Great selection of food and vibrate entertainment. The transfer was hassle free. It was wonderful not to have to worry about finding an Uber at the end of the night.

Pick up drop off was good...table service was excellent...entertainment was short...did not get to take pics
AMAZING is then best way to describe this experience. Great entertainment, great staff and great food. And so much food!! if you are in Cape Town you can't miss this.
This was a really fun evening and highly recommended. We were picked up on time from our hotel and the communication with the driver was excellent. The starts with everyone in the room (over 100 people) playing a drum. As a great we were pretty hopeless, but everyone had fun. The food they serve is around 15 dishes (broadly 15 courses) with some vegetarian dishes, some fish and meat. Each dish is from a different country in Africa. The food was fine, but in our opinion, not always that great - we like some dishes more than others to say the least. This is an enjoyable evening and I would recommend it to others and would do it again myself if I am in Cape Town again.
The drums and singing take place periodically throughout the evening rather than a one and done style show. It was very nice. The food was amazing!!! The individual portion was SO GENEROUS! I couldn’t finish it. All the staff were extremely hospitable. 10/10
I had a grade three and a half hour e-bike tour of various parts of Cape Town, South Africa. William, my tour guide was very helpful and friendly, and I highly recommend him if you are in town and have some time to explore the city and surrounding area
Do not miss this experience, a lot of fun, our driver Walled was amazing! The supper was great and the show was so much fun. Would highly recommend it.
DEFINITELY A MUST DO IN CAPE TOWN....venue was absolutely amazing....all of the servers, dancers and drummers were wonderful....we were able to sample lots of different African food...while enjoying an awesome show...don't wait till the last minute or you will miss out..this show sells out quickly.
This was a fun evening. The fun was decent and the entertainment was really fun. The dancers were great to see and they even have the men dance. It was a fun and interesting evening.
Outstanding. Highly recommend you will not be disappointed. Amazing food entertainment and service. 😊
Amazing night .. entertainment was incredible and fun and the meal was delicious! I recommend this African Drums & meal evening
This experience was amazing. Communication from our driver was great! We always knew what time to be ready and where to meet. This experience Is very interactive from drumming g, dancing, shows, face painting and the food experience. Highly recommended. Even the locals said this was the best one.
the show and interactive drumming was fabulous, food very good and our pick up driver arrived early and was easy to find after the show
Absolutely amazing! Beginning to end. Amazing food. Great music. Smooth pickup before and after. 10 out of 10 recommend!
This 14 course dinner was a fun way to explore some of African culture. The food was tasty and all the various dishes were explained to us and from which region they were part of. The drumming was a very fun activity. All the diners were involved. It was quite an experience to have the entire (large) room participate. Dancing and singing were also part of the entertainment. There was also optional face painting. I would recommend this activity - good food and fun and an easy way to learn a bit about African culture.
This was a very entertaining evening. The venue was exciting to look at and the performers were great. It was especially surprising and nice to have the performers come up to the balcony level to drum and dance right in front of us! A colorful and energizing experience. The meal was not quite as good as the entertainment, in my opinion; I expected to enjoy it more. It tasted just okay, but was plentiful and the service was very good. Overall, I would recommend doing this.
We arrived early and were seated. The first part of the show was full audience participation. We each had our own drums and were led through several drumming sequences. Very energetic. During dinner the show continued on stage and at various locations around the venue. Lots of fun. They provided about 20 varieties of food each served family style so you got to taste many different dishes. Most of it was very good and we were very full. Would recommend for a nice evening.
Excellent show and excellent food everything was delicious. It’s a must do in Cape Town. It won’t disappoint
A fabulous evening was had by all. The food was amazing and the entertainment with crowd participation was great.
A definite experience to be done! Entertainment and food were excellent. The menu was great. Just enough of everything. Learning to play the drum was fun.
This was great fun. Food was good Dancers where very good and had the crowd going. Highly recommend.
Bring friends and share this fun interactive evening. The drumming lesson set the tone for the evening. Fun, laughter, and entertaining! The dancing, singing and theatrics were exceptional. The food was also delicious. It is a long night but worth it!
If you have a free night in Cape Town this is a must do. The performance is part interactive and we enjoy every minute of it. The show altogether was great and the artists very good and friendly. The 14 course sample menu was very good, perfect portions and served at the right temperature along with all the explanations. Everyone was friendly and you feel included in a large family. We were very happy we chose to do this tour. We highly recommend it
Incredible authentic experience, food was amazing and entertainment even better. Would recommend to anyone coming to Cape Town.
A fantastic immersive experience. Very well managed and delivered show,plenty of quality food and servcie. Don’t miss it!
Hot… Drumming was absolutely a hit! Very engaging and entertaining. Cold… Food mediocre! Wasn’t served hot and could not hear server’s explanation of food/region.
Authentic cuisine.. so flavourful and absolutely delicious. So much food! Such a fun evening jammed packed with interaction, music, and culture!! Definitely would recommend.. you won’t be disappointed. Thank you to all the staff for your attention to detail, friendliness and care.
