Definitely worth it!! - We had a great experience during our ascent of Table Mountain! Our Guide, Matt, picked us up at 8am, which was perfect to avoid the heat. The hike lasted 2.5 hours and was certainly tough. But the view from the top was absolutely spectacular and worth every effort. For the way back we used the cable car, which was a wonderful way to end our adventure. In short, a must-do if you are in the area! Good guidance, a challenging hike and a beautiful view make this an unforgettable experience. Highly recommended!

TABLE MOUNTAIN TREK - First class. Can not recommend Matt and his team highly enough. Our guide was extremely knowledgeable and friendly and gave us an experience we would have never had on our own. Thank you

Awesome private tour with Matt. 10/10 would book again! - I did a private tour with Matt Fletcher through Kirstenbosch Garden, up Skeleton Gorge and on to Table Mountain, going down the cable car. It was wonderful! Matt is very knowledgeable about the flora and could answer all my questions. I’m a petite, solo female traveler and felt very safe. 10/10 would book again.

Great guide! Pray for decent weather. - Matt is an excellent guide! Unfortunately for my wife and I, the weather did not go our way: strong winds and significant runoff from recent rains. We got about halfway up elevationwise—to the top of the ladders—but had to turn back due to the winds and high water levels. Matt gave us a detour on a contour trail to a rockslide so we could get our steps in and a nice view. We then returned to the gardens, our starting point, where Matt gave us a nice tour and lunch at the restaurant there. If you like hot chocolate, theirs is excellent! He then drove us to the front of the mountain at the base cable car station. The winds were howling! The cable car was not running. Even on a nice day, this is a very strenuous hike. If we made it all the way, it would have been over six miles to the top—the first part that we did accomplish was a relentless climb. If the cable car is not running, it’s a little under two miles down.

Matt - a lunch wizard - For us it was very useful to do the hike guided as there are several possibilities to hike up and part of our route included hiking up a waterfall. Matt was very well prepared for the hike including water and snacks for everyone - and even magically made a lunch out of his bag appear that we enjoyed at the best view spot of the hike (cheese, crackers, strawberries etc). Also Matt shared a lot of interesting insights about flora and fauna but also let us enjoy the hike in silence when necessary.

An experience we will never forget - The “Boss” Mathew was fantastic,he knew the right trail to use & we arrived at the top knowing everything about the nature & geology around us,he pointed out various land marks & as we got higher he provided refreshments,I’m sure he was monitoring our breathing etc we felt really safe as he was well in control,thank you Mathew for a great experience.

Table mountain summit - Matthew was absolutely amazing. From the beginning we made some changes to the plan and he was willing to go with the flow and help us best figure out what would work for our party. Throughout the hike he was not only knowledgeable but so very kind and encouraging. No matter how many breaks I needed or how many times I stopped he was always patient and I hope to do more guided hikes and biking trips with him in the future.
