This May I joined David the guide and others to walk from Table Mountain to Cape Point in South Africa, over five days and four overnights in tented accommodation. I knew that I would enjoy it when I had plant and animal life pointed out. Also all my questions were answered on the history and culture of South Africa. Although... More

We had a great hike with Leonard up Table Mt. At the end of April it was a bit unclear what the weather and rain would be like but we lucked-out and had a perfect day. Our guide, Leonard, was awesome. He accomodated our fitness levels, fear of heights (mine!) and interests and put together a great outing (including a... More

We engaged AWOL for a Cape Town bike tour as well as a hike up Table Mountain on the back course. The bike tour was a great and easy way to see the city, we had two young kids with us (13 and 10) and they easily navigated their bikes through the city streets and sidewalks of Cape Town. We... More

The hike was wonderful- our guide was knowledgeable and he tailored the hike well to our abilities. We had originially planned to do the hike on our own but we were so happy we chose to go with AWOL tours.

Late April is late in the season for Cape Town. So I had to pay a single person supplement. However, Jeremy conducted the guided walk with enthusiasm and showed a good knowledge of regional history and local Laura.

April 2013 my 9 year old, husband and I took the cycle tour of the Masiphumelele Township. Thank You AWOL for making this one the best things we did during our stay in ZA. We learned a lot about the community , our daughter played with the kids, we had a great meal. We still are talking about our experience.

We found our walking tour of Capetown the perfect introduction at the beginning of a six-day stay. A very good orientation, both geographically and historically. Our guide was knowledgeable and engaging.

We recently did 2 tours with AWOL including the Table Mountain Hike and the City Bike Tour. David was our guide on both days and went out of his way to ensure we had a great time and learnt a little of the history surrounding Cape Town. Hike Table Mountain This is something you must do if you are able... More

Finally I joined one of the AWOL township cycle tours. We were staying in Noordhoek so it made sense to book a township tour nearby. Masiphumelele is only a 10 minute drive. We were met by Vivienne in the parking lot, a very nice guide with a lot of knowledge of life in the township and very patient with the... More
