We had a fantastic trip with our guide Armand. He was a fantastic tour guide - very knowledgeable and we learnt so many interesting facts about everywhere we visited. The tour was great, seeing the penguins, cape point and the stunning Chapman’s Peak view. Thanks Armand!

Absolutely amazing trip, seen so many different things that South Africa is famous for and James our tour guide was the best!

Spent a wonderful day exploring the Cape Peninsula and delicious late lunch at Harbour House in Kalk Bay.
