A Powerful and Beautiful Day With My Family - Taking my family on the Robben Island and Table Mountain tour with Raw Tours was one of the most meaningful experiences we've shared. It was educational, emotional, and absolutely stunning. The kids asked questions the entire way, and our guide explained things so well that even the younger ones were fully engaged. Seeing the view from the top of Table Mountain together was a bonding moment we’ll never forget. I’m truly grateful for how smooth and well-run the day was — safe, respectful, and inspiring. Thank you, Raw Tours, for helping us make unforgettable family memories.

Robben Island and Cape of Good Hope - Our tour guide Alain was amazing. Robben Island is a must when visiting Cape Town. The area around the cape was so beautiful and the penguins were so much fun to see.
