Itvwas well done, very informative and both guides did a super job describing their experiences and that of their families. Having a former political prisoner speak to us was moving and the first phase guide, showing her grandfathers passbook really brought it home to me. One thing I noticed was a lack of signage at the entrance after the taxi drop off. I happened to run into one if your guides so finally found the starting point

Hi I found the guided tour unforgettable and a must do when in Cape Town. A great history lesson. Personal stories from former inmates was humbling and made the experience even more real. Sad that this history happened at all. From a tourist from NZ

If you are in Cape Town this tour is a must. We saw a whale on the journey out, penguins on the island but it was the guides who really make this tour. Their knowledge and experience are told from the heart - it's an incredibly moving experience.

This was a great trip highlighting the dark past of South Africa. The guides were so knowledgeable and it was important to hear the backstory of the island. Would recommend.

Having the history related by those your occupied the prison is so authentic, it provided me with full visibility and emotion over what happened during that period.

If you do nothing else in Cape Town do this, the testimony of the ex prisoners is very moving and it's impossible to comprehend what they went through.

Sail from Cape Town to Robben Island on a half day trip that combines a scenic ferry ride, prison museum visit, and island bus tour in one ticket.

Benefit from skip the line entry and a moving guided tour led by a former political prisoner, with live commentary on the boat and island bus.

Visit the maximum security prison and museum, walk through former inmate cells and yards, and hear firsthand accounts of life under apartheid.

Board a guided bus for a narrated loop around Robben Island, taking in key landmarks, memorials, and sweeping views across Table Bay.

Upgrade your experience by adding hotel pickup from select Cape Town accommodations, so you reach the V&A Waterfront gateway relaxed and on time.
