Best Your Guide of Western Cape
Colins is the best guide in the Western Cape. He is so knowledgeable about wine and he makes the best recommendation for restaurants and activities. We had a great day at the flowers route with him. Great value for money
Response from the operator: Hi, Many thanks for your kind words and feedback! Thanks for joining us and so happy to hear you had a great day. Best, Colin

Perfect Way to See Everything Surrounding Cape Town
We did a cape tour with Tim from Winelands and it was the perfect start to our Cape Town leg of our vacation. Tim was super knowledgeable and took us to all the good spots, including the cutest farm village for a pit stop to get some coffees and snacks and little shops. May had amazing weather, think sunny and 65-75 F and no crowds at Cape of Good Hope. We had the most beautiful lunch at Harbor House that had killer ocean views and super fresh local seafood from the fishing dock next door. Then we saw all the Pengiuns at Boulders Beach. on our way back, Tim even let us stop at both the Kirstenbosch Gardens and took us up to the top of Table Mountain. We literally hit everything we wanted and more!
Response from the operator: Hi, Thanks for your feedback. Delightful to hear you had a great day with Tim. Best, Colin

10/10 - no notes!!!
Where do we even begin?! We visited South Africa for our honeymoon and was lucky enough to have the best tour guide of all time!! Our travel agent arranged for us to have a private tour to see what Cape Town and the coast had to offer... little did we know, we would be making a friend for life! On the day of, Tim was patiently waiting for us in the lobby as we were running late from breakfast. His car was so comfortable and fully stocked with water for us. Tim showed (and educated) us on Cape Town and the surrounding areas in ways we would have never seen ourselves had we opted to rent a car and do it ourselves. We drove Chapmans Peak, stopped for coffee, went to the Cape of Good Hope, saw the penguins at Foxy Beach... and this is just to name a few stops. We stopped for a delicious waterside lunch and then spent the second half of the afternoon exploring as well. We knew our travel agent had booked us another private tour with Winelands Guide when we were spending a few nights in Stellenbosch. We loved Tim so much we requested to have him for that day as well. We were so excited to see him waiting outside for us and to spend another full day with him. Tim continued to educate us about his country as we drove through the rolling hills and made our way to 3 wineries. Tim truly went out of his way to make our honeymoon and my birthday so special... & he takes the best pictures! 10/10 recommend booking with Winelands Guide for getting the best experiences, views, and meals that South Africa has to offer. Thank you for everything, Tim!!!

My wife and I spent our honeymoon in South Africa, and we had the winelands guide for all transfers and tours (full cape peninsula tour and wine tasting tour) Cannot recommend them enough. Very reliable, friendly, safe! Every guide is so friendly and knowledgeable and will make your trip so special and memorable. 10/10 recommend. We can’t wait to go back to visit and hire them again!

Amazing Tours of the Cape Peninsula and the Winelands
Colin and his team are amazing. Everyone we interacted with did an incredible job of sharing interesting facts while still keeping the experiences extremely fun. All drivers are safe, punctual, and fun. My wife and I would (and will!) recommend Winelands Guide to anyone traveling to Cape Town and/or the wine country. One of the best parts of our amazing trip!

Best of the Cape Full Day Private Tour: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Cape Town.
How much does Best of the Cape Full Day Private Tour cost?
+
Prices start at $2659 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Cape Town usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Best of the Cape Full Day Private Tour take?
+
Plan for about 8 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Cape Town is not rushed.
Is Best of the Cape Full Day Private Tour worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 68 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 20 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Cape Town, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Best of the Cape Full Day Private Tour?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Best of the Cape Full Day Private Tour suitable for kids and families?
+
The operator sets a minimum age of 1. Older children generally do well here, and families should factor in the 8-hour running time when deciding.
How far in advance should I book Best of the Cape Full Day Private Tour?
+
Around 7 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Cape Town can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Cape Town and add a light layer if any part of the 8-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Best of the Cape Full Day Private Tour start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Cape Town within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Cape Town?
+
On Outty we rank every Cape Town experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Cape of Good Hope and Boulders Penguins Day Tour from Cape Town, Table Mountain, Boulders Penguins and Cape point Day Tour, Wine Tour: Paarl, Franschhoek & Stellenbosch incl 3 wineries. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Cape Town?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Cape Town?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
