If you are looking for an amazing tour guide, look no further than George Meyer. George is very knowledgeable, friendly, easy to talk to, and punctual. He knows Cape Town like the back of his hand and seems to know half the people in the city (and we are not joking about that)! Everyone loves George and we learned why in our 5 days with him.
George picked us up from the airport on day one, took us to our apartment (that he had previously scoped out for us) and even helped get us checked in. Each day after that, we made a plan with him about our desired activities and he arrived on time each morning and made sure we made the most of our days.
George knows not only where to go and what to do, but he also has an excellent knowledge of the history of South Africa and we learned so much from spending time with him. It was also fun to learn some local lingo like “sho’t left” and “baie dankie.”
It was great to have George as our guide, because we didn’t have to waste time figuring out what to do or how to get there. I highly recommend hiking or riding the tram to the top of Table Mountain, seeing the penguins at Boulders Beach, paragliding from Signal Hill, and driving to the Cape of Good Hope.
We were lucky to have George as our guide for several days in July 2022 in the Cape Town area and highly recommend him to anyone looking to visit the beautiful city. He will make everyday a fun, educational and exciting adventure!
Before going to South Africa, we thought of it as a “once in a lifetime” trip. After being there and spending time with George, we can’t wait to go back again.
