This was absolutely the best excursion ever! Doney is an amazing guide - personable, enthusiastic and very informative. Every minute of the day was perfectly planned and executed. We saw everything on the itinerary (something that rarely seems to happen on tours) and learned a lot. The penguins were my personal favorite part of the day, but each stop, from Cape Point and the Ostrich farm to Table Mountain, had spectacular vistas and experiences. It really made me fall in love with the city and the country.
