★★★★★Viator review
What a brilliant day.
Karen_A, October 2026
We had a tour around Cape Town and the Cape itself which was fantastic and very good value. A huge thank you to our guide Danson who was really friendly, polite and knowledgeable. Nothing was too much trouble for him and he went the extra mile (literally) which meant we got to see zebras on the beach and baby ostriches in the wild. Danson made a restaurant reservation for us at The Harbour House in Kalk Bay which was gorgeous and he took lots of photos with our phone to make sure we had lots of memories of the day. We would highly recommend this tour and hope you are lucky enough to have Danson as your guide.

Very enjoyable trip with friendly and informative guide and driver
★★★★★Tripadvisor review
Long day but we experienced everything!
tommieg279, October 2026
Overall we really enjoyed the tour. It was a very long day, jam packed with things to do and see. Our guide (didn't catch his name somehow) was very nice and took extra efforts to make sure that we got to see and see everything. We spent only a little time in the smaller highlights like Bo Kaap and more time with penguins and table mountain (which we appreciated). He did a last minute switch to move table mountain to the end of the day which ended up working out very well for us because we got to see sunset and that was stunning. Lunch was included at a delish restaurant. The guide made sure we had all the coffee/drink/snack/restroom stops that we needed and was extremely accommodating to our group. We had some grumpy guests touring in our van with us who didn't seem to enjoy themselves but we made the best of it and had a wonderful time. The biggest complaint we had was that the vans air conditioner didn't seem to be working (or the guide didn't want to use it) because we were in the back of the van the whole day super freaking hot.
★★★★★Tripadvisor review
Nkosi is the best
907devinl, October 2026
Our driver, Nkosi, was super knowledgeable, friendly, and down-to-earth. My wife and I booked a private peninsula tour to have more control over our sightseeing, and he was very accommodating. He seemed to know everyone wherever we went, or at least made friends everywhere we went, all while being professional as a tour guide. He knew how to navigate around any crowd, which saved us a ton of time and headaches around Table Mountain.
Response from the operator · Junior P
Dear Devi, Thank you so much for sharing your wonderful experience with us! We are delighted to hear that you and your wife enjoyed your private Cape Peninsula tour with Nkosi. It is lovely to know that his knowledge, friendly personality, and flexibility helped make your day so enjoyable. We are especially pleased that his experience and ability to navigate the crowds around Table Mountain helped you make the most of your time. We will be sure to share your kind words with Nkosi. Thank you for choosing Cape Archives Tours & Safaris, and we hope to welcome you both back to Cape Town for another memorable adventure! Best regards, Junior
