The guides are very informative and have personal connections to the history. Get to the ferry early for an outdoor seat/bonus views of Cape Town from the water. - Lindsey Warren

Loved the catering - hashbrown with smoked salmon, pesto chicken in pastry, kebabs and spinach spanakopita (triangles) - Yajna Gold
Lively historic venue and good acoustics for concerts. Often have good International musicians. - Fathima Dada
