Hamilton was brilliant. We were lucky enough to share his vehicle with just one other couple. He really took great care of us and I only feel bad that we were to call him Hamilton because we could not say his given name. The only wish I have is that we could have had more time at Table mountain, we went up with prepaid tickets but had less than 20 minutes as we had to be back down in time to leave. Total time time at Table Mountain was only 75 minutes, not enough time to see anything because we had to jump back up into the line to get back down.

This is a perfect “light” tour for your first day in Cape Town. Glen did an awesome job. He is incredibly friendly and shared lots of great information.

Lovely and peaceful on the top of the mountain, took nearly an hour queuing. Could be an issue with the timings if some in the group wanted to do the longer walk. Drive afterwards was just getting a feel for Cape Town, more of a time filler, using the red tour bus would have been just as good.

This tour was decent but not great. We also did not get to go to table Mountain because of the wind which is not the guides fault. We really didn’t see all that much and what we did see wasn’t really of interest. The guide was knowledgeable Though. We would’ve rather spent more time in the neighborhoods or markets and the waterfront.
