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.

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

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.

Getting to know a great city. - My husband and I had a great experience walking for 4 hours through Capetown with Sebastian. Not only does he have a very eleborate knowledge of the history of South-Africa, Capetown and its people, he also has a great sense of humour. He is very kind and makes you feel safe at any moment. If you are looking for someone to guide you through this city, look no further: Sebastian is the man you need.

Good to explore more of the city - Parinita was an excellent guide. She took us to all the places we wanted to see and gave us tips on where to eat. This is a really good way to learn about the history of the city and to see places like Bo Kaap, where the hop on hop off bus doesn't go.

Excellent introduction to Cape Town - We (a group of 4 adults) have chosen the Withlocals company and their guide Sebastian to show us Cape Town based on feedback from other customers. And it was a good decision 🙂 We can confirm the very positive oppinions from other travelers. Sebastian is a very competent, friendly and supportive guide. During the 4 hours walking tour through the center of Cape Town we have learned a lot about different aspects of the city and about the history of South Africa. If you come to Cape Town for the first time, we can warmly recommend to engage the Withlocals company and Sebastian as a guide at the begining of your stay to give you an excellent introduction to this amazing city.

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.

Poor communication - Traveled to Cape Town with friends. We booked this excursion 1 month out and was excited to participate. The day before this voucher, my friend received a notice stating it was canceled. A refund was issued for 4 people. However, I did not receive this same notice, and when I tried to explain this situation to obtain a refund- I was met with silence. For obvious reasons, I did not feel safe traveling to this pick up location alone and thereafter leaving the drop off location alone as well. Our voucher was for Sept 13th. I have yet to receive any communication or refund regarding this matter. My advise, it's not worth fighting for $155 due to the majority of your party being canceled and met with absolute no communication
