our guide Fatima was brilliant and a stop the guide added on the fly was the highlight, and good as a half-day option, and 6 stops in about 3 hours.

our guide Sofia was brilliant and a little local spot off the usual route was the highlight. Mid-week so it was quiet so it wasnt too busy. Miles ahead of a similar tour we tried in cape town, and last day of the trip. Would book again no question, loved it
