If you are only in Cape Town for a short visit this is a good introductory tour. It gives you a quick overview of the city and gets you the city’s two “must see” locations - Table Mountain and Robben Island. What stood out for us was the operator’s (ML Sultann) extra effort to ensure we were able to see these two locations. Weather, and in particular the wind, is always a risk in the Cape Town area. While the tour was able to get us up to the top of Table Mountain before it was shut down due to wind, we were not so lucky with the boat out to Robben Island. We were only going to be in town for one more day and the tickets for Robben Island were already sold out. We sadly assumed that we would have to leave Cape Town without being able to get out to the Island. Too our surprise and delight ML Sultan finagled tickets for the next morning, picked us up at our hotel, went with us to the ticket booth to ensure the tickets were there and then walked us to the boat. This operator gets an “A+” for customer service and extra effort!
The tour was awesome. mrs. val even met us at the circle of waterfront just to meet us and stayed with us in line for the Robben island tour. She also gave us chocolates which were fantastic.
