The tour package includes hotel pickup and tickets. It works out well but it feels a bit expensive as the main tour on the island is organized by the museum anyway, so the additional services you get from this tour is the tickets and pickup service.

Ivan, our driver was very nice. The tour is pretty much conducted by the Robben Island team. This is a hotel pick and drop service.
However, Robben Island tour is well packed in 2 hrs. 1 hour will be inside a bus with a guide and the next hour is a tour inside the prison with a former prisoner, which was a great experience.

An amazing historical experience.
The place has very historical value for the fact that a great man, Nelson Mandela, was imprisoned here for 18 years of his life simply for fighting against the injustices given by the apartheid government than.
The tour begins with a presentation by an ex prisoner who describes the harsh life in this prison and the maltreatment given to prisoners who were just political activists.
Worth a visit !

I had the pleasure of being guided by an exceptional tour guide who truly elevated my experience. Ivan from SadiCape Tours was incredible. His extensive knowledge, engaging storytelling, and genuine passion for the subject matter made the tour not only informative but also incredibly enjoyable. What stood out the most was their commitment to going above and beyond – from personalized recommendations to ensuring everyone felt included. This guide’s enthusiasm and dedication transformed a simple tour into a memorable adventure. I wholeheartedly recommend their services for an enriching and delightful exploration.

The queue to boarding the ship was very long but the front desk ladies managed it very well. The tour guide Thabo is very knowledgeable and how he narrated the history of Robben Island was very insightful and heartbreaking at the same time. I will definitely visit again...

The tour was fine. Viator has absolutely overcharged for the experience. Why do you have a 100% mark up on tickets?
