The bus is an excellent way to see Cape Town. We jumped on at the cable way and stopped of in Camps Bay. The driver was kind enough to stop at various places for photos. We ended at the V & A Waterfront. I would definitely recommend this to everyone.

Great way to explore Cape Town. Tour information is both interesting and entertaining. We felt very safe and relaxed while knowing our logistical needs were easy to access while we visited different landmarks in Cape Town, including Table Mountain

This was a great way to experience Cape Town. The optional walking tour was a huge bonus. The narrative that accompanies the bus drive is very informative, even our friend, who is a South African native and spent a lot of time in Cape Town, learned things she didn't know on this tour.
