I have never used a bus like this before in the world. As a solo traveler it was just perfect to get from A to B and get a feel for the city. The buses run very regularly and you can even track them live. The 2-day ticket even included a harbor boat tour. Clear recommendation!

It was a very good idea to do that!!! Learned a lot about the region and combined it with other activities such as a trip to Table Mountain or a visit to Kirstenbosch. The bus ride was pleasant and all the people who worked there were very friendly. Absolutely do it!!!

If you do Hop on Hop one in Cape Town I recommend the two day tour. 1 day red with Camp Bay and 2 day blue with Botanical Garden and for the boat tour I recommend the canal tour.

Excellent. As always informative. Unfortunately the bus had a crack in the windshield. Unfortunately the stop page is not up to date online! That was very annoying.

Very nice. Great round, saw a lot, even when getting out in between.
