Our Table Mountain trip was perfect. The arrangements went seamlessly. Our guide was lovely and fully accommodated our needs. Thank you
My husband and I booked this private tour with Gabriel to take the cable car up to Table Mountain. We elected to purchase the fast track passes, and were glad we did. The queue was quite long so very happy to be able to whisk our way right up. I don’t think I’ve ever seen more beautiful scenery! Gabriel was a pleasant, nice, helpful guide and gave us good suggestions without being pushy. He was a welcome companion as we walked around to the various scenic overlooks. He also had a nice car and drove well. We would definitely recommend this tour, and especially Gabriel.
Thank you so much for sharing your experience! We’re delighted to hear that you enjoyed your Table Mountain tour and that the fast-track passes made your visit smooth and enjoyable. The views from the top truly are unforgettable. We’re especially pleased that Gabriel made your day memorable with his guidance, comfort, and hospitality. He will be very happy to hear your kind words. Thank you for recommending our tour — we truly appreciate it and hope to welcome you back for more Cape Town adventures in the future!
We did this trip with Fayical from Cape Coast Explore. He’s a great guy and a great guide. He’s knowledgeable, friendly, reliable, and flexible. He accommodated all our needs, right down to details like advanced checking and notification regarding the cloud weather on Table Mountain, as well as adding in extra value sights and insights on the tour. He’ll ensure you have a perfect experience, including fast-track cable car tickets, transfers in his luxury mini-bus, and an overall VIP experience. The top of Table Top Mountain is an essential component in every tourist’s visit to Cape Town. We’d highly recommend that you book this activity with Fayical.
Dear Dave, Thank you so much for your wonderful review and kind words about your experience with Fayical. We’re thrilled to hear that you enjoyed the Table Mountain tour and appreciated his knowledge, flexibility, and attention to detail. Providing a seamless, VIP experience for our guests is always our goal, and it’s great to know that every part of your day—from the fast-track tickets to the added insights—made your visit memorable. We truly appreciate your recommendation and hope to welcome you back on another Cape Town adventure soon! Warm regards, The HYM Cape Tours Team
SCAM ALERT - Do not book! We booked a tour for three people covering Table Mountain, Bo-Kaap, and Signal Hill for $159 USD each. We were picked up by a tour guide, Samuel, who barely spoke to us - he then very recklessly drove us to the mountain, sent us up the cable car, and then hurriedly ran off, leaving us there by ourselves. No tour, no guidance, just dumped there. Then, when we came back down, he told us he was taking us back to our hotel - so, no Bo-Kaap or Signal Hill. We could have just booked the tickets ourselves and gotten the free shuttle or an Uber for the same exact experience. We were really confused and messaged the tour operator, who admitted that they had another group on the mountain who needed to be taken back - so I guess that's why Samuel was driving so recklessly and abandoned us. Then, Samuel claimed we'd asked to be taken back to our hotel instead of going on the rest of the tour because we were tired - a total lie. HYM then offered us a 75% refund - but only for 2/3 of us, for some reason? When I asked for the refund for all of us, or at least a refund minus the cost of the cable car tickets, they refused and stopped responding. I'm now appealing with Viator and my credit card company. This company is shady, dishonest, and completely unwilling to provide the experience they promise. I can't imagine why there are any good reviews - perhaps they're fake? Don't fall for it; book elsewhere or risk being ripped off like we were. You've been warned.
