“This combined tour offers the perfect balance of history and natural beauty. Robben Island was inspiring and educational, while Table Mountain was simply breathtaking. Everything was well organized.
“Excellent tour from start to finish! Robben Island gave us incredible insight into South Africa’s history, and Table Mountain offered some of the most spectacular views I’ve ever seen. A must-do experience.”
The combination of Robben Island and Table Mountain is worth every minute. The history and powerful stories from the island, followed by the stunning scenery from the mountain, created a truly memorable day
An unforgettable Cape Town experience! Visiting Robben Island was deeply moving, and ending the day with the breathtaking views from Table Mountain made it absolutely perfect. Highly recommended
Good way to see 2 key tourist attractions with 1 ticket. Boat trip and visit to Robben Island was well run and very informative. The cable car to table mountain and walk around the top was also a really good and great for photos of Cape Town. Plenty of time to complete both trips in one day.
The tour itself was wonderful — Table Mountain was spectacular, and Robben Island was very educational. However, we had a bit of confusion at the ferry terminal and couldn’t find our contact person right away. Once everything was sorted, the day went smoothly. Still a great experience overall!
This tour had the perfect balance stunning natural scenery at Table Mountain and powerful history on Robben Island. I really appreciated how our guide explained the cultural and historical background along the way. It gave so much context to the experience. Definitely one of the highlights of our trip to Cape Town!
it was such an amazing experience! We learned so much history, enjoyed beautiful views, and took so many great pictures. It’s definitely a day to remember!
This tour was absolutely incredible! The views from Table Mountain were breathtaking — you can literally see the entire city and coastline. Visiting Robben Island afterward was deeply moving; hearing about Nelson Mandela’s story from a former inmate was unforgettable. Everything was well organized, and the transfers between sites were smooth. Highly recommended for anyone visiting Cape Town!
Very good place and need more of food plus exercises. I would do it again and again becouse Bold ore dirisha dilo txe resa ditsebego😭
I enjoyed my self .the admission fee was free because the said is to know Nelson Mandela life experiences.nelson Mandela's life was not good but he did fight for our freedom
I experienced lot of things that I had not experienced before.I visited for 5 days. The crowd size is smaller compared to the province that i stay in. The staff members of the hotel that we've booked they were amazing,they were treating us in a good way.
My tour was good and I gained a lot of experience which I can assure that it will help me in the future and what I witnessed there it was beyond my expectations
My experience at the Table Mountain Cableway and Robben Island was truly unforgettable. The Cableway offered breathtaking panoramic views of Cape Town and the surrounding landscapes. The ride was smooth, and the scenery from the top was simply awe-inspiring. Later, visiting Robben Island was a deeply emotional and educational experience. Walking through the historic prison and hearing stories of Nelson Mandela and other political prisoners gave me a powerful insight into South Africa’s history. The guided tour was informative and respectful. Both sites offered a perfect balance of natural beauty and historical reflection, making it a meaningful and enriching journey.
The tour was a bit unorganised. The group was too big about 85 people and the poor guy giving the talk at Robben Island could hardly be heard. Not enough staff and need a smaller group. Much better tour organisation and tour at Alcatraz which we did a few years ago. Shame as the place is very interesting and lots of wildlife. Table Mountain was nice and well worth the trip up in the cable car.
Very honest gentleman has knowledge of what we need ,with him we fell relaxed and enjoyed our holiday in cape Town, keep it up They way he tell story and explain history behind it is so amazing 👏
