Oh my goodness. What an experience. Harleys to the Cape of Good Hope from Cape Town is the only way to experience this beautiful part of the world. Louw, Heine, Gary, Jason and Brandon (sorry if i have spelt the names incorrectly), were the best drivers and hosts. We have so much fun with them, felt safe and they where guides as much as drivers. We spend from 9am to 6pm with them, scooting from the V&A, passing through Camp Bay, and so many other towns, hitting Cape of Good Hope. We had plenty of time to stop for coffee and cake at a gorgeous coffee shop, and climb up to the light house and Dias Point at the Cape, then one of the best meals of the trip, lunch at Simons Town, so quaint and pretty and finally on to Boulders Beach to see the penguins. The scenery was out of this world and the enjoyment we got from seeing stunning scenery around every bend through a Harley is unexplainable. Our entire family of 5, includes 3 girls aged 17, 19 and 22 were in awe of the entire day. Not to mention the bragging rights my husband now has amongst his friends. And the bikes themselves, they are a piece of art, shiny and beautiful. Anyone who goes to Cape Town, I beg you not to miss out on this experience, it is one you will keep close to your hearts forever. Thank you Louw, Heine, Gary, Jason and Brandon, we are eternally grateful for making our day so special.

From start to finish communication with West Coast Motorcycle rentals was amazing. Booked a nice Harley for my trip to South Africa and the owner was informative and helpful throughout the entire process of booking the bike. When arriving on the day to pick up the bike for our adventure the team at the shop were helpful with fitting us with the right gear and even offering us some coffee as we arrived early in the morning. The bike was in pristine shape and even had a phone holder for using GPS The rates for the rentals were the best in town and they went above and beyond to make sure we had everything we needed before heading out. I would be more than happy to rent from this shop again and again.
