    NEVER book with JO WEBER AGAIN!

    Beware of Jo Weber!!!! If you book a trip or a trip with Jo Weber as a guide, you should pay hell of a visit. We are two friendly married couples and wanted to go on a day trip with Jo Weber in Cape Town in March 2026 and then spend ONE WEEK with him on the Garden Route. Since May 2025 we have been in contact with Jo Weber – via email and Whatsapp. Gradually, the exact itinerary and the day trip – the exact dates in March 2026 were set – had been confirmed by Jo Weber several times and most recently at the turn of 2025/26. And then the hammer!!! We were already on our way to the airport when Jo Weber announced in a Whatsapp that he had made a mistake and wrongly entered the dates in April. So he couldn't take this trip with us. Jo Weber ends his message and contact with us with a lapidary “I’m very sorry about that now”. Hardly anyone will be able to imagine the feelings and thoughts that came up in us. What was going to happen now? We have booked this trip only on the condition that we have a German speaking guide. We have limited command of the English language. However, we carried out the trip anyway. But the bottom line remains: NEVER book with JO WEBER AGAIN!

    Response from the operator: Good day, Thank you for bringing this to our attention. We are very concerned to read about your experience. However, we would like to clarify that the individual mentioned, “Jo Weber,” is not associated with Real Africa Travel Tours, and we have no record of this booking under our company. That said, we take matters like this seriously and would appreciate the opportunity to investigate further and assist where possible. Kindly contact us directly so we can look into this in detail and, if necessary, report the matter to the relevant authorities. You can reach us at: 📧 res@realafricatraveltours.co.za 📞 +27 71 042 3137 We look forward to assisting you. Kind regards, Kelvin J Real Africa Travel Tours

    A city and region to visit.

    Visit the city and surroundings. I used the sightseeing bus to visit the city. I stopped at Houtbay too. Later they took me to walk to Muizenberg and also visit the penguins not having gone through the good hope where I have been for 3 times in other trips made to South Africa.

    Response from the operator: Olá! Thank you for sharing your experience. It sounds like you had a lovely time exploring Cape Town, Hout Bay, Muizenberg, and visiting the penguins. We understand that you skipped Cape of Good Hope this time since you’ve been there before , it’s always nice when guests return to discover new corners of the city. We hope to welcome you again for another beautiful day out in South Africa. Obrigado for choosing to travel with us! Warm regards, Kelvin Jambaya Real Africa Travel Tours

    Table Mountain & Capetown City Tour with Local Tour Guide: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Cape Town.

    How much does Table Mountain & Capetown City Tour with Local Tour Guide cost?

    +

    Prices start at $50 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 Table Mountain & Capetown City Tour with Local Tour Guide 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 Table Mountain & Capetown City Tour with Local Tour Guide worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 58 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (3/5 across 2 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 Table Mountain & Capetown City Tour with Local Tour Guide?

    +

    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 Table Mountain & Capetown City Tour with Local Tour Guide suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 8-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Table Mountain & Capetown City Tour with Local Tour Guide?

    +

    Around 1 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 Table Mountain & Capetown City Tour with Local Tour Guide 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, Hike Table Mountain or Lions Head in Cape Town Like a Local, Cape Point and Boulder's Penguins Full Day Tour. 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.

    What is included in Table Mountain & Capetown City Tour with Local Tour Guide?

    +

    Included: Certified & Local Tour Guide; In-vehicle air conditioning; Castle of Good Hope entry fee; Hotel Pick up and Drop off; and District Six Museum entry fee. Not included: Table Mountain cable car Entry fees (ZAR 490.00 Per Adult, ZAR 230.00 Per Child); Food and drinks fees; and Gratuities (Optional ).

    Does Table Mountain & Capetown City Tour with Local Tour Guide include hotel pickup?

    +

    What languages is Table Mountain & Capetown City Tour with Local Tour Guide offered in?

    +

    Will I get instant confirmation and a mobile ticket for Table Mountain & Capetown City Tour with Local Tour Guide?

    +

    Is Table Mountain & Capetown City Tour with Local Tour Guide wheelchair or stroller accessible?

    +
