A fantastic introduction to the Cape! - Our family engaged Patrick (Cape Escape Tours) for two days, as we were brand new to Cape Town. The first morning, he guided us expertly through the beautiful and expansive Kirstenbosch National Botanical Gardens. From there, we drove south, down the False Bay coastal highway to the town of Kalk Bay. He took us first to the fish docks, where we saw the fresh catch (and seals awaiting scraps) as well as salted snoek fish drying in the sun. Next, he took us to Kalk Bay’s nearby beach-front town, and gave us our space to shop in the mixture of antique shops and beach boutiques. We met at the Brass Bell, a delicious restaurant separated from the breakers by tidal lap-pools. My wife and I enjoyed beer and wine with our lunch, while Patrick responsibly abstained. After lunch we continued down the coast to the Boulder Beach penguin colony, and then finally to the Cape of Good Hope lighthouse. While the sites and scenery were inherently beautiful and fascinating, Patrick’s historical and ecological commentary gave depth and meaning to a day of sightseeing. For our second day we requested a short spin through Bo-Kaap, and then a trip through wine country. For this, Patrick, a Frenchman, was a natural. After a colorful stroll through Bo-Kaap, we drove to the beautiful, ancient town of Stellenbosch, full of Dutch architecture and luxury shopping. After exploring for an hour or two, we regrouped with Patrick and drove to the nearby Delaire-Graff Estate for a wine tasting. We enjoyed Patrick’s company at the tasting table, but again he responsibly abstained. From there, Patrick drove us to the quaint and historical town of Franschhoek for lunch and wine in a delicious French restaurant. Patrick regrouped with us after lunch and he returned us to our Cape Town hotel, discussing history and current events along the way. We really appreciate Patrick’s knowledge, judgment and professionalism, and genuinely enjoyed his company and friendship. He provided us with a great exposure to the country around Cape Town.

Amazing local knowledge and history - The area is amazing and I really enjoyed the stops and the conversation with Frank, my guide. Felt more like a day out with an old friend than a tour - which is what I prefer!

Fun half day tour to Cape Point and the penguins with Patrick - Had a great half day with Patrick as we made our way down to Cape Point and back via Boulder's Beach (penguins). Patrick kept us well informed along the way and adjusted to our timing at the various stops. He was kind, professional and provided lots of insights. Communication to set up the tour was prompt and pick up at hotel was right on time. Although we did not need it, Patrick offers other tours that people may not know about such as hiking up Lions Head or mountain biking. All in all an enjoyable tour, we recommend.
