Private group tours and transport for 10 to 300 plus guests
One standard of service, whatever the size of your group.

Airport transfers
The first and last impression, handled properly.
Every journey starts at Cape Town International Airport. Your driver meets you inside arrivals with your name on a board, your flight is monitored so we are there when you actually land, and you are driven straight to your hotel in a private vehicle.
Fixed rates start at R550 to the City, R850 to Stellenbosch, Somerset West and Camps Bay, and R1,450 to Paarl and Franschhoek for 1 to 2 passengers.

We continue to the fishing village of Paternoster, with its whitewashed cottages and fresh seafood, timing the day to when the flowers are at their best.

Robben Island & Mandela's Cape Town
The places where South Africa's freedom story was written.
Ferries to Robben Island leave from the Nelson Mandela Gateway at the V&A Waterfront. On the island, a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1999, former political prisoners guide visitors through the prison where Nelson Mandela spent 18 of his 27 years behind bars.
Back on the mainland, we visit the Grand Parade, where Mandela gave his first speech as a free man from the balcony of City Hall, the District Six Museum, and Langa, established in the 1920s and one of the oldest townships in Cape Town. We plan the day around ferry times, which are best booked well ahead.
- Robben Island ferry and prison tour
- Grand Parade and City Hall
- District Six Museum
- Langa township
Big Five safari at Aquila: lion, leopard, elephant, rhino and buffalo
Lion, elephant, rhino, buffalo and leopard, a short drive from Cape Town.
Aquila Private Game Reserve lies about two hours from the city in the Karoo, close enough for a day trip. Game drives in open vehicles look for the Big Five across mountain and plains, with lunch at the lodge. We collect you early from your hotel and have you back by evening.
The name Big Five comes from the old hunting days, when lion, leopard, elephant, rhino and buffalo were thought the most dangerous animals to track on foot. Today they are celebrated rather than hunted, and each one appears on a South African banknote, so you can carry the Big Five home in your wallet.
Meet the Big Five
Adventure & wildlife
For guests who want more than a view.
We build days around the Cape's best outdoor experiences, timed to the activity and with transport waiting at the end.
- Sandboarding and 4x4 dune drives on the Atlantis dunes
- Shark cage diving in Gansbaai
- Cheetah encounters at Cheetah Outreach in Somerset West
- Zip lining and quad biking in the forests and hills of Grabouw
- Horseback riding on Noordhoek's long white beach
- Golf days and scuba diving around the Peninsula
Make a moment unforgettable
Tell us the occasion. We take care of the rest.
Some days are about one moment. Choose an idea below or tell us your own, and we arrange every detail, from the vehicle to the timing to the people on the ground.
- Helicopter flip over Table Mountain, the Twelve Apostles and Cape Point
- Marriage proposal at a secret sunset spot, with flowers, photographer and dinner arranged
- Private dinner on a beach or mountain viewpoint
- Sunset cruise from the V&A Waterfront
- Birthday, anniversary or honeymoon days planned around you
Golf in the Cape
World class courses between the mountains and the sea.
Few places on Earth pack so many great courses into one hour's drive: parkland, mountain and true links, designed by legends like Gary Player and Jack Nicklaus, with Table Mountain, the Helderberg or the Atlantic as a backdrop. We plan single golf days and full golf tours, book your tee times, carry your clubs and wait at the clubhouse.
What to expect
- The wind. The southeaster, the Cape Doctor, blows hardest in summer afternoons. Morning tee times give the calmest rounds.
- Booking ahead. The top courses fill quickly in summer, from November to March. We secure tee times when you book with us.
- Caddies and carts. Most courses offer caddies, carts and rental clubs, so you can travel light.
- Dress code. Collared shirts and tailored shorts or trousers are expected, with soft spikes only.
- Value. Green fees at championship courses cost far less than comparable courses in Europe or the United States.
- Beyond the golf. We pair rounds with sightseeing, fine dining and non golfing days for partners and family.
Corporates, conferences and incentives
On time, every time, across every vehicle.
We move executives, delegates and incentive groups with coordinated schedules, briefed drivers and one point of contact. From airport arrivals for a whole conference to a chauffeur on standby for a board visit, the logistics stay invisible.
Cape Rhino is BBBEE Level 1, female and youth owned, giving corporate clients 135% procurement recognition.
- Conference and event transport
- Incentive trips and team days
- Executive chauffeur on standby
- Airport arrivals for large groups
Buying property in Cape Town
We drive you to every viewing and help you find the right area.
Thinking of buying a home, a holiday house or an investment property in Cape Town? We make the search easy. Send us your list of viewings and we plan the day, drive you from home to home and wait while you look, so you can focus on the property, not the parking.
Not sure where to start? Tell us what matters to you: sea or mountain views, schools, security, golf, a short commute or village life. We know every corner of the Cape and suggest the areas and neighbourhoods that fit your needs, then show you around them before you view a single house.
We work alongside your estate agents and do not sell property ourselves, so our suggestions are always about what suits you.
- Atlantic Seaboard: Clifton, Camps Bay, Bantry Bay and Sea Point, for sea views and beach living
- City Bowl: Tamboerskloof, Oranjezicht and Higgovale, close to the mountain and the city
- Southern Suburbs: Constantia, Bishopscourt, Newlands and Claremont, leafy and close to top schools
- False Bay coast: Kalk Bay, St James and Simon's Town, for seaside village life
- Winelands: Stellenbosch, Franschhoek, Paarl and Val de Vie, for estates and space
- Helderberg: Somerset West and the Erinvale golf estate
Sport tours and tournaments
Teams, kit and fans, all where they need to be.
We transport touring rugby, cricket, soccer, hockey and netball teams, with transport planned around training, matches and recovery. Between fixtures we add sightseeing, so a sports tour becomes the trip of a lifetime.
Cape Town has hosted Rugby World Cup and FIFA World Cup matches, and Newlands is one of the most famous cricket grounds in the world, with Table Mountain as its backdrop.
School excursions from overseas
Learning that stays with students for life.
We host school and university groups from abroad with safe, reliable transport and a programme built around what they are studying: history at Robben Island and the District Six Museum, conservation with penguins, whales and cheetahs, science at Cape Point and Kirstenbosch, and community visits arranged with care.
Teachers have one contact for the whole trip, vehicles sized for the group, and drivers who are used to young travellers.
- History and apartheid heritage
- Marine and wildlife conservation
- Geography, botany and science
- Community and cultural visits
The Cederberg Mountains
Red rock arches, San rock art and truly dark skies.
About three hours north of Cape Town, the Cederberg Wilderness is a landscape of weathered sandstone towers, ancient San rock paintings and some of the clearest night skies in the country. It suits guests looking for silence and scale, and we usually plan it as an overnight stay.
The Garden Route
Oudtshoorn, George, Wilderness, Knysna, Plettenberg Bay and Tsitsikamma.
Six hours east of Cape Town lies an entirely different South Africa. We travel out along Route 62 through the Klein Karoo, with its hot springs and mountain passes, to the ostrich town of Oudtshoorn and the Cango Caves, then follow the coast through George, the lakes of Wilderness, the Knysna lagoon, the beaches of Plettenberg Bay and the ancient forest of Tsitsikamma.
