjoyed our tour, thank you so much!

        We went on two tours with Daryl ( Scenic Cape Town Peninsula & Cape Town Classics Tour). Daryl was wonderful and went the extra mile to make our visit a special experience. His easy going attitude and knowledge of the area make him a joy to be with. He was extremely helpful in answering our questions which made our tour more enjoyable. At the end of the second tour, we felt that we had lost a good friend. When people say that the Guide makes the the tour memorable, they are right. Our hats off to Darly.... highly recommend him...Daryl, thanks for a wonderful experience

        We booked the Scenic Cape Town Peninsula day tour. We had a wonderful
        day with Daryl, he was amazing! We got a completely customized tour
        and instead of being back at the hotel by 4pm, he dropped us of at
        Camps Bay at 6pm for our last sundowner in CT. We enjoyed every minute
        with him and have fantastic memories of our day trip! Thank you so
        much, Daryl, and hope to see you again!
