We hiked with Pietro today and had a marvelous time. I was the slow one in the group and he made sure I wasn't left behind but also went along ahead with the quicker hikers in the group and shared a lot about South Africa and Cape Town with them while they waited. We moved at our own pace and... More

Absolutely fabulous day hiking up table mountain with our guide Margaret. She was very motivational and a wealth of knowledge about the flora and fauna on the mountain. Well worth the tour price and views were spectacular. I under estimated the fitness required for the climb but Margaret was an experienced walker and had snacks and water for when you... More

Margaret took our group of 5 up table mountain, stopping regularly at points of interest and viewpoints. Margaret has clear experience and whilst the walk is strenuous enough to be a challenge, we never felt like we were being pushed too hard and were relaxed enough to be able to enjoy the experience. I would say that an experienced guide... More

We're a couple of 50+ reasonably fit (or so we thought before we hit Table Mountain!) hikers. However a guide is indispensible for first-time climbers up the mountain. Margaret guided us up from Camp's Bay on a day-long hike. It started with a 700 meter vertical climb. Nothing technical, you just need the stamina to get there. She's thoroughly knowledgeable...

Margaret is one of these guides that walk the extra mile. She is not only a very friendly,extremely)fit and knowledgable guide but also has a good sense of humour which helps when one has to climb up the table mountain which takes about 3h30 min if you hike reasonably fast. I really enjoyed having Margaret as guide who also organised... More

My wife and self enjoyed a great walk with Margaret as our guide on a half day walk around the top of Table Mountain. Margaret picked us up at the agreed time (7.30am). Her knowledge of the mountain, surrounding views, flora and wildlife made the walk as if we did it indepently we would have lost out on a lot... More

We spent a thoroughly enjoyable 5 hours climbing skeleton gorge, traversing the mountain top and walking down the front face. Margaret our guide was great - knowledgeable, fit and respectful. Our day on the mountain was a highlight of our Cape Town stay. Do it!

The day we went up was awful - driving rain and strong winds. This meant we could not walk on the Plateau - however, Margaret was an excellent guide and very knowledgeable. As a result we still did a great climb up the Gorge and did a lovely ridge walk as well. Over 4 hours of great walking ! This... More

We spend 4 days in Cape Town and due to wind the cable car was closed every day. We were therefore very happy that we have booked Margaret as a guide to walk up the Table Mountain. Also you see so much more. If you are ok fit the walk is quite easy but I will definitely recommend taking the... More

The table mountain is one of the biggest atractions in Cape town. I really recommend everyone to do the walk with Margaret. It is a magnificent place to enjoy the nature and great views.
