What makes this tour unique as a private excursion it can be customized as you like.

In spring spectacular flora and abundant bird-life are one of the many highlights as well as Whale watching. The Cape of Good Hope hike take you South toward Cape Point and Cape of Good Hope.

Patrick was a fantastic guide!

5.00I did a full day solo tour yesterday with Patrick, and it was an excellent decision to book with him! He was an excellent guide, very personable and a wealth of interesting information to share. He was able to customize my trip to include a long hike in the Cape peninsula followed by a visit to the Kirstenbosch gardens. I couldn’t recommend him highly enough!
THE BEST DAY EVER

5.00Cape Escape Tours has to be the best tour you could ever be on. Patrick makes your day. On timepick up, polite, knowledgeable, great driver. understands the client, responds to any request, flexible. Full day tour to the cape of good hope with a great hike to the lighthouse. Had ample time for shopping and lunch. A wonderful stop @ Boulders Beach to visit penguins and a love at first site to see Simons Town. Was sad to leave at the end of the day. Any tour would be great but I’d say full days are the greatest. Going back to Cape Town I’d book everyday with him. Thank you Patrick for being amazing keep on being you as you are simply the best.
The best experience all the way around.

5.00If you love to hike new places this is one to experience in Cape Town. Patrick of Cape Town Tours was knowledgeable of the history, the wildlife and flora and fauna of this unique area. As we went by areas he was sure to point out areas of interest and explained throughly. The hike was a challenge for this elder hiker but Patrick was patient and the to assist when needed. If ever I return to Cape Town I will definitely book another tour!
Highly recommend this company

5.00What an excellent day with excellent company. We were collected by Patrick on time at 730am, we went mountain biking for 3 hours with Rafik before heading south to the Cape of Good Hope. It was just wonderful. Highlight of our holiday. Patrick is lovely, he allowed us bike more than planned and suggested more biking options for us. The scenery is stunning and we highly recommend using Patrick and his company Cape Escape.
Great experience with great organisation
