Personalised Shuttle Tours: See The Cape Through Carl & Emsie’s Eyes
If you’ve ever stayed with us at Somerset View Guest House, you’ll know we love nothing more than sharing our favourite spots with our guests… those little gems you don’t always find in the guidebooks.
Now, we’re making it even easier for you to experience the best of the area with custom shuttle tours, designed by us, with all the hidden gems the locals love.
We’ve explored every corner from family-run wine farms to flower-filled valleys, and secret viewpoints along the coast. Whether it’s your first time here, or you’re a regular visitor, we’ll help you experience the Cape at your own pace, with a few of Carl and Emsie’s (Your hosts) personal recommendations along the way.
A Shuttle Tour, Your Way
No fixed schedules, no big groups, just you, your travel companions, and a local’s insight. Our shuttle service is fully personalised, so you can build your perfect outing. Want to stop for a wine tasting? No problem. Keen to explore farm stalls, hidden beaches or the Cederberg flower season? We’ll take you there.

Some of Our Favourite Hidden Gems:
Cederberg Flower Routes (in season) this is a must-see for nature lovers.
Small, family-run wineries that offer something special.
Scenic drives through the Helderberg and along the coast.
Stops at farm stalls, markets and cafés along the way.

If you have stayed with us might have heard Carl (Your host) talk about our visits to Clanwilliam or Gydo Pass both perfect examples of those places off the beaten track that we love to share with guests.


































Let’s Make it Easy
We’ll handle the driving, so you can sit back, relax, and soak in the views. Whether it’s a short morning trip or a full day of exploring, we’ll help you discover the Cape’s charm, local flavour and those small, special moments that make your stay unforgettable.
