Loved every minute of this tour - I recently completed this tour with my adult daughter. From the first communication with Eunice to the end of the tour I cannot rave about this company enough. Tariq was our guide and was professional, knowledgeable, lots of fun and looked after us so well. Our accomodation was clean but basic. We were given detailed information every day and Tariq was flexible to show us a few extra highlights. Eunice communicated with us constantly to ensure we had all the information. If you are easy going, relatively fit, don’t mind driving long distances with lots of rest stops though this tour is for you. We loved every minute of our tour.

CapeXtreme Garden Route 10/10 trip! - Our Garden Route tour was amazing! We did many activities and Dylan our guide gives the extra experience. Very relatable and interesting information is given by the guide and a well planned itinerary with much to do. We did a safari, town visits, lookouts, map of Africa, elephant sanctuary, face adrenaline skywalk, cango caves and trips to the beach and walks at viewpoints. Overall an amazing time thanks to CapeXtreme and Dylan especially going above and beyond, not to mention how passionate he is touring! Cheers guys

Action packed weekend - Was a good experience. Bungee jumping was my highlight though! Would recommend doing a longer weekend though as it is a lot of driving and activities to fit in the 3 days. However, was still a life changing experience!
My guide was Lourens who was great.

Bungee Jump Tour with Lourens - Last month my friend and I decided to take a bungee jump tour during our stay in Cape Town, and our experience was absolutely unforgettable. Our guide, Lourens, taught us a lot about the local area and made our group feel like a little family by the end of our three day tour. The house we stayed in was very nice and we got a homemade meal every night, and enjoyed time around the fire outside.
The activities we did, the big five game tour, quad bike tour, elephant sanctuary, and of course the bungee jumping, was all very enjoyable and professional, and the beautiful landscapes made it all the much better!
My friend and I had such an amazing experience, and were especially glad to feel safe and looked after as we are both young female travelers. I would definitely recommend this experience to anyone who loves an adrenaline rush, or just wants to have a small taste of the beauty of South Africa, and would especially like to thank our guide, Lourens, and all the other staff who made our experience so memorable!

Amazing days! - It was amazing to do the Garden Route tour with CapeXtreme. We could see very beautiful and different landscapes: caves, beaches and wild animals in their natural habitat. The trip was even better with Lourens, he tryed many times to do the possible to attend everybody; for example suggesting to see the sunset and sunrising at the beach. Besides that he has a lot of knowledge about every place that we pass, is a very fun person , which is good to make the trip more enjoyable. So, I highly recommend CapeXtreme and Lourens as a guide !!

garden route and bungee jump tour - The whole experience was definitely about one of the most memorable moments of my life, and of course the tour guide Lourens played a big part in that. The way he organized our schedule and was totally flexible about the activities demonstrates the dedicated professional he is - and also a great singer and pool player haha - he proved to be extremely intelligent and with a great sense of humor that was essential for our entire group to come together and make the experience more enjoyable. I just have to thank CapeXtreme, and specially Lourens, for everything. Looking foward to the opportunity to do all that again ;)

Taariq - We are just back from our amazing trip! From start to finish it was so well organised and it was beyond all my expectations. Our host was Taariq, nothing was a problem for him. He was full of knowledge and clearly loved his job. At night he would sit out and chat with us, he was more a friend than anything.
He pushed us to conquer our fears at the bungee and was so proud of us when we completed it.
We also went an elephant sanctuary and it was so beautiful. I'm a huge animal lover and you could tell they were so well looked after. I'd recommend anyone to do this tour, it was fab!
The host at the house was just so amazing, I was so sad to leave her. She went above and beyond for us. Amazing few days with amazing people!

The worst travel experience I have ever had. - I was put on a bus with teenagers aging 15-19.
They were shouting and screaming the entire way n throwing water at each other. Me and my sister got soaked wet. And when I asked them to stop they called me “LOCA” and almost got physical with me with the bus driver watching.
At the hostel, I couldn’t sleep for 3 consecutive nights because of how noisy they were. I spoke to the bus driver and he just dismissed me. His excuse was it’s communal living and I had to put up with the drunk screams till 3 am every night.
The tour at the safari was meant to be one hour and ended as a 45 min tour of seeing nothing.
The bus driver kept on pushing and embarrassing us to buy food and drinks that we didn’t need from the restaurants and cafes to get his commission which made us extremely uncomfortable.
The hostel was dirty. The entire experience unpleasant if u r anything above 30, it’s not the right place for u.
When we came back, we complained to the office on long street. Again, they were dismissive and didn’t even bother to apologize.
