A must do if you want to see where Nelson Mandela spent 18 years of his jail sentence on Robben Island. Robben Island is fairly large and you start with a bus tour with an on board guide giving you information about different buildings and landmarks as you drive around. You'll then head on foot into the maximum security prison. We had a guided tour with an ex convict that gave us a deeper understanding about how the prison system functioned. You'll walk through the administration room, the armoury and various courtyard sections and jail cells with written stories on the walls of the jail cells as well as seeing Mandela's cell. Its insightful and quite the experience to walk where political activists and other prisoners lived and even died during their stay on the island.

They ask for passport then buy ticket. It is nonsense. Also bad organization. Everywhere was lines. We saw only some rooms, and half hour just talk, without any foto, video, or writen information

Such arrogant and horrible people. They are super lazy. Because of them couldn't get tickets in time. And had to miss the boat. Really don't know how these people are hired. Even a monkey would have done a better job.

1. They require passports to enter the ferry. 2. Logistic organisation is super poor, we waited our bus for 30 min to one direction, and 40 min back. 3. The program is boring, no artifacts, no show, no interaction, just talking about history. 4. Groups are owercrouded, abot 60-70 people.

It was very moving to hear the story directly from an ex-prisoner. Also sepressing, of course. Wish it wasnt so crowded so weit would have more time to letzten the impressions sink in.
