Product Info

Experience two of Cape Town's most popular attractions seamlessly with this pre-booked activity ticket package combining a historic visit to Robben Island and a scenic ride on the Cape Wheel at the V&A Waterfront. This package is uniquely designed to eliminate the stress of navigating crowded ticketing rows and confusing terminal layouts by providing a personal local host to manage your initial check-in logistics.
Your experience begins at the V&A Waterfront, where you will meet your professional logistics host right outside the Nelson Mandela Gateway to Robben Island. Your dedicated host handles the ticketing verification lines, guides you through the terminal check-in protocols, and helps secure your physical boarding passes. At this time, your host will also hand over your general admission tickets for the Cape Wheel, ensuring you have all your entry passes before you even step onto the boat.
Once your host guides you smoothly to the boarding gates, you will board the shared ferry for a scenic boat ride across Table Bay to Robben Island. On the island, you will embark on the standard guided tour of the historic maximum security prison led by a former political prisoner, gaining deep personal insights into South Africa's history and Nelson Mandela's legacy.
After completing the island tour, you will return via ferry to the V&A Waterfront. From there, your experience is completely self-guided. You can walk over to the nearby Cape Wheel at your own leisure using the tickets provided by your host earlier. Step into an air-conditioned cabin to enjoy a breathtaking 360 degree panoramic flight over the historic harbour and the glittering city skyline. The Cape Wheel tickets are fully flexible, allowing you to enjoy your ride either before your ferry departs or after you return from the island.
