5.00We had a great time with Bizo as our guide. He explained everything in detail from the history of the penguins, areas that we were passing through and gave us time to take photos and just appreciate the beauty of mother nature. He knew everyone by name in our tour group. This showed me how dedicated he is to his craft!!! 👌
Informative and fun!

5.00We had an amazing day exploring Cape Town with our guide, Nuria! She brought us to so many beautiful and iconic places — from the Penguin Watch, Cape of Good Hope, and lighthouse, to the colourful Bo-Kaap houses and scenic Hout Bay. Nuria was incredibly informative, sharing lots of history, culture, and interesting facts along the way that made each stop come alive. Her passion for Cape Town truly shines through, and she made the experience both educational and fun. Highly recommended for anyone wanting to discover the best of Cape Town with a knowledgeable and engaging guide!

5.00We had an incredible day on our Boulders Beach Penguin Colony and Chapman’s Peak Drive tour with Armando. He’s truly one of the best tour guides we’ve ever had — funny, friendly, and so knowledgeable. Armando explained everything clearly, made us laugh along the way, and was very accommodating to everyone’s needs. We could understand him easily, and he made the whole experience so enjoyable and stress-free. The views along Chapman’s Peak were breathtaking, and seeing the penguins up close at Boulders Beach was unforgettable. Armando made it all even more special. Highly recommend this tour and especially Armando! If you can, request him — you won’t be disappointed!

5.00⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 5/5 — Fantastic Boulders Beach & Penguins Tour with Armando! We did the Boulders Beach Penguin Colony and Chapman’s Peak tour today, and our guide Armando was absolutely fantastic! He’s easily one of the best tour guides we’ve ever had, and we’ve been on many tours around the world. Armando was funny, friendly, and incredibly knowledgeable. He explained everything so clearly and made the whole trip enjoyable and easy to follow. He was also very accommodating — always making sure we were comfortable and had enough time at each stop. The views along Chapman’s Peak were stunning, and visiting the penguin colony at Boulders Beach was unforgettable. Armando’s stories and humor made the experience even more special. We couldn’t recommend him more highly — if you’re lucky enough to get Armando as your guide, you’re in for a wonderful day!

5.00Great tour! Lovely drive to the beach with some beautiful views and photo stops along the way. The penguin colony was so fun with the highlight being the two hours we had to just explore the beach. The beach alone was gorgeous and by climbing over a few rocks, you could get to a section where you could get up close to the penguins. It was amazing! Driver was extremely knowledgable and kept us on time but was flexible as well. Overall fantastic experience!
