Why We Love This Unique Experience

Step back in time and explore the rich history of South Africa with a Half Day Robben Island Ferry and Prison Tour. This unforgettable experience takes you on a fascinating journey to the infamous island where Nelson Mandela was imprisoned for 18 years. With a pre-booked skip-the-line ticket, there's no need to worry about waiting—simply hop on the ferry and prepare to immerse yourself in a significant chapter of the country’s struggle for freedom.

The adventure begins at the Nelson Mandela Gateway, where you'll board the ferry and cruise across the stunning waters. Upon arrival at Robben Island, a guided bus tour will reveal the island's haunting past, including stops to learn about the daily lives of political prisoners. A former inmate will share personal tales of resilience and hope, offering an intimate look at life on the island. Highlights of the tour include a visit to Nelson Mandela's prison cell and a reflective walk along the Long March to Freedom, allowing you to truly understand the sacrifices made for liberty.
