Well Planned - Very recommendable tour, everything was well planned step by step, the penguins remained the highlight of my day, what a beautiful coastal landscape. Chapmans drive was my favourite scenic drive.

Recommendable - Had an unforgettable Experience going along the coast line of Cape Town while visiting some beautiful coastal villages. The Boulders Beach was such an amazing experience seeing the Africans PENQUINS in their Natural Habitat, once in lifetime visit at the south most western point of Africa #The Cape of Good Hope.
Fiston our guide was very friendly and helpful.

Every moment felt incredible to us - Our trip to Cape Town, South Africa was truly incredible and memorable. We booked a private luxury family tour with Lola Tours Cape Town with our family and the experience was absolutely perfect. The guide Peter was amazing, very polite, knowledgeable and understood the needs of traveling with a family very well. The entire tour was very comfortable, on time and perfectly planned. The natural beauty of the Cape of Good Hope was breathtaking. The view created by the sea and the mountains fascinated us all. We also got the chance to see African penguins up close at Boulders Beach. Camps Bay Beach was simply a dream with blue sea and a very peaceful atmosphere. Camps Bay creates an amazing atmosphere at sunset that is beyond words! We felt safe, comfortable and taken care of throughout the entire trip. Thank you so much for this unforgettable experience!

An Amazing Private Tour - My Wife and I visited Cape Town in early May for our Honeymoon. Our experience was fantastic, and a highlight was definitely a private tour around the Cape of Good Hope. Our driver Peter made our experience exceptional and unforgettable. The history and natural beauty of this tour speak for themselves, but what we didnt expect was how much value Peter added to our experience. He was friendly, prioritized our interests, and answered our countless questions throughout the day. I highly recommend a private tour if it's available, especially if you are fortunate enough to meet Peter.

Amazing Full Day Tour with Peter - This was our first time in Cape Town and the tour with Peter was amazing. It was a full day tour and we were able to see many places with Peter that we could not have organized ourselves (e.g., ostrich farm, farmer's market, wildlife, sea lions, Cape of Good Hope, Twelve Apostles mountain range, Penguins, Boo-Kaap, etc. The van was nice and clean with seatbelts and we were given time at each stop to look around. The places visited were all iconic and Peter had a lot of knowledge of the history of Cape Town and the locations visited. We really enjoyed our tour and would definitely book again on our next time in Cape Town. Highly recommend this tour!

Unforgettable Cape Town Experience with Peter and Lola Tours – A Truly World-Class Tour - If I could give Peter and Lola Tours more than five stars, I would. This was, without question, one of the top two or three tours I’ve ever taken anywhere in the world. Peter delivered an experience that was not only comprehensive and professionally executed, but also deeply personal and rich with local insight.
He didn’t just show us Cape Town — he helped us understand it. From history and culture to hidden gems and authentic perspectives, every stop felt meaningful. His knowledge runs deep, his timing was impeccable, and his warmth and adaptability made us feel like we were traveling with a trusted friend.
If you’re considering a tour in Cape Town, stop searching — book with Lola Tours. You will leave with a deeper connection to the city, and a travel memory you’ll treasure for life.

Fantastic day in Cape Town and environs - We had an outstanding time on our full day private tour in Cape Town to Cape of Good Hope. Our guide/driver, Peter K, was the best. He accommodated all of our requests, was kind and also very knowledgeable about South Africa’s history. We asked to be on Table Mountain at sunset and he made it all work perfectly. All in all, this day was one of the best tour days we’ve been on. Highly recommend Peter K.

Wonderful day of touring! - Our entire day was superb! Peter is very knowledgeable and does an excellent job of conveying information without overwhelming us with details. We were fortunate and the weather the day of our trip was fabulous. Unfortunately, previous days had not been so many people who had been unable to take the cable car previously wanted to do so on our day. Peter knew what time of day might reduce that and planned accordingly for late afternoon. Since the queue was still long and my bad hip was giving out after a long day he disappeared for a little while and came back with the necessary permissions to take us a different way where I could sit for most of the wait. We did not ask him to do this. It was just one detail he took care of during the day. In summary, we would do this or any tour with Peter again.

The staff is rude, and behaves very badly - The staff are rude, very bad mannered and think they are superior to you. The staff behavior is so terrible that they don't care about you. They don't know anything about customer service. They charge extra but don't care about the service, they want money but don't think they have any responsibility for your safety. This is daylight robbery, save your money and eat here instead. There are many beautiful beaches that you can visit for free and you won't have to be tortured by the staff.
