“Nice tour to Robben Island by ferry. Ferry was fully enclosed and quite crowded. Once on the island after about a 45 minute ride, we boarded a bus with an ex-prisoner guide who provided details about the buildings and life on the island. After an hour we were dropped at the prison and did about an hour of walking and understanding of life inside by another ex-prisoner. The tour provided a very moving explanation of what actually happened to those who disagreed with segregation, and the goals of the Government to try to silence them.”

The directions to get our tickets and explanation about the schedule/how to find our way around the island were also helpful and clear. The snorkeling activity was really amazing! The staff threw break near the boat which attracted lots of fish, and you also had the opportunity to jump of the side of the boat! Overall it was a fun experience and definitely worth the price. The beach on Lobos was also great, we also recommend taking a stroll around the island!”
