We had an absolutely outstanding experience with Prestige Tours with Ordain Hove from Cape Town, thanks to our guide, Ordain. He took our family (myself, my wife, and our nine-year-old son) on a full-day tour of the Cape of Good Hope, and from start to finish, everything was exceptional. Ordain was punctual, professional, and incredibly welcoming. The entire day felt relaxed and unhurried—we never once felt rushed, which made the experience even more enjoyable. His knowledge of South Africa’s history, culture, and landmarks was impressive, and he shared it in a way that was engaging for both adults and our son. He struck the perfect balance between being informative and easygoing, making the tour both educational and fun. We enjoyed our time with him so much that we booked him again. Ordain went above and beyond by helping us arrange a shark cage diving experience. He handled all the logistics, drove us there, ensured we arrived with plenty of time, and once again made the entire day seamless and stress-free. On the way back, he continued to enhance the experience by pointing out additional sights and offering to show us other interesting areas—all without any sense of rushing. The vehicle was comfortable, the pacing was perfect, and Ordain was simply a pleasure to spend time with. His professionalism, warmth, and attention to detail truly set him apart. We would not hesitate for a second to recommend Ordain to anyone visiting Cape Town. He made our trip unforgettable.
It was an excellent experience and Mr Odien was very professional! Always on time and very accommodative, kind. We appreciate his work and highly recommend him for whoever would like to visit capetown for a wonderful experience.
The guidance was professional but with a touch of Home. Ordain was very sensitive to the fact that we were with young ones and they were never left out. He was also very patient with the ever changing demands of the family. This made our four day visit really memorable. Ready to do it again!
Audain was a great guide. He knows a lot about South Africa and is a real ambassador for the country. We could ask any question about the country and he knew something relevant to say. Very pleasant.
I have been to many places but this trip is by far the best trip ever, breathtaking. Excellent service from Ordain, he is very knowledgeable about this route and he made sure the tour was memorable ,comfortable and enjoyable. I highly recommend if you're thinking of booking a tour to enjoy Cape Town. @travel_withtiffany 🇿🇼 on IG

My family and I travel a lot, and our best vacation by far was our trip to South Africa! One of the highlights of the trip was our guided tour with Ordain from the beautiful vineyards in Stellenbosch to the Cape of Good Hope. The views from the Cape of Good Hope are unlike anything I have ever seen and the walk up was exhilarating! In addition to taking in the natural beauty, we also got to enjoy the penguins. This was a special treat for the kids. The transportation to each location was extremely comfortable and Ordain provided thoughtful and insightful information about the sites. Our group ranged in age from 10 to 50 and everyone enjoyed themselves. I highly recommend Ordain and can't wait to return to Cape Town!!
It was a good memorable moment with Ordain Hove, he is a very good trip advisor with good sense of humor. I highly recommend him for whoever is planning on having a trip to Cape Town.
We had a city drive to Table Mountain, Robbin Island and factory shopping. I enjoyed the late night shopping, Grand west Mall.
I Had an excellent time experiencing the beauty of Cape Town. Mr.Hove is a professional and friendly tour guide. He is also the owner of Ordain Tours. He knows the area and is quite resourceful.
Ordain helped to minimize unnecessary walking while enabling me to see so much of interest. He is very articulate, knowledgeable and is calm with good manners.
