TOTAL BAIT AND SWITCH SCAM!!!!
Total Bait and Switch! Lame! Every Shark Tour like this one in Capetown they take you to Gansbaai. Every tour picture to sell it shows Massive Great Whites on the ad. Also, nothing is private about any tour. Just the drive there with an Uber driver. They say private, but that's what you get. The dive is packed with people. When you arrive the town looks like a Great White Museum. Great White statues, and Every street and hotel is named something around Great Whites. Every picture in every building including tour operators shows Whites. All boats say WHITE TOURS on the side of them. You get the picture. Before you go out there is a safety briefing. They say "after this dive you will be a Great White Ambassador" they get you all excited showing videos of huge Great Whites, etc. Then at the end they say "unfortunately we can't guarantee sightings as it's nature" "what you will see is Copper Sharks, and UNFORTUNATELY WE HAVEN'T SEEN A GREAT WHITE HERE IN ALMOST 5 YEARS" I mean what a joke. We live in Florida. We see different sharks all the time. If your looking to see Whites, you won't. P.s. This tour operator is very unresponsive after booking. We tried to ask questions about what to bring, and what's provided. Zero responses! FYI. If you do go the tour provides everything you need, towels, snacks, jackets, wet suits, etc.
Response from the operator: Thank you for your review however it was unfortunate that you could not see the Great Whites. If you look at title of this tour there is nothing private about it and we are not sure where you got the idea that this was a private tour. If you wanted a private boat tour that would have been 10 times what you have paid. We receive 10 or so bookings per day and you know what, you happen to be the only one who has complained.

Why this scores 49
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Great White Shark Diving experience.: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Cape Town.
How much does Great White Shark Diving experience. cost?
+
Prices start at $472 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 Great White Shark Diving experience. take?
+
Plan for about 5 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 Great White Shark Diving experience. worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 49 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.3/5 across 6 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 Great White Shark Diving experience.?
+
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 Great White Shark Diving experience. suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 5-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Great White Shark Diving experience.?
+
Around 2 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 5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Great White Shark Diving experience. 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 Town: Lion's Head Sunrise/Sunset Hike, Ocean Wildlife Encounter in Cape Town, Private Full Day Stellenbosch Wine Tour with Pick Up and Drop Off. 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.
