Our guide Danson made this trip one to remember! From start to finish Danson was informative, entertaining and went above and beyond to ensure we had the best day. We felt his knowledge of the history, culture and heritage of South Africa, good and not so good were shared with us. We certainly hit the jackpot when Danson turned up to take us out for the day exploring in, around and out of Cale Town. Thank you for an amazing day.

This was an amazing experience. Had the honor to enjoy this private tour of the three locations specified on the title and they were all great to visit. Cape of good hope being the top attraction of the entire tour. The hike up to the lighthouse is worth every drop of sweat and steps you take up. All I can say it’s a breath taking view from the top. I can go on and on about how magnificent this tour was, but if you’re looking for private time with a tour guide this is it. I had the pleasure of it being led by Jossie, who was nothing short of great with explanations and explaining things. She even made a slight adjustment to the itinerary so we were able to catch the amazing sunset Capetown has to offer. Once again you will not be disappointed!

We took a Penninula Tour with Xochitle Botma, who was absolutely amazing the entire trip. She brought the peninsula to life for us, providing information and insights about every stop. The vehicle itself was spacious and immaculate, the tour stops were well thought out, and the pace was wonderful - enough time for pictures and no wasted time. We learned so much! I could not recommend this tour, with Xochilte, enough. So very grateful to have had this experience. Thank you, Xochilte!!!

We just finished our tour to the Cape of Good Hope with Xochitle from Cape Archives. What a great time we had! What initially caught our eye was a competitive price along with included admissions to the parks. The booking process was very easy with confirmation both via WhatsApp and email. Our guide, Xochitle arrived early to our hotel in a spotless van that was in excellent condition and very comfortable. The itinerary was just about perfect to make a loop of the Cape in an unhurried and relaxing manner. We saw all of the major western beach areas. We made a rest stop in at a small shopping center that consisted of small cafes, an organic food store and an incredible bakery. After our break, we went to the Cape of Good Hope both at the beach and up top at the lighthouse. We were given plenty of time to walk around and explore the area. We never felt rushed. Following the Cape, we stopped for lunch at a beach restaurant . Our reservation was prearranged and we were given a corner table overlooking the water. The food was good as was the service. This was really nice. Finally, we made our way into the penguin reserve and once again had enough time to explore and take photos at our leisure. Xochitle was incredibly hospitable and provided a great balance of information about the area without it being overwhelming. We would most definitely recommend Xóchitle and Cape Archives to anyone visiting the Cape Town area.

Our guide was Kevin, who was very knowledgeable and made our day both informative and enjoyable. He was extremely flexible to suit our needs as well as making sure we fitted everything in that we had planned in the day.

Josie was an incredible tour guide and knew so much about Cape Town and the surrounding areas. She was extremely flexible with what we wanted to do and let us explore each attraction at our own pace. This is an amazing way to spend a day and see the coast line. We had a little extra time at the end of the day and Josie took us out of her way for one more attraction and even drove us to the airport to catch a flight! Thank you Josie you were the best!!!

Kevin Basseko was a lovely guide, who told us a lot about the history of South Africa that is associated with the tour. He was friendly, very open and in a constant good mood. We really enjoyed our day with him and can recommend him to the fullest.

Kelvin was by far the best tour guide we have ever had. He was so knowledgeable, friendly and patient with us. If you are coming to Cape Town on holidays looking for a trip full of multiple places with top service this is the company to go with. My wife and I could recommend the company any higher. It’s a must book if you are looking to check off a lot in half a day. I would also consider the private package as it really felt special for us. Thanks again to Kelvin for the unbelievable experience.

Kelvin was a great private tour guide. We had already seen a couple sights so he adapted our tour accordingly as well as working around a lot of road closures due to the President's speech in Cape Town. Not only was he a font of knowledge about the main tour attractions, he spotted wild animals for us and knew just where to take the best photos (and took many of us so we didn't end up with just selfies). We were all day with him and he provided info, appropriate to our knowledge and interests, all along the way. We really enjoyed spending the day with him. as a person. At each stop we didn't feel rushed but we were able to clearly take the time we wanted to enjoy at our leisure. We stopped for coffee and restrooms and then stopped for lunch at Cape Point. Because we requested a later start to the day, he didn't suggest an alternative location to stop but did offer choices at the Point and our lunch was quite good. I was happy with our communications with the company as I ultimately changed several things about our booking--the date, the pickup location and the time. Furthermore, they gave us good guidance on what we needed to bring as well as alerting me realtime via whatsapp when Kelvin arrived at our hotel for pickup. The vehicle was comfortable, pretty new, clean and stocked with water and maps for our use. Although we only had two of us, it was a mini van and would have been comfortable for a group of 4 or 5. Earlier in our trip we had a rental car but elected to do this tour instead of driving ourselves and we were so happy with that choice. We were able to see so much more, understand the area and not struggle with navigating especially when there were road closures. This was well worth doing!

It was an unforgettable experience. Kevin our tour guide has become more than a friend, he's our family in Cape Town. Not only his knowledge of Cape Town and professionalism is beyond excellent but his kind heart too. Kevin even helped us when the cruise ship left us in Cape Town after being dropped off, not his fault but paperwork issues at check in. He drove us to the airport and made sure we were safe. What a great experience! Thank you friends and see you again!

My friends and I had an incredible day exploring the Southern Cape with Kelvin. He was incredibly friendly and knowledgeable about everything we saw. By the end of the day we had seen the famous “Little Three” - Wild Ostrich, Baboon and Cape Penguins. Great day!

Fantastic private sightseeing, possibility to experience all your favourite attractions, in your own schedule. Our guide Kelvin was awesome, so much of a knowledge which made our day extra special. We'd highly recommend to book Kelvin for your special day.

Booked Cape Archives for 2 day trips- Aquila Safari and Cape of Good Hope. We were accompanied by Rodney and he was simply AMAZING! Informative, detail oriented, kept our young children’s needs in mind with stops and entertainment. He was absolutely fantastic. I booked directly with Cape Archives and had such an excellent experience communicating with Xavier. The whole experience from booking to the end, was excellent and stress free. Definitely recommend Cape Archives for touring needs.
