Cape point fun ride.

TimothyD_L, July 2023

Michael was excellent in local knowledge and made tour more informative than large group tours. Coffee shop and restaurant both very good choices. Book and ask for Michael.

Response from Host, July 2023

Hi Timothy, thank you so much for the review we are so happy you had a lovely day out with Mike

Amazing day on the Cape Peninsula with tour guide Mike

Rebecca_S, Aug 2022

Mike took great care of us on our tour. He has excellent driving skills, is very knowledgeable, customized the tour for what we wanted, and went out of his way to make us happy.

Spectacular Capeday tour

Eric_B, Apr 2020

Michael Klerck was an excellent guide. We started the day with coffee at a funky shop in Cape Town, and Mike drove us through town, pointing out a large number of landmarks on the way. Leaving the downtown area, we made our way down the cape peninsula, spending as much time at each stop as we wanted. The scenery was stunning, and Mike gladly agreed to tell us (fun, entertaining) stories from his time growing up around Cape Town. He even added a bonus boat ride to a fantastic enourmous seal colony in Hout Bay. The van was spacious and the a/c worked great. Would highly recommend Mike to anyone looking to experience the cape peninsula!

Response from Host, Apr 2020

edbrager, Feb 2020

This is a great private tour. David the owner was very knowledgable, took us and informed about all the best spots in and around Capetown. It was a great way to see the highlights in one day. Highly recommend.

good relaxing day

sabrina_p, Jan 2020

Mikey the tour guide was really nice. He was very friendly with my kids buying them chocolates and sweets. He was also very professional, he changed the tour to adjust to traffic and busy times At Cape of Good Hope. We enjoyed the tour a lot.

Ask for Dave!!

Chickflyer119, Oct 2019

We booked after reading all the wonderful reviews of Dave, the tour guide. And the tour description said that we would be picked up in a “luxury vehicle”. This vehicle never achieved a comfortable temperature, and we had to have the fan on high all day, so we had a hard time hearing. Our tour guide was knowledgeable, but didn’t want to stick with the planned itinerary. When you travel halfway around the world and set aside a day of your life to have a nice tour (not too mention the expense!), it’s very disappointing to have things not work out....

Awesome trip

LENGKHEAM_L, Dec 2018

Dave arrived early during our day trip, waiting for us patiently as we had our breakfast. He was very friendly and warm when we first met. Upon hearing that my wife had an ear infection and that we needed medical attention, Dave brought us to a friendly doctor and the pharmacy, despite having to turn the itinerary around. Appreciate his thoughtfulness and seeing to our needs first. What we really like was also the lunch place that he booked for us which served really good fish and prawns. Dave is also a knowledgeable guide who also shared generously about his life experiences. Many thanks to Dave for a great day around Cape Town.

Excellent

Patrick_O, Oct 2018

Dave picked us up from our hotel and was very friendly. The day tour was great and it was good that Dave picked us up early so we didn’t have to queue all day. We drove down the coast to the cape pensinsula. We got the fenicula up to the light house, be warned there are approx 150 steps still to get. We drove to cape of good hop and saw lots of wildlife!We went on to Simons Town for lunch at a place Dave recommended. This was excellent!!Our final stop was boulders beach and the penguins.The great thing about this tour is that it is personal, therefore you can tailor it. We did by popping into hard rock in Camps Bay.Highly recommend this tour and Dave! Thank you for being part of our Honeymoon.

Susan H, Mar 2018

Dave was an amazing tour guide. He was so knowledgeable about history of the area, and willing to tailor the trip to our desires. Since we had lost a day of vacation due to a missed airline connection, he went out of his way to get as much in as he could. We saw the entire peninsula, climbed to the top of the lighthouse, spent time with the penguins, and so much more. We could not have asked for a better day and are very grateful to Dave for all he did for us.

An amazing full day's tour. Dave, the tour guide, is so knowledgeable and answered all questions asked of him. Definitely recommend this tour if you go to Cape Town.

p.needes, Dec 2017

This tour is a 'must do' while in Cape Town as the Cape scenery is stunning. The advantage of doing a private tour is that you can tailor it to suit your personal preferences. Dave was a very good and informative guide - and importantly allowed us to linger in the places we loved such as Cape Point and Boulder's Beach. The lunch at Simon's Town was also delicious. It's a lot to do in a day so get an early start to make the most of it!

clark.a.wilson, Dec 2017

Dave was the best tour guide we could have ever asked for!! Started as a tour guide, ended as a good friend. He extremely knowledgeable yet was also extremely generous and kind to us along the way. I wish he could go on all of our trips with us!! You can't go wrong booking this tour, It's worth every penny, if not more! Thanks for everything Dave!!!

Yvonne K, Nov 2017

This is the tour to take for personal service. Dave is everything you look for in a tour guide: considerate and congenial, an attentive driver, and not least someone who truly enjoys sharing his knowledge and experience with you. Forget the guidebook, just ride with Dave and you'll be rewarded with a rich, incomparable journey!

Andria B, Sept 2017

We couldn't have asked for a better guide than Dave for our private car driven tour from Cape Town to Hout Bay, the Cape of Good Hope and Boulders to see the penguins. Not only was Dave very knowledgeable about the different sights we visited, he ensured we were getting the most from our day by asking questions regarding our interests so he could tailor-make our experience to fit us. He was polite, genuine and had a great sense of humour. It was very evident that Dave truly wanted us to get the most from our tour. It happened to be my daughter's birthday and Dave arranged a surprise for her at an amazing restaurant we went to for lunch, complete with Champagne, a South African men's choir and a birthday card signed by the restaurant staff! Words can't begin to express the gratitude from my family to Dave for giving us memories we will cherish forever. If you want an excellent private tour guide of Cape Town and the vicinity then I highly recommend Dave to give you an experience you will cherish forever. Thank you so much Dave!

susie.garff.white, July 2017

Our family had such a great day with Dave! He really went out of his way to personalize the day to exactly what we were interested in seeing. When we asked to stop at an Ostrich farm we were driving past, he even bought us some Ostrich jerky to taste! He had great information to add to the sites and super suggestions. When our tour for the next day was cancelled due to weather, he and his wife both got in touch with all their contacts to help us make some backup plans. Talk about really going above and beyond all expectations...Dave really did! Thanks for the incredible memories and laughs, Dave!

Sachin_L, Oct 2016

Very very good day tour. Two days prior to the tour, got a call to ensure we had reached safely and inquired if a car seat was needed since we were traveling with a 4 year old. Tour operator was very effective communicator, very courteous, highly knowledgeable and goes out of the way for your comfort, safety and never rushed.

Anglica_M, Apr 2017

David foi espetacular, desde o momento que marquei o tour. Mesmo estando fora do pais, ligou-me para acertar detalhes. E no dia do tour, foi melhor ainda. Muito atencioso e extremamente educado. Deu-nos a conhecer, de forma menos turística possível, a Cape Peninsula.