This was amazing! The dinner was spectacular and the African drumming and show was great! We were even a bit late for our ride due to another tour getting us back late and they still got us to the show and dinner!
This is a must do experience when visiting Cape Town. We were entertained from the moment we entered the front door. You feel like you’re getting the full African experience with the face painting and drumming experience. It was so much fun. The food was delicious and plentiful, the drinks were very reasonably priced and the staff were amazing. I’d definitely come back here on my next visit.
Brilliant show, get to get involved wirh the drumming etc, the waiters/waitresses are sp pleasant & helpful, 14 courses!!!! And they explained everyone, when I said I don't eat fish, she remembered & brought me the vegetarian option, unfortunately couldn't eat them all as I'm a complete wuss when it comes to spices, so to hot for me, bur was still full after not eating 6 of the dishes!!!! Wonderful atmosphere, and marvelous price, and the pick up/ drop off went without a hitch, I can't rate this highly enough 👍
fun and entertaining evening. Good food. Very good with allergies. Drumming and dancing. Everyone involved!
This was so much fun! We were a group of 28 and everyone enjoyed a taste of African culture through the food, drinks and entertainment.
We had such a great night at GOLD Restaurant. The whole experience kicked off with a drumming lesson, and it was honestly way more fun than expected. Everyone in our group got into the experience. Even if you’ve never touched a drum before, they make it super easy—and the energy in the room is contagious. The Afrikaans and African entertainment throughout the evening was amazing. The performers were so talented, and the music and dancing made the whole night feel really special. And the food… wow. Every course was delicious. It was the kind of meal where you keep saying “okay, THIS one is my favorite,” and then the next dish comes out and changes your mind again. Such a fun, unique night out. Highly recommend if you want great food, great vibes, and a little cultural adventure mixed in.
If you are in Cape Town be sure to spend one evening at Gold Restaurant. We had a great time participating in the interactive drumming and the dinner was delicious.
The drumming show and dinner were excellent. The staff at the Gold Restaurant were very attentive. The only negative was the transportation to and from the dinner. Our driver picked us up 20 minutes late and then drove past the restaurant out of the way to pick up others. We arrived at the show almost 30 minutes late after the show had already started. We were seated upstairs in the back where we could not see because all the seats on the main floor were taken by guests who arrived on time. After the show and dinner, our driver was not there to take us back to the hotel. The restaurant manager had to get us a ride.
I know Gold’s is a touristy spot but I highly recommend going. We were warmly welcomed and seated immediately and our drink orders taken. Shortly thereafter the entertainment began and we were included. Every seat had their own drum and we helped provide the beat for the opening program. So much fun. At 1st when I heard that a 14 course dinner was going to be served I was a little concerned about eating so much but each course was a perfect tasting size. It allowed me to try so many different things without getting overly full. The dishes were tasty and served at the temperature that they should be. The wait staff were very friendly, helpful and couldn’t do enough for us. They were always checking in on us. The main entertainment was fantastic. The female African dancers were great. We couldn’t believe how well they performed for us much less the multiple other areas thruout the restaurant that the performed in. I LOVED the Africa map in the lobby that showed the staff and where each of them were from. I’m so glad we did this.
Best event, delicious food and wine, wonderful service, gorgeous setting, dancing and singing were exceptional.
This was our first trip to South Africa and it was a fun way to feel part of the culture and to try some of the African food. It’s definitely geared towards tourist, but it’s fun.
This dinner was one of the highlights of my 2 week trip to South Africa. The food was delicious, the entertainment was beyond amazing and so much fun. The staff were warm & welcoming….& I was picked up and dropped off at my hotel too. This is a must do while in Cape Town but book early as it does sell out!
I know I am probably going to mess his name up but Prulele was an amazing server. He was very attentive and aware of our needs. He explained every course in detail and had answers to questions we had. Also, the drumming portion of the night and the constant songs and dances were great during dinner. Since we live Hawai’i, this was an equivalent of our luaus.
The event and food were authentic cultural experiences reflective of the diverse countries across Africa. Since I traveled alone, I liked the safety aspect of being picked up and dropped off at my hotel.
The most amazing experience . Drums!!! ....our own at our table! And the food...OMG...soooo good! Mom and I are so happy we went!!!
Amazing, food excellent, great way to try new foods and the entertainment was outstanding. Great evening.
Amazing experience from start to finish, highly recommend it
This is a must do interactive, authentic African experience. Food was great and entertainment was even better!
This is a unique experience and an absolute must on your list if things to do in Cape Town. Excellent food, excellent entertainment and excellent staff. You will never be bored and will always be engaged.
10/10 stars. The food was good. Out tour guide was great but this experience was the highlight of our trip. I enjoyed and highly recommend
Fun night out. Easy transportation . Safe snd clean. Great cultural experience with drumming and dancing. Food was interesting
Amazing and engaging experience that exceeded our expectations. The authentic cultural foods paired well with the cultural attire all hosts and staff adorned. Get lost in a evening of live interaction of drummers, dancers, and dinners. A must do experience when in Cape Town.
Maxwell was the most personable guide who made sure we got to see all activities on the itinerary. He ensured all gusts were informed and went our his way to help.
