We had a memorable and very enjoyable hike with our excellent hike guide, Brett. Besides being knowledgeable of Cape nature and hikes, he also brewed us fresh coffee on the top. It was truly a lovely experience. ✨️✨️✨️✨️✨️

My wife and I had an amazing experience hiking Lion’s Head Mountain with Johan October. He was very knowledgeable about the plants and animals, and the mountain itself. He seems to know every rock on the treacherous climb, which made us feel very comfortable and safe in his presence - thanks Johan!

We adjusted our route due to weather and cable car access for descent. Lauren and Geoff were very knowledgeable of all the different routes of Table Mountain and put us at ease as we changed course. Geoff is an avid botanist and great to learn about all the local flora and fauna.
You will not regret calling Mother City Hikers

Definitely one of those trips one could do by oneself but hiking with Johan with Mother City was 1000 times better. Not only did we get detailed information about the area’s history and politics but he was extremely knowledgeable about the local flora and fauna. This morning I was talking to someone going to Cape Town and I told him to contact Johan immediately

Spent a great day hiking with Johan. We hiked at a comfortable pace which allowed him to point out a seemingly endless number of plants and birds. His love of the mountain and knowledge of its history and people added so much to the hike. If we had hiked on our own we would have seen some lovely views but missed a world of hidden treasures
So much fun! Thank you, Yvette!

My SIL and I hiked up Table Mountain with Yvette. It was a blast! Yvette was wonderful. She picked us up at the hotel and had everything we might need including hats, jackets, water, snacks, first aid kit. We learned a lot about Table Mountain and Cape Town and felt so accomplished when we made it to the top.

Yvette was fantastic! She tailored our hike around the weather, picked the best route which included a beautiful waterfall, and kept us engaged with her knowledge. Ending in the botanical gardens was the cherry on top!
An unforgettable day hiking with an extraordinary guide.

Yvette was an amazing guide! She adjusted our start time to dodge the rain, chose the perfect route, & shared so much knowledge along the way. Ending in the botanical gardens was unforgettable. An absolute delight from start to finish. What makes Yvette even more inspiring is her own journey.
Fantastic view and guide

Yvette was amazing guide and took care of everything. The gear was ready to go for all elements, she was incredibly knowledgable on of the environment around us, and scenic spots along the way were the best. Definitely would go on another hike if I'm back in Cape Town.
