Creator's Key Takeaways

We paid about $100 US for access to up to 80 attractions in the 4 days that we're here.

It definitely seats behind us, too. So, we could even sit off the back.

It's going to be really hard to hear over the music and we're probably going to get copyright, but there is a seal right at the edge of that mirror.

I would have loved to have heard the water. All I heard was Grandma Grindons.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Use the bathroom before you go because the bathroom is underneath the lower deck and it's kind of difficult to get into.
Bring some cash or card to purchase additional drinks.
If you do plan on dancing, find your spot because there's not really a ton of room on the dance floor.

Expectations for a quiet sunset cruiseBe aware that the experience is more of a party vibe with loud music, not a quiet cruise like in Florida.

YouTube Video Description

We took a sunset boat tour in Cape Town as part of the Cape Town City Pass — and it definitely wasn’t what we expected. While the views were beautiful and Lewis had a great time, the experience was much louder and more high-energy than we anticipated, with loud music and a party-style crowd. In this video, we share an honest look at what the Cape Town sunset boat tour is really like so you can decide if it’s right for you. If you’re considering this experience through the City Pass, this review will help set realistic expectations. In this video you’ll see: • Cape Town sunset boat tour experience • What’s included with the Cape Town City Pass • Harbor views at sunset • The overall vibe and atmosphere on board • Why this experience wasn’t what we expected • Why Lewis still enjoyed it • Who this tour is best for (and who may want to skip it) • Whether the sunset boat tour is worth it • Part of our 2025 World Tour across South Africa, Zambia, Zimbabwe, Botswana, Egypt, and beyond VIDEO GEAR WE USE* Water Bottle (Iron Flask): https://amzn.to/3TdHnu7 Microphones (DJI Mics): https://amzn.to/40vqDSU GoPro Hero 13: https://amzn.to/3UkL3KJ Camera (Canon EOS M6 Mark II – Body): https://amzn.to/44ItuID 360 Camera (Insta360 X5): https://amzn.to/43q87Na Drone (DJI Mini Pro 4): https://amzn.to/4ptAd2h As an Amazon Associate we earn a small commission on qualifying purchases.
