Ian was recommended by a friend on our recent world cruise. We are so glad that we followed his advice!! Ian responded quickly to our request and set up our Cape Point tour. He kept us updated prior to our arrival and was waiting for us on the dock when we arrived. What followed was an amazing tour of Cape Town and Cape Point, and all the areas in between. Ian was very friendly, quite informative, and very willing to make changes in the basic itinerary, if we saw something that looked interesting. I cannot say enough about how comfortable he made us feel. We had a beautiful sunny day, and the various stops along viewpoints were simply magnificent. Our adventures at Cape Point, Boulder Beach, the winery and everywhere else made it a trip to remember. Ian didn’t just take us to an attraction and drop us off, he accompanied us the entire time, providing additional color and insight into the beautiful sites we were seeing. I cannot offer enough superlatives for his professionalism, quality of service and friendliness. If you want an African adventure to remember, contact Ian at African Moon Adventures..

We were only in Cape Town for a few days and wanted a tour that got the most activities in...and THIS WAS THE ONE. Ian is an exceptional guide..funny and knowledgeable. We had some rain at the start and end of the tour but it didn't matter as we still got to see all the sights. Ian's timing of the attractions was great as when we stopped at different places it wasn't crowded or full of other tours so we were able to take our time and take in the breat taking scenery. This tour has it all. I loved all the animals we saw along the way..baboons, ostriches, penguins,a dassi and peacocks! Funusyed off the day with some beautiful wine tastings. You should definitely do this tour!

This tour was everything and more! Ian did an amazing job showing us around all the beautiful beaches, cliff sides, and scenic areas we didn’t even know existed. We had so much fun taking pictures (he is also an excellent photographer), feeding ostriches, visiting the cutest penguins, and had an amazing lunch followed by a visit to a local winery. Ian is extremely knowledgeable and fun to be around for the day which is a bonus. Thanks so much Ian for showing us southern girls around, we loved it!

My husband and I really enjoyed our day trip with Ian. In spite of some variable weather, the tour and sites didn’t disappoint and we particularly enjoyed the Cape of Good Hope, Chapmans Peak and Boulders Beach (penguins) and the wine tasting., Ian was friendly, informative and considerate. It was a perfect tour and we would highly recommend!
