All of the places we went were great! Roland was a fun tour guide, but it was a little irritating that he picked us up an hour late from the published pickup time. Robben Island was the highlight of the day. However, because it wasn’t clear on the description from Viator that we needed to buy the Robben Island tickets days in advance (because they do sell out), it was touch and go until the very last minute whether we were going to be able to make the Robben Island tour or not. Viator needs to state that if you don’t already have Robben Island tickets, do not book the tour because chances are, you probably won’t be able to go.
greetings Jean hope you and family doing well i would thank you for bringing the matter to our attention and your complain means a lot to us as we would take it in consideration as that the only way we can improve i would once again apologize for the delay which was due to traffic congestion as from the highway N1 i expressed that i would start picking up other customers then you would be the last as your hotel accommodation was closer to Robben island and they were far away from your hotel, a small group we were booked i once again apologize for that, please accept my apology as for the Robben island ticket, i do recommend to each and anyone booked for the product to purchase the tickets as early as they would the same i advised to you, but your bookingcame at the latest few hours less than 24 hours i guess that's why i promised to get you tickets on waiting list if there would be any cancellation i here now taking action to highlight it on viator app specifically on the section of what your customer would know . thank you for being there for us and doing business with your advises been valued the highest regards,

What an amazing and busy day. From the Boat to Robben Island and all the history that it holds. To the amazing wonder of Table Mountain. The spectacular views and the sheer vastness of the Park it surrounds! Then to top it off to the Kirstenbosch National Botanical Garden for a final stop. What a spectacular garden set in the Table Mountain National Park. Beautiful setting...... In between a superb meal on Kloof Street at Kloof Street House. And all hosted by the knowledgeable and delightful Roland. What a day and what an experience. Would have shot a 5 every time, but the time keeping was slightly out and it was a struggle to get it all in....But well worth the money.
