Robben Island tour company cancelled on us the fist booking and then they were booked out so we booked through Viator. Robben Island cancelled again. so we didn’t go due to all these technical problems with the boat. I heard people have been stranded on the Island as the boat keeps breaking down. Never got to go as we had to leave Cape Town.

The content of the tour is great and the guides were really good. My only note would be that being packed on a tour bus wasn’t the greatest - it would have been nice to have more room to be a bit more comfortable. But the overall experience was worthwhile.
