We had an amazing experience with Cape Coast Explore! Fayzal made our tour truly memorable — he was exceptionally friendly, professional, and courteous. He went above and beyond to ensure we felt safe and comfortable throughout the trip, and our kids absolutely loved him! We’ll definitely be recommending Cape Coast Explore to others and look forward to booking with them again in the future.

Fair dinkum, Cape Coast Explore knocked it out of the park with our whale watching tour in Hermanus. The guide was a legend, and the experience was ripper. We got up close and personal with these majestic creatures, and it was a real highlight of our trip. We had a top-notch adventure in the Southern Cape, look no further than Cape Coast Explore. We'll be raving about this experience for years to come.

I’m forever grateful for this company and Fayical for extreme care and professionalism before, during, and after my tour. I thought I had a reservation at a hotel in Hermanus but did not and was worried about what I was going to do. Thanks to the quick thinking of Fayical, I was able to rebook with another and even better resort to finish out my last two days in Capetown in the Hermanus area. I wish that had been my home base and that I booked this company for all of my driving needs. He was on time and got me to the airport at the end of the trip. The scary part is that the owner of the hotel I thought I had a reservation just suggested he drop me off in the city center at a restaurant for three hours! Again, I feel this extra care makes them stand out because he could have left me to get to his next job or task but he did not.
Great experience
