Incredible experience! Beautiful, challenging and fun! - I had the BEST time on this hike. I did the India Venster trail which was really fun. It was a really diverse trail which made the journey to the top beautiful, engaging, breathtaking and with some interesting challenges. I would highly recommend Rob, he’s extremely knowledgable and kind. It was great to have him alongside as a friend and helpful as a coach to know the best ways to climb the mountain and the rocks (foot and hand placement etc). I hve so many amazing pictures and videos from the trail, it was honestly such a fun experience! Make sure you take lots of water with you!

Adventures at Table Mountain - Thank you Rob for this unforgettable hike at India Venster. I didn't want to hike alone on Table Mountain, so I booked a tour by wild things outdoor. I didn't regret it for a second. The communication in advance was super easy. The pace was always adapted and in the difficult parts he explained everything to me in detail. We had a lot of fun discovering geology, the rocks and cracks. Rob always has coffee with him for the summit and knows the best places for it. I can only recommend the tours and would do it again at any time.

Wonderful foggy day - Table Mountain Is amazing. This route, in particular, is so varied. My guide was Rob, he is wonderful and helped me to understand the beauty of the mountain although it's covered by the fog

Brilliant hike even in bad weather! - Stuart is a fantastic guide who clearly loves what he does and is keen to impart knowledge and get you excited about the wonderful fynbos all around you on the hiking trail It's a great route up Table Mountain and we always felt safe and never rushed. Sadly we went up on a day when the mountain had it's table cloth on and hiked through the cloud to the top, but we had a fab time despite this! Highly recommended route in any weather :)

Fabulous way to see table mountain - We had an incredible experience with Stuart. He guided us on the India Venster route up Table Mountain and, while it was a *little* scary at times for people with a fear of heights (like me), he made us extremely comfortable and safe. He was extremely knowledgeable about flora, fauna, and the history of Cape Town and this was one of our top adventures while in South Africa. Book it today!

Excellent guiding company - Highly recommend Wild Things Outdoors; I did two tours with them: Lions Head at Sunrise and India Venster Table Mountain, both with excellent guides who were extremely friendly and knowledgeable and provided fantastic experiences during my visit to Cape Town.
