June CPT visit - I did the premium package and I loved everything! I am still nostalgic from the holiday, the beautiful locations, I go to CPT often and will bring my family too and the red bus will be a 'standard must do tour' each time when in CPT! I love the tour bus idea and will recommend to everyone.

1st thing to do when you arrive at Cape Town - Take this bus and make as many routes as you can fit into your 1st day at Cape Town. It will give you interesting information on the city, establish the neighborhoods, and help you organize your tours the following days. Great cost x benefits.
