1.Cape Town: Robben Island Ferry Ticket and Guided Prison Tour

★★★★★★★★★★4.1 · 1,792 reviews · 4 hours · from $79Our pick

Skip the ferry line to Robben Island from Cape Town and tour the prison with an ex-political prisoner, ending at Mandela cell.

“It was a nice trip to the island; we saw a whale on the way (there are also animals on the island itself like a little tortoise/turtle and birds)! Take a coat for the boat if sitting outside as it can get chilly with the wind (November). At the island itself just go to one of the buses and you’ll be given a tour of the island and its facilities first, before going inside the prison. We had two guides, one in the bus and one in the prison. They both had a great knowledge of history, the island itself and made us laugh too. Truly exceptional. I thoroughly enjoyed…”

Nevertheless, Paul took us on a longer journey so we can try to find a whale. He even messaged us on the next day to tell us to go down to the beach to see the whale. THANK YOU so much for everything, we had a blast!”
