This World Heritage Site, which is one of South Africas most revered national monuments, was once a prison. Among its more famous inmates was the 19th century tribal chief, Makana, who lost his life attempting to escape by boat across the Bay, and South Africas first democratically elected president, Nelson Mandela. He spent two decades of his life on the island, along with some 3 000 other political detainees, many of whom were icons of the resistance and became leaders of the new South Africa.
This stirring tour is led by experienced island guides (some of whom were once inmates) and includes a visit to the Prison Block and the infamous Limestone Quarry, where prisoners toiled, as well as a drive around the island
N.B. The advantage of this option is that, at a relatively insignificant cost (1 x Robben Island ticket), the Wilderness Touring guide is available to offer additional commentary, guide guests through queues and provide translations where necessary.
The Wilderness Touring guide will organize and facilitate alternate touring should the Robben Island tour be cancelled due to weather (regular occurrence) as the vehicle and guide remain at the disposal of the guests.
