Remmy was a wonderful driver for the day. We weren’t able to do Robben Island due to bad weather so I asked him to take me to the slums. He drove me to Langa Township and he is very knowledgeable and shared his expertise on the area. We did manage to make it to Table Mountain as the day cleared up in the afternoon. It was a wonderful experience going to the township.
