One of the greatest things to appreciate is a sunset. It happens every night but is not always visible. This one was average, nobodys fault but our experience was not ideal. Would do again though (o.

A very disappointing experience with our tour being cancelled the day prior due to over subscription. Avoid if you actually want to enjoy a hassle free experience during your Cape Town stay. There are plenty of other options available that do not let you down like this company.

They advertise different boats and change on the last moment with less placement for spaces in the sun (the reason we booked). We think it’s misleading as the pictures don’t look like The Boat that was offered and when you book you don’t know what boat you get.

A very small boat with about 30 passengers, but the crew did their very best to make the experience memorable. Great music and friendly atmosphere, a great early evening experience
