'10/10 Table Mountain 

Santie is a true professional of her trade and it's noticeable from the moment you engage with her. The selection of route, the process to follow and her quick response. Everything is detailed and well planned.

The information sharing about the mountain's history, the rock formations, fauna, and flora just mind-boggling. There is a sense of comfort you get the moment you meet Santie you just known this will be epic.'

Arlette Marcus - The Netherlands, Du Toit'skop Hike Franschhoek, November 2024

'The hike/climb up Table Mountain via the India Venster Trail was a once in a lifetime experience. Santie was and is the perfect guide for such a trail. She does not only know all about the plants and history of this wonderful mountain, but most important, she ensures you reach the Table Top safely. Thanks a lot Santie and you know, we'd reach out to you to be our guide for any future hiking trip in the Cape Town area - you're the best!'

'Amazing hike with Santie! We had an incredible experience hiking Table Mountain with Santie. Throughout the journey, we gained valuable insights into the mountain's unique ecosystem and learned fascinating details about Cape Town as a whole. Most importantly, Santie’s attentiveness and care made the hike truly memorable. Her extensive experience and warm approach made us feel comfortable and well-guided every step of the way. We highly recommend her to anyone seeking an expert hiking companion! 😃🙌'

'Head in the clouds and feet on the mountain

May 2024 • Solo

We had an exhilirating day in the clouds. Totally covered in mist the experience brought beautiful colours of all the flowers brightly forward. This very knowledgable and experienced guide unlocked a mystical world of strange rockformations and masses of plants. Pure pleasure. You still need to climb the mountain but it was do-able'

Susanna Grabe - Pretoria, Paradise Lost & Found Hike, Cape Town, May 2024

'It is difficult to put into words the extraordinary experience we had doing this hike with Santie. ...stunning views all the way, unexpected valleys(!), lush gorges... incredible fauna and flora… I’m a Colombian who did a thesis in the Amazon jungle, and the biodiversity took my breath away.....

Santie really (really!) pays attention to every single detail of your hike. From your interests, safety measures and briefing, your fitness level, up to her well organised paperwork and payment methods. 

Let yourself be taken to this paradise by the most experienced mountain guide in Cape Town. Her sweet nature and kindness will make you fall in love of Cape Town even more!