Dear Jayni, Thank you for sharing your feedback. We would like to clarify that the tour was offered as described. You specifically chose the Fast-Track Table Mountain tickets, which are more expensive, because you did not want to wait in the standard queue of approximately two hours. These tickets ensured you could go straight up without delay. As a gesture of goodwill, we offered you a partial refund of $160 USD, which is a quarter of the total amount paid for three guests. In addition, we also offered you the opportunity to complete the remaining portion of the tour (including the Signal Hill drive) at a later stage. Please note that the Viator platform thoroughly checks all reviews to ensure they are genuine and reflect verified experiences from real travelers. We truly regret that your experience did not meet your expectations, but we did make every effort to accommodate and resolve your concerns fairly. Kind regards, HYM Cape Tours Team
🚨 SCAM WARNING 🚨 We booked a tour for three people for $159 USD each that was supposed to include Table Mountain, Bo-Kaap, and Signal Hill. Our guide, Samuel, barely spoke to us while recklessly driving us to Table Mountain. He messaged us screenshotted cable car tickets, took us up, and then just... ditched us. No guided tour, no commentary, nothing. Just left us there on our own. When we came back down, Samuel told us we were being taken back to the hotel. The rest of the tour was simply skipped without notice. When we contacted the company, they told us that they had another group on the mountain who needed to be taken home - so I guess that's why Samuel was driving so recklessly and ran off so quickly. Then, Samuel claimed we'd asked to be taken back to our hotel instead of going on the rest of the tour because we were tired - a complete lie. The company eventually offered a 75% refund, but only for 2 out of the 3 of us, with no reason why. When I asked for the 75% refund for all of us, they stopped responding entirely. We’re now escalating the issue with Viator and our credit card companies. ⚠️ Do not trust HYM Cape Tours. They're dishonest, unprofessional, and clearly not interested in delivering the "hassle-free" experience they promise. I can't imagine why there are any good reviews - perhaps they're fake? Save yourself the stress and disappointment and book elsewhere.
Dear client, As mentioned in our previous response to your earlier review, we would like to once again clarify the details of your booking. The tour was provided exactly as described in the listing. You specifically selected Fast-Track Table Mountain tickets, which are more expensive, because you preferred not to wait in the standard queue of approximately two hours. Please note that Fast-Track tickets carry a higher cost, and as a gesture of goodwill, we offered you a refund of $160 USD — a quarter of the total amount you paid for three guests. Additionally, we offered you the opportunity to complete the portion of the tour you felt was missed, such as the optional drive (without stops) to Signal Hill. We also wish to assure you that Viator independently verifies all reviews, and they are not fake. We regret that you remain dissatisfied, but we made every effort to resolve this matter in good faith and to ensure a fair outcome for all parties.
Communication before the tour was excellent. I got picked up in time from the hotel. Ivan my tour guide was exceptionally personable and knowledge about Cape Town and its rich history. He provided a wonderful tour of Table mountain with lots of interesting information about Table mountain and surrounding sights including Lions head, Devils peak and signal hill. We also went through Signal hill and Bo-Kaap. An overall wonderful experience. So glad I took the tour. A+

明るく陽気で易しい英語を話すガイドのイヴァン35歳。WhatsAppで連絡とりながら安心のお迎え、出会い。 俺たち夫婦だけだったので、4時間くらい専属ガイドとして付き合ってくれた。 テーブルマウンテンのツアーだと思ってたら、「その後どこ行くかい！？」なんて、スズキの乗用車でsignal hill などガイドしてくれた。「船の酒が高いので安い酒買いたいんだ」と頼んだら「OK,おれも家飲みのワイン買うから行こうぜ！」みたいな感じで日本にもあるような大量酒専門店に連れて行って貰えた。そこで船の1/3の値段でブランデーを3本買えた。大成功。 彼の会う人はみんな「ブラザー」。「母は違うけど兄弟なんだ！」なんて陽気に顔見知りに挨拶してた。見習いたいね。 彼のおかげで楽しい1日だった。 最後に車を降りて、5分後に車内に忘れ物した事に気づき、WhatsAppで連絡したらすぐ戻ってきてくれ事なきを得た。「謝るな、俺が確認しなかったのが悪い」なんて、クールだった。 ありがとう、楽しかったよイヴァン！ Ivan, a 35-year-old guide who speaks bright, cheerful and easy English. Welcome and meet people with peace of mind while contacting us on WhatsApp. It was just me and my wife、so he accompanied us as an exclusive guide for about 4 hours. I thought it was only a table mountain tour, but "Where are you going after that!?" What, he guided me to signal hill in a Suzuki passenger car. The ship's alcohol is expensive, so I want to buy cheap whisky" I asked, "OK, I'll buy wine to drink at home, so let's go!" I was taken to a large-volume liquor specialty store like in Japan. So I was able to buy 3 bottles of brandy for 1/3 of the price of the ship. Great success. Everyone he meets is "Brother". “My mother is different, but I'm a brother! “ How cheerfully he greeted acquaintances. I want to learn from you. Thanks to him, it was a very fun day. Finally, when I got out of the car, I realized that I had left something in the car 5 minutes later, and when I contacted him on WhatsApp, he came back immediately and got nothing. “Don't apologize, it's my fault that I didn't check it," it was cool. Thank you, it was very fun, Ivan!
