Wow, what an experience! Every part of it was spot on. Easy to book, great communication throughout, a pickup from our hotel bang on time, a fully guided walk up Platterklip Gorge, a host of interesting facts and wildlife observations, and, much, much, more. And, boy was it worth it! Great views all the way up as the sun rose and then the joy of reaching the top all under our own steam. Thanks Lynette, much appreciated.

Well organised, collected direct from our hotel at the time agreed. Clear communication upfront. Really enjoyable experience - pace was set for the groups ability, only half a dozen in the group which was good. Lots of information along the way which we wouldn’t have got if we’d done this without a guide.

Really enjoyed our hike up Table Mountain with Lynette. We chose Platterklip Gorge. We had thought about doing it ourselves but friends had advised going with a guide for safety. I think we would have been safe as it was a weekend morning so it was busy, but I’m really glad we went with Lynette as she gave us lots of information about the mountain and Cape Town that we wouldn’t have known otherwise. She picked us up promptly, and the group was only small which was good (half a dozen). I’d definitely do more hikes with her if we were visiting the city again.

We were a mid 20’s couple who regularly gym but have never hiked and first time in Cape Town so opted for a guide tour. We went for the platteklip gorge route. Our guide Lynette was amazing! We loved the hike and were so happy we took the decision to hike instead of the cable car up to the top. Couldn’t recommend this enough.

It was the fourth hike with OTC Adventures and everything was perfect (as always). Lynette and the team is well organised and the whole experience is just amazing! The guide told us lots of interesting facts about Cape Town and the nature and adapted to our fitness level perfectly.
