This is the tour company you want - I just wrapped up a private tour yesterday with Santa cruise tours and Tingo. I can’t say enough great things about the tour and our guide. This was everything I could have wanted out of a tour and the experience. I feel really lucky to have picked this company. I would do it all again in a heart beat. Tingo was amazing! So knowledgeable and just a great human being. Thank you!

Cape Towns finest tour guide - Tingo is a knowledgeable and amicable guide. The tour was a highlight on our trip, with many shorts stops at key locations as we made our way down to the Cape of good hope. With a diverse group of ages (15 to 81) and ability, he accommodated all of us. We never felt rushed, with time at each stop to explore as we wanted. He was on time, personable, and we felt completely safe. He shared photos and videos he took at the end of the day which was an added bonus. If you are going with a tour, go with Tingo.

An Exceptional tour with a friendly, gracious host! - An absolutely perfect experience with Santa Cruise tours. Tingo is beyond gracious, kind and very knowledgeable about every point on our trip. He shared the history of the region in real time, using examples along the way to help us understand the peoples, cultures, animals, nature and significance of the area. One of my favorite experiences is that Tingo anticipated good photos for us and advised us to “get our cameras” ready before we got to a spot to ensure a perfect picture. He even took some spectacular photos for us and shared them. via airdrop before we got out of the van! After our super neat up-close experience with the penguins at Boulders park, we stopped for lunch at a seaside restaurant where I had the best dish and veggies just steps from the pier. By the time we got to Cape Point, and Cape Hope, we were already blown away by our experience, and standing atop the lighthouse, at the edge of Africa where two oceans meet was the culmination…so I thought. on our way home, Tingo timed it just right so that we could see and ethereal sunset that will stay with me for the rest of my life. there is no other personal affordable and friendly company to take. For sure, we will only travel with Santa Cruise tours when we return!

Best Tour of the Cape & The Penguins! - Sungai Is great, ask for him. He gives a great tour of the Cape and the Penguins, highlighting the key points along the way and taking the scenic route. He is calm, professional and adapts to his clients needs easily. Was friendly and a great guide for this private trip. The way to go if you want to see all of the sites and not be on a big tour bus.

Perfect! - Sungani created a perfect day out for us to tour cape town and surrounding areas. Very punctual. He paid attention to all requests made and made things happen, tweaking the schedule to what worked for us. He knew we were vegetarians - so chose appropriate restaurants. I would highly recommend him and his outfit.
