Wonderful day full of history and culture - My husband and I took the Private Full Day Robben Island & CIty tour during our South African honeymoon. Our tour guide, James, was so knowledgeable as he led us around the city. The Robben Island tour was sobering and informative, and a must do when in Cape Town. Our driving tour covered many interesting neighborhoods, and included stops at the Company Gardens and the Castle of Good Hope.

Marc Anthony, Thank you! - I travelled to Capetown for my birthday this past May. I purchased the Robben Island and City Center Full Day Tour and I must say that my guide, Marc Anthony, was phenomenal. He was prompt and friendly. He has extensive knowledge of Capetown and it's history. I enjoyed learning about South Africa and conversing with him. Although I was travelling alone I never felt vulnerable with Marc and I know that this is in large part due to Marc's knowledge of Capetown and effortless pleasant attitude that he carried to every place and to every one we met. I cant praise him enough!Thank you Marc! Thank you Ilios!
