Fantastic Wineland Tour - We had an one day wineland tour guided by Moira who was our guide during this day.
Che has organized the tailor-made tour in a very personal and professional way.... read more We had an excellent day and thanks to Moira learned a lot about Cape Town itself, its surroundings, the people, the winelands and even South Africa. We thank Wanderer Tours and Moira for an exceptional and perfect day!
9 October 2022I just had a day for my leisure tour in Cape Town and to my good fortune I contacted Che for cape point tour. Everything was amazing - one of... read more the best experiences I had. Our travel guide Moira is one of the most knowledgeable and amazing persons I have ever come across. She gave us a great insight into the city and show us breathtaking sights. Chapman's peak and Boulders penguins colony are not to be missed. A big shout out to Che for managing and planning the whole trip to perfection and Moira for passionately telling us everything about the city and route.
15 October 2022Che and his team were excellent and made our stay in Cape Town (post cruise) amazing. We communicated over whatsapp while I was still on the cruise and discussed what... read more me and my friend wanted to see and do (two females travelling) for the 2.5 days we had in the city. Che put the itinerary together for us and he didn't disappoint; also, communication was excellent. What we especially liked was that the total cost included most entry fees to attractions so that just made the experience seamless without us having to worry about that. We felt totally safe at all times (I was worried about that before going); local knowledge was extensive and overall service was really good. We will definitely return to South Africa, and Che and the team will be my first port of call when planning the trip. Can't recommend enough.

fantastic tour guide so much to see - We booked very last minute with Che ( thinking im spelling the name right) but he was able to put together a great day for myself and my wife on... read more our honeymoon. He was very punctual and professional from the get go. We had a lovely day that was jam packed with thing from boat trips to cape point and much more. Che himself was incredibly knowledgeable about not only the places we visited but also the history of south African in general. He was so enthusiastic about what he was doing it really made for a great experience for me and my wife. Little detail that made it were when he pulled over after noticing some people on the side of the road with cameras pointed out to the water. We stopped and managed to get a great view of some whales swimming in the cove. I would highly recommend wanderer.
PS i have lots more photos but the TripAdvisor page isnt great for uploading
26 September 2022Wanderer elevated our first Cape Town experience! - I can’t say enough great things about Che and his team! We had most of our days already planned by Wanderer prior to arriving, but we had one open... read more day to fill and ZERO dinner plans upon arrival. Che sat down with our group in the lobby of our hotel on the first night to discuss our interests. He then filled our open day with activities catered to our interests. He booked dinner reservations for us each night and made sure we had rides to and from dinner. He also shuttled us to some really great bars after dinner and had called ahead to request great seating. Miles was our guide for 2 full days around the cape region, and we had a great time with him as well.
Che consistently went the extra mile for our group, and it made our vacation even better than we could’ve imagined. It took all of the stress out of figuring out where to eat, what sites to see, and how we were going to get there. We were able to sit back, relax, and truly feel like we made new friends with the Wanderer crew. Thank you Che!

Simply amazing day - Everything about our Peninsula tour with Che was brilliant. His communication is great, picked us up on time, he adapted the day to suit us, he told us things about... read more South Africa and the peninsula we found fascinating and he tried his hardest to find a an elusive zebra at Cape Point. The tour itself was unforgettable we were blessed with perfect weather & everyone in our group of 5 loved it. We would highly recommend Che to anyone travelling to Cape Town.
11 September 2022Your company you can trust! - Brilliant day tour of Cape Town and surrounding areas, led by Miles our tour guide. Did Table Mountain, Boulders Bay, Cape Point and lots more! Guide was so informative and... read more taught us so much. Just amazing and whole process was a pleasure to organise through Che in Cape Town through WhatsApp. Honestly do use as you cannot go wrong. Just the best days tour ever!!
9 August 2022Absolutely fabulous!! - Outstanding service from the moment we arrived in the airport at Capetown to the minute we departed!! Prompt and patient - we would come down in the morning to... read more find him waiting! tailored the tour to our interests (including a 13 year old boy), provided great suggestions for restaurants and formulated wonderful experiences for our activities. Very flexible on arranging our days based on the weather - several activties had to be rescheduled because of rain and Che managed the entire process. Comfortable cars and very attentive to the small details (like my preference for sparkling water vs my son for still and providing local snacks to sample). Expedited our entrance to the parks and events. Catered to our every wish. Highly recommend and shall absolutely use them on our next trip to Capetown
