I have booked the Sept. 25 tour and am traveling solo from California. Is it worthwhile to go a day before the actual tour starts to recover from jet lag? Is it worthwhile to go to Robbie Island? Are there any other solo travelers going at this time?

    It’s definitely worth going the day before! It’s quite a journey from California!
    Yes, Robben island is worth going to, but getting there is very weather dependent because ferries can be canceled as the seas are often rough. I also recall something about the island being closed for renovation a while ago, so you need to check that too.

    British is 100% correct. Go the day before your tour starts so you can adjust to the time zone and allow your body to recoup from the air travel!

    I visited Robben Island in March. It's completely open!
