Hello, I am Daniel, and I am a Tourist Guide in Cape Town. ALL my advertised tours are very flexible, and can be tailor-made to your specific interests and needs. I am passionate about our beautiful Cape. When Sir Francis Drake became the first person to sail around the world between 1577 and 1580, he was so impressed with the Cape Peninsula and Table Mountain that he stated in his log "The fairest Cape, the most stately thing we saw in the whole circumference of the globe. " Any visitors to Cape Town have to visit Table Mountain, one of the 7 Wonders of the World. If you are in Cape Town for longer than a day, it is almost compulsory to drive around the Peninsula to the Cape of Good Hope and Cape Point for spectacular views. Our biggest export product is our wines, and a tour of the Winelands with inclusive wine tasting is another great tour. If you are also visiting the rest of South Africa, I also offer one way Garden Route tours where you can link up with Johannesburg from Port Elizabeth Airport. I am a fully qualified, licensed and registered tourist guide for the Western Cape and have a Professional Driving Permit. I am also a member of the Cape Town Tourist Guide Association. As part of my license requirements, I hold a valid First Aid certificate and have also completed a Wine Course. You will be travelling in a safe, air-conditioned car to ensure comfort and safety. When we are more than four people, I rent a larger vehicle from a reputable company. I do not take commission from any person or establishment and therefore I am able to take you anywhere you desire to visit or to places where the actual experience has proved to be of the very best value for your money - not to places where I can make a 'quick buck' on the side! One visit to Cape Town and you will agree with the travel author Lawrence G Green: "Though I am always ready to pack for a journey, I insist that Cape Town shall be at the end of it". Livingstone Tourism Academy - Culture Site Guide; MST Medical Skills Training - First Aid Level 1; Hospitality Connection - Basic Wine Course; Republic Of South Africa - Professional Driving permit EC1; Registered - National Department of Tourism: Cape Metropole; Winelands; Overberg; West Coast & Namaqualand; Breede River Valley; Garden Route up to Port Elizabeth and Surrounds.

My three most popular tours by far during the last few years have been the City, Peninsula and Winelands tours. In this tour we combine them to give the traveller a unique Cape Town experience over three days. The tour includes everything that makes Cape Town famous: The city bowl, Waterfront, Table Mountain, Cape Point and Cape of Good Hope, the African Penguin colony at Boulders, spectacular coastal drives, our famous wine estates and can be tailor made to include Robben Island and other sites that you personally are interested in.
Daniel was an excellent guide. His knowledge, planning and flexibility made our three day tour extremely interesting and most enjoyable. We had to consider the individual preferences of our family of ten and Daniel did a great job in showing us the beautiful Cape Peninsula and ensuring everyone had a wonderful experience.
Had a fabulous time. Daniel was so knowledgeable and accommodating. I would have never thought and seeing some of the spots he pointed out. The third and last day was amazing. Cape Point and Cape of Good Hope and the Penguin encounter. Just had the trip of a lifetime thanks to Daniel. I highly recommend using Daniel for any trips to Cape Town. The first day was table mountain which one must do weather permitting in Cape Town. Spectacular views at the top along with Signal Hill. Thanks again Daniel for such a thorough experience with many spots I would have never thought of seeing.
Our Cape Town Tour with Daniel D. Was great! He was very knowledgeable about the city and its history. He did a great job of knowing when to do various activities to avoid long lines to minimize our waits.. He is very personable and fun. Getting to know the city through his eyes makes us wat to come back!
Guide was prompt and very helpful. He had a resident’s view of the city and country. He was able to take us to every place we wished to go. Very professional.
Daniel was very knowledgeable and flexible. He listened to our preferences and accommodated. All the arrangements were made and everything went smoothly. As adjustments were needed those were done without any problem. Very quickly we felt Daniel was a friend. We would recommend Daniel to anyone unconditionally.
We (two couples) spent 2.5 days with Daniel right before the Xmas holidays and had a great time. Daniel was very supportive and flexible in our itinerary both before and during our time with him. He never “watched the clock” and we saw everything we wanted to see without feeling rushed. He provided insights and history to what we were seeing which allowed us to more than “check the box” of sites. He even facilitated a last minute add to our itinerary 2 days prior to arrival and made it happen. He went above and beyond and met our high expectations for the quality of TBL guides. We would not hesitate using Daniel again or recommend him to those searching through a myriad of TBL guide options in the area.
Days could be changed around to accommodate the weather, but will include: Day 1: The Mother City. The day will include a drive through the city as orientation where I will point out historic places and points of interest. We visit Table Mountain and take the Arial cable way to the top. If the cable way is closed due to bad weather, we will proceed to the Signal Hill viewpoint. The rest of the day is designed around your interests - more or less museums/nature/scenery/shopping etc. Day 2: The Peninsula. We drive the Peninsula in a clockwise direction. I stop regularly for pictures, but official stops include the penguin colony, Cape Point, Cape of Good Hope & Chapman's Peak. We return on the Atlantic seaboard through the suburbs of Camps Bay, Clifton and Sea Point. Day 3: The Winelands. We leave the city to the Wine Regions of Stellenbosch, Paarl and Franschhoek where I will show you points of interest in the towns, beautiful scenery and take you to three wine estates where you can taste!
