Fantastic Tour With Laticia - I had an amazing experience on this tour, thanks to our guide, LatÃcia. She was funny, energetic, and clearly passionate about her job. Her knowledge made the tour incredibly informative, and she shared so much about the history and culture with enthusiasm. The small group size made the experience more personal, and we had plenty of opportunities for photos at the best spots. It was clear that LatÃcia is proud of her country, which made the tour even more special. Highly recommend!

A very fun tour with Notando - Unfortunately, we booked this tour with Glorious Tours on the wrong date, but we were lucky and could still participate spontaneously. Notando picked us up by minibus and enchanted the tour guests within minutes with her lively and funny manner. We were an international group of 9 people and had sooo much fun. Natando gave us a lot of inside knowledge about the African mentality and culture. That was much more interesting than dates and buildings. Notanda we love you!

Capetown City Tour - I had the pleasure of taking Capetown City Tour with Doney. The experience was more than I imagined. The locations were well planned such as a visit to Table Mountain, Lion's Head and Cayman Beach. Doney communicated all aspects of the city with history and pride of her country. I would definitely recommend the tour to others coming to South Africa.
