“I was in Cape Town with my husband and sister, and we spent two wonderful days with our tour guide, Collen. He organized a perfect wine tasting at various wineries. When Robben Island couldn't be visited due to strong winds, Collen was very flexible and took us through the beautiful Kirstenbosch Botanical Garden, where we also enjoyed a delicious lunch. I highly recommend Collen to anyone looking for a professional, reliable, and extremely friendly guide for Cape Town and the surrounding area.”

Lena Bäuerle

"We made a tour to cape of good hope and boulders beach and we stopped at some nice spots. We got to see a lot of cape town and the area around which was amazing. Collen was very nice, explained many things and was on time. We would recommend doing this tour when coming to Cape Town."
