We had a wonderful time visiting wine farms in Paarl and Stellenbosch. I had originally booked a group tour with a friend but we ended up being the only ones on the tour. Adriaan (the owner) was fantastic in coordinating the tour and making everything happen although he was out of town. Terrific costumer service! Lourens who was our guide for the day was amazing. The pick up/drop off at the hotel was good, the wine farms and tastings were great. We also had a fantastic lunch! All in all 5 star day and we highly recommend this wine tour to others! Many thanks and big smiles from, Marte and Ida from Norway

A few years ago my family and I were looking for someone to help us plan our South African holiday and we discovered Cape Convoy in Trip Advisor. After Rob helpfully answered our questions we booked the Garden Route tour and it was a great decision. We all had a wonderful time, the kids lived Rob and the accommodation was well located. Rob also took us to the Cape of Good Hope and we loved the Penquins. If you're looking for a wonderful tour with a great guy then your search is over! Thanks Rob

Absolute highlight of our trip! We had a fantastic time on the Whale Whisperer boat and all staff made this an unforgettable experience! This trip was a wedding present for our friends who just got married a few days before. We were welcomed by friendly staff when we arrived at the restaurant and then given an interesting intro into the day. After that we walked over to the marina and boarded the boat with the skipper, marine biologist and an animal spotter. We were quickly rewarded with spotting a large group of bottlenose dolphins, then penguins, seals and a couple of sharks. Unfortunately no whales but the Southern Right migrated already. All staff cared for us perfectly throughout the trip and made us feel very welcome. We would recommend this to everyone, great for all ages.

I was put on a bus with teenagers aging 15-19. They were shouting and screaming the entire way n throwing water at each other. Me and my sister got soaked wet. And when I asked them to stop they called me “LOCA” and almost got physical with me with the bus driver watching. At the hostel, I couldn’t sleep for 3 consecutive nights because of how noisy they were. I spoke to the bus driver and he just dismissed me. His excuse was it’s communal living and I had to put up with the drunk screams till 3 am every night. The tour at the safari was meant to be one hour and ended as a 45 min tour of seeing nothing. The bus driver kept on pushing and embarrassing us to buy food and drinks that we didn’t need from the restaurants and cafes to get his commission which made us extremely uncomfortable. The hostel was dirty. The entire experience unpleasant if u r anything above 30, it’s not the right place for u. When we came back, we complained to the office on long street. Again, they were dismissive and didn’t even bother to apologize.
