Exceptional tour of Cape Town city and Table Mountain! - The entire tour was exceptional. We went to Table Mountain before the crowds, toured the city, including Bo-Kap, Company Gardens and a truly impressive guided tour at District Six museum. Danson (Danny) went out of his way to walk us around the city and get us comfortable with our surroundings. His knowledge of the city and its history and nature were excellent. He helped us get great photos throughout the day and even dropped us at a place he recommended for a late lunch that was terrific. Highly recommend this tour.

Half day Cape Town with 14 friends - On Dec 7, 2024, 14 of us spend half day visiting Cape Town before our embarking on our cruise ship vacation. Peter was our guide. Junior from Cape Archives Tour office communicated with our group leader, Wendy, endlessly to streamline our pickup and drop off arrangements. 14 people with 14+ number of luggage was not an easy group to handle. Cape Archives had to arrange a separate truck to transport our luggages to the cruise terminal, all streamlined without wasting time. Peter began the tour with an informative description of Cape Town history, then and now, we then visited iconic places like table mountain national park (ticket including) with its breathtaking scenery of Cape Town below, colourful houses in Bo-Kaap, city Center panoramic tour and the beautiful beaches at Clifton. Peter returned us to the cruise terminal on time for us to continue our vacation in South Africa. As our time is limited, there are sites we didn’t get to visit on this trip. Would use this tour company again on future visits.

excellent experience! - The city tour by private guided is excellent. We give thumb up to Rodney, our guide because he's very informative & attentive. Very new & clean mini van. Even through the cable car at table mountain was canceled due to bad weather but we got our tickets to experience the next day.

Fantastic Guide and tour. - Our driver and guide Kelvin was absolutely fantastic- he looked after us well - he is first class. The tour itself was great and of course it happened to be a very sunny and clear day, so we had some wonderful views of CapeTown from the top of the mountain.

Unforgettable experience. Highly recommend this tour! - Took the fast track cable car so there is less waiting time and we were up Table Mountain in 15 minutes upon arrival. Perfect weather that day so we had breathtaking views of Cape Town. Also had a great time viewing the unique plant species on top of the mountain. The city tour was well-paced and our guide, Peter, was very knowledgeable about the city's history and culture. We covered most of the major attractions in one day. Thoroughly enjoyed the trip and hope to come back to visit with family.

It’s an experience we will really treasure and can’t recommend it enough if you want to be spoiled with information and treated like a VIP 😍💯 We really connected with Kelvin beyond cultures and borders and this authentic SA experience will be one to remember. Thanks Kelvin ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
