Our Cape Point tour was enjoyable and informative. Our guide Diana was fun and very knowledgeable and we had a great day to enjoy the views and wildlife. Overall I think some other tours we took on our trip may have offered a more bang for the buck. Two excursions during the trip to see the harbor fur seals and African Penguins were optional and we were required to pay small additional fees (this info was shared at scheduling). The lunch was adequate but nothing special.
Most of our fellow travelors were younger than us (at 60 and 65). I was fine with that but in the end, I think we might have enjoyed the company of a more mature crowd. This is not a criticism of the tour company, just info for future travelors.

Solo
I travelled solo and didn’t want to rent a car to drive to Cape of Good Hope by myself. The pace was unhurried and Mike, our guide, was friendly and approachable, pointed out the various areas along the way, and answered all questions with a solid knowledge base. Asanda was a very safe driver, and was flexible with the drop off at the end (took some of us to the Market next to the waterfront which only runs Wednesday nights). The morning snack and lunch were more than adequate; no one needed to purchase lunch at the lighthouse. Snack consisted of muffins, yogurt, fresh fruits, juices, and there was enough that you could have seconds and thirds if you wanted. Lunch was a casual buffet, with an assortment of artisan rolls with variety of things to make sandwiches (not cheap sliced white bread type deal), chips with a few dip options (guac, hummus etc), fresh salad, juice, and again, more than enough for folks to eat as much as they wanted. Mike had something for the vegetarian in the group. I certainly couldn’t get a driver for 9 hours, snack and lunch for the price in the US. I did not do the seals, but did do the penguins. The line was long but we were allowed right through while Mike stood in the line with our money. If you can have exact change for the penguins would be helpful if you run into that scenario as well. You can’t touch or interact with them btw (some of my fellows travelers thought they would be able to). You are on a boardwalk behind a railing.

This was a great use of a day out of my 3-day trip to Cape Town, with Diane and Asanda showing us the main highlights of the Cape Peninsula with a lot of enthusiasm, excitement and efficiency. Some of the sea-side driving routes were incredible. The co-ordination of timing was very good in order to ensure we covered everything we had planned to, including accommodating a bit of hiking. Highly recommend.

Such a good tour!!! Exceeded our expectations as we did everything we planned to and saw such beautiful scenery and landscape of Cape Town.
Mike was one of the best tour guides we’ve ever had - so informative and gave us a lot of tips on avoiding tourist traps sincerely - not every tour guide does that. He also went out of his way to help his guests plan the rest of their trips.

We had a good time with Mike and Asanda on 27th Jan 2020. Mike is full of energy taking care of all of us, the bus was full load. The itinerary was very well planned. He is very knowledgeable explaining the history and briefing on what to expect about the places before our each stop. He even took our group photos and emailed to us. The picnic lunch was good and he took special care for our halal need. We like best was the optional tours to visit the Cape Fur seals at Duiker Island and penguin at Boulders Beach. Mike and Asanda also helped to look out for the wildlife while we were at Cape Point Nature Reserve.
The only set back was the bus size. I was seated on 1st row behind the driver closest to the door and there were other 3 passengers on the same row. Only half of my butt got the seat.😟

This tour is a MUST when visiting South Africa. A full day tour filled with beautiful sceneries, tons of animals and an amazing tour guide (Mike). On our first stop, we had the option (highly recommend) to take a boat to see the seals in their natural element, we even saw dolphins swimming with the boat! The second stop was at Boulders Beach to see the penguin colony. All the penguins at the time (went in Feb) were laying eggs, totally adorable. Last stop was at Cape Point and Cape of Good Hope, which is the most south-western point of the African continent. There's a lighthouse to the top. There's a cable car that can take you to the top, but most people choose to take a walk, not bad at all!! Then there is a path along the coast, which is absolutely stunning! Not only was this a beautiful day getting to experience all of this, but our guide Mike gave us so much information about the areas we visited, it really made it all the better.

I had the pleasure of taking the full day tour to the Peninsula with Mike as our guide. The entire trip was well organized with snacks and lunch provided. I would recommend this if you just want to sit back and relax while seeing the peninsula. The hike at the end at the cape of good hope was absolutely breathtaking and by taking the bus you can hike from the light house at the cape point all the way to the cape of good hope and get picked up from there.
It would be cheaper to drive yourself but this is a much more relaxing option and you would still have to pay the toll along the M6 highway and to enter the cape peninsula area (I think 350 rand) so it is well worth taking the tour.

This was a really nice way to see the Cape Peninsula. The small group made it easier to manage the time spent at each location. (No big queues of 50 people for coffee or toilets). The guide, Mike Quillinan and driver, Asanda were both excellent. Asanda was a good careful driver and Mike was a friendly and knowledgable guide. The food supplied for snacks and lunch was very good. A nice selection to suit everyone and plenty of it. I was disappointed not to see the Chapmans Peak driveway but it was closed due to high winds and that was obviously not Mikes fault.
My only slight disappointment was the lack of stops for photo opportunities at some of the key places. Overlooking into Simonstown, some of the mountain back drops and the Cape Flats for instance. I realise that the time schedule is important in such a trip but it was often not possible to take good shots from the window of the moving bus.
Having said that, all in all it was an excellent day out and very good value for money. I will strongly recommend this trip to any of my friends who visit Cape Town in the future.

We really enjoyed our Peninsula Tour with Baz Bus. We chose this because it spent the maximum time on the Peninsula, and included the opportunity to spend more time around Cape Point including a short hike. It fully lived up to our expectations.
The weather wasn't helpful initially as the boat wasn't running to the Seal island because of wind, and Chapman's Peak was also closed for the same reason. But our great guide Mark, and driver Asanda, allowed us some time around the port and we re-routed via False Bay with some lovely views and then the day continued as planned. They prepared a great lunch and we had the right amount of time at all the attractions, and Mark escorted us on the hike at Cape Point making sure that everyone was Ok along the route, and took some pics as well which he sent to us afterwards.
This was a wonderful day and fully lived up to our expectations and would be thoroughly recommended as a Peninsula tour. mark and Asanda even helped us with an early drop off en-route as we were visiting friends out of town in the evening. Perfect.

We had a really enjoyable day out on a double-decker bus, being picked up from Camps Bay, going through Cape Town down to Cape Point on a full day sight-seeing tour.
Our guide was excellent in keeping us entertained with facts and pointing out all the best sights whilst en route.
It was an extremely windy day but it didn't stop us from making the most of our trip, including visiting the lighthouse, hiking around Cape Peninsula, seeing the penguins on Boulders Beach and having photographs taken at the 'bottom of the world'.
We felt really sorry for the driver and guides when the bus broke down on the way back, during rush hour traffic.
To their credit however, we were only waiting a short time before another bus arrived and completed our journey back to Camps Bay.
In the circumstances we were very impressed with this company - well done!

Hello-
I have a few questions.
1. Does this tour include a hike up table mountain?
2. If not, do you offer a table mountain hike? I see mentions about a tour guide by the name of Mike.
3. Do you pick up from the Cape Town Marriott Crystal Towers?
Thanks in advance,
Aaron

Thank you for your interest in our Table Mountain Hike.
We do offer a Table Mountain Guided Hike.
We do not collect passengers from their accommodations for this tour. You would need to meet the guide at the lower cable station and look out for the Kiosk sign on the day of doing the Hike.
Mike is one of our guides yes, He will be doing the Hike on the 18th of October. :)
The hike cost is R295.
Please advise if you would like to make a booking?
