Spectacular and amazing!!! - I went on a tour Leonard Botha from Afriican Sun Tours. The Cape Peninsula and Penguin Beach were and amazing wonder of the world. Not to mention the amazing wonder of the tour guide Leaonard I had. We went to Ostrich farm (close to Cape of Good Hope) which was great. Penguin Beach is a once in a lifetime spectacular place that you cannot miss. Then we went for a great dinner close by. You cannot do this amazing once in a life time tour independently and must hire Leaonard Otha from African Sun Tors.

Amazing scenery and experience - Leonard arranged a helicopter tour of the Peninsula and then took me on the drive of the area I had seen from the air. It was awesome to experience both from the land and air. Leonard is a superb host and a very nice man, I was travelling solo and Leonard made me feel comfortable from the start. It was like driving around with a friend who has intimate knowledge of all the best places to go and really interesting details about the history of Capetown. I would rate Leonard 11 out of 10 and cannot recommend him highly enough!

An Amazing Tour Guide - If you’re looking for personable, experienced tour guide, then look no further. Mr Leonard of African Sun Tours is an amazing tour guide. From the Big Five, Table Mountain to Robbin Island, He is very knowledgeable of the history as well as the significance of each site. He took the time to personalize our experience and to meet our needs, while being mindful of our schedules. Our safety and our wellbeing was always a concern for him. Mr Leonard made traveling to CapeTown an awesome experience for us! I’m looking forward to returning with my daughters in 2024.
