An excellent day out with Nathan who is a brilliant guide.

Published on Feb, 2025

Being in Cape Town for a few days we needed to make the best use of our time. After some research we decided that the tour that ticked a few of our boxes was the Robben island tour with the cape of good hope and cape point would fit the bill. We decided to use beyond Africa safari tours. Booking was simple and all tickets and instructions provided before we travelled. Nathan our driver for the day picked us up early in a beautiful car and we set off. First stop was the ferry to Robben island, Nathan stayed with us till we boarded the ferry and was there waiting when we returned 4 hours later, if you get a chance to do Robben island it is well worth the time. After that we when for a drive towards penguin beach, on the way he picked a great restaurant overlooking an harbour. Penguin beach was a delight and a must visit. The over to cape of good hope (very windy) for photo opportunity and then cape point. After this we did the drive back to cape town via chapmans peak, absolutely stunning view and then back to the hotel. I have to mention Nathan he was knowledgeable and funny all day and we learnt such a lot from him about the places we visited and also local life and local history. We were sad to say goodbye at the end and when we do visit cape town again it will be our pleasure to use this company again and thier great ambassador Nathan.

Perfect day - especially for those with limited time

An unbelievable experience. Alfani was a brilliant guide, providing fascinating insights and friendly conversation throughout. Such varied experiences, from the emotional visit to Robben Island, the breathtaking Cape of Good Hope and Cape Point and the fantastic Boulders Beach with their penguins. Couldn’t have asked for more from the day.

Prisoners, Penguins and Spectacular Views

Published on Jan, 2024

We started the day at Robben Island which was really enjoyable. The tour of the prison was conducted by a previous inmate and it was so interesting to hear first hand stories. Next stop Boulders Beach and the Penguins. This was great, so many of them, some swimming, some sitting on their eggs and two cute ones holding "hands" walking into the distance. Next stop Cape if Good Hope which offers spectacular views. Lunch at Two Oceans was amazing. Final stop was Cape Point which was a bit of a trek to the top in the heat but we'll worth the effort. The views on the drive to and from the Cape if Good Hope were stunning. A great day out, just be prepared for a long day.

Ross was ace

Published on Jan, 2024

Our tour was ace. Our guide Ross was so knowledgable and made us really ready for our day. He even fitted in Table Mountain as there were only 4 of us on the excursion. Nothing too much trouble and he took our photos and we had the best time of our lives. He explained the atrocities of the appartide and joined in with our discussions. We liked our insight into Robben Island and he made sure we got our ferry.

Cape Town S. Africa tour.

Published on Oct, 2023

Ray was amazing! Our first time to S. Africa and Robben Island ferry was closed because of technical issues (half of our day tour), so he drove us around all the highlights and it was more than we could imagine. He rescheduled our Robben Island tour for the next day on our own. He was very informative, clear and friendly. Highly recommend!
