We did the full day Cape Tour and the Full tour of winelands (Stellenbosch, Franschouk etc.) with Mac and we had a great time. Mac is a great guide. This is truly a personalized and private experience. Mac was great from the moment that I contacted him via email. I was able to seamlessly work with him over email to plan out both of our tours. He was very patient with my multiple questions and he worked with us to craft an itinerary based on what we wanted to see. He even suggested and recommended restaurants and answered other questions unrelated to our tours.
On the days of the tours, Mac was always punctual, profiession but also very personable. He was flexible and accomodating to all of our requests and also provide some great suggestions. Mac was very knowledgeable and personable. We had a great time listening to all the history and all the anecdotes. He always had us laughing and we felt like we were being shown around by a family member/friend. He also added multiple personal touches especially organized a very romantic lunch with an unbelievable view at a very nice restaurant/wine estate (Which is very difficult to get reservation). My wife and I definetely appreciated and enjoyed that very much
The tours themselves are very carefully crafted and it is a great way to cover a lot of the major attractions. I would highly recommend Mac for any tours. He comes with a lot of experience, knowledge and a lot of personality. You will get a very personal/bespoke experience. You will not be dissappointed.

Good Morning and thank you very much for the very kind words.
It was a pleasure to be involved in your honeymoon and fabulous that the Romantic side , restaurants and such all worked so well during your stay.
Very different situation with Lockdown just now so I am so happy that you visited just prior to our Lockdown.
The days were lovely and exploring the Winelands and Cape Point with you both were both very special days.
I hope you return and it shall be a pleasure to offer even more attractions for you to see.
In the meantime Stay Home Safe

Mac was an absolute delight. With Mac you get it all in one package- history, native animals sighting and information, beautiful scenery, excellent food and a delightful wine tasting. He knows what highlights to hit and where the best photo spots are. His knowledge about the history of the area was worth at least 2 or 3 museum visits all wrapped in one! Plus, he's funny and entertaining. I can't recommend him strongly enough. Thanks, Mac!

My favourite part of the tour by far was Mac himself. He was so kind, gentle, accommodating, flexible, interesting, informative and funny.
We booked him for 2 full day custom tours for our group of 4 - one day driving along Cape Point and the Peninsula and the other in the heart of Cape Town including Signal Hill and the BoKaap before swinging over to Stellenbosch for some wine tasting. Mac even dropped off our group with our bags at the airport at the end of the day.

Thank you very much for the kind words it is always lovely to hear that I have managed to make others enjoy some of the wonderful attractions in our beautiful country. Even with a bit of weather on the way to Stellenbosch it was lovely not to dampen your enthusiasm and it was lovely to tailor make your day ending at our international airport after 2 great days

I had 3 full day tours with Mac - Cape of Good Hope plus penguins, Winelands and Cape Town itself including Table Mountain. Mac is very very knowledgeable person, real gentleman and respects your own private space, which I really appreciated. Not constantly talking or overloading you with questions, so you have chance also simply enjoy views and digest all new info.
He is very flexible, always on time, lives in the center of Cape Town, which also gives him big plus as he can be easily reached out for spontaneous ideas ;)
Thank you Mac for taking good care of me and my daughter Klara
Having some springbok shot on your good health ;)
Cheers

Thank you very much indeed Indra it was lovely spending a fabulous time with you and Klara and I was very grateful for my very good Colleague Jacqui Braunlich from Cape by Design Tours who referred me to you.
It was a pleasure showing you around our beautiful part of the world and wonderful that we could see as much as we did,
Be careful the Springbok shooters become compulsive , they are indeed very nice and I am glad you tried them
Cheers and travel safely

Thank you for the very kind words. It was a great pleasure to tour with you guys and I am glad that you enjoyed the way we arranged your days in Cape Town. Also my Luck that I could spend an extra couple of days entertaining while the 3 of you visited the Victoria Falls.
I hope you all make it back to this part of the world and even a bit further to the Magnificent Garden Route or Wildlife in the Kruger Park.

Amazing tour with Mac, excellent service from the moment he picked us up at airport. Spend a whole day in Peninsula tour which he customized for us including Cape of good hope, Ostrich farm, Penguin beach, lovely lunch with a view, visiting the beach towns and sharing history and insight of this lovely city. Also recommended an amazing restaurant on the waterfront called Baia which we loved. We felt safe and treated like family. Highly recommend Mac for autjing you need in Capetown.

Our family of 4 had a lovely full day trip around the Cape Peninsula with Mac. He was able to fit quite a lot into one day while we still felt like we were able to appreciate each stop! Mac’s van is quite comfortable and he is very affable and knowledgeable about the history, geology, and plants and animals of the Western Cape. He tied his tour into his own experiences as a long time SA resident, which was interesting to hear. When we reached out to inquire about his tours he gave us an outline of a typical Cape Peninsula tour and modified it based on our interests - all very smooth to book. Along the tour, he presented us with options and was good natured and flexible when we wanted to spend more time somewhere. Thank you Mac for showing us a great time!

Thank you very much for the very kind words. It was indeed a pleasure to spend time with your lovely family and wonderful to assist with showing you some of the amazing locations here in and around Cape Town. There is so much more to discover in the Western Cape which we shall keep for your next visit. I hope you enjoyed the Greater Kruger Park and have many great sighting Pics of animals and of course birds.

We had a really great experience with Mac and our driver Faz!
Mac was very thorough when we were planning our itinerary and managed to squeeze in everything (and more) we wanted to do over 3 days including arranging a game drive at the Aquila Reserve. He took us up the Table Mountain, some vineyards, ALL the coves and view points, penguin and seal colonies and a lot more! He was very engaging and also gave some great restaurant recommendations.
We travelled with 2 elderly on wheelchairs and were very well taken care of! Definitely recommend booking with Mac when you’re in town!
Thanks Mac!

Cape Tours with Mac was a wonderful fun filled day. Mac was punctual, knowledgeable, informative, easy going and funny. Although the weather was not cooperative on the day of our tour, Mac managed to take us on a nine hour adventure of the Cape Peninsula. It was a wonderful day that our family will always remember. I highly recommend Cape Tours with Mac.

I hope we meet again during your travels and for now Travel Safely

It is very unfortunate that some people have fallen prey to this false shark cage diving company. I use a company which has never let my clients down and they have a 100% safety record.

We travelled with Mac on 2 day trips around the Cape area (9 family members in total including grandparents and children). He was a charming, knowledgeable and reputable tour operator. We would tour again with him and highly recommend him as a guide. He took into account all our personal needs and wants and tailored our day trips specifically for us. He was also a very good photographer and we did call on his services several times to take our family photos on multiple cameras! He is very relaxed and aims to please his clients. We felt like he was part of the family.
