Great trip to see many sights. - Jean was a fabulous tour guide. His knowledge of the area and historical facts was phenomenal. The Robben Island tour was eye opening and emotional. To have a former prisoner take you through the prison and give his first hand experiences was invaluable. Jean gave a great walk through of the botanical garden. Be prepared to walk up hills and on uneven surfaces at the garden. It was fine for our group but is worth noting. The winery was fabulous and Jean handled the situation for us when an issue came up with our tasting. This is a great tour that will not dis’s appointment.

Definite tour to do while in Cape Town - Our experience on this trip was excellent from the beginning to the end. Jean was at our hotel at the time the booking listed and transported us safely and timely to all the destinations. Kirstenbosch exceeded my expectations by a mile. It was so beautiful and Jean was so knowledgeable about all the plants and places located within. Our wine experience exceeded our expectation and Jean quickly handled the situation when we had to change our schedule a bit due to the winery being too full. I would say that there is a lot of walking at Kirstenbosch and you should be prepared to climb uphill and on uneven surfaces. It was fine for our group but is good to know before you go. Robben Island was humbling and the tour by a former prisoner will stay with me forever.
