Idyllic day with great wine and scenery. Vehicle looked new, aircon adjusted for the hot weather, and the guide was very patient.

We'd enjoyed the wine tour on our last trip to Cape Town 4 years ago, we decided to repeat this time.
We were not disappointed. Bruce was excellent guide again.
We visited different wine farms from previous tour, and a great selection. A fantastic contrast from a large commercial winery to a v small family farm.
Would no hesitate to do again or recommend to others.

Great experience from start to finish. Donovan was really knowledgable & friendly. Loved all 4 wineries, each offering something different & even liked wines I wouldn’t normally like! They were developing new chocolate flavours so only got to try/pair orange & blueberry - both great with chosen wines. Had a great lunch (which helped soak up some alcohol) & then amazing how a cheese can affect the flavour of a wine. Learned a lot, picked up on time, dropped off by 6pm - all together a great day, would recommend.

Where to begin!
Unfortunately we had picked the weekend of the Cape marathon and the traffic around Cape Town was horrendous. However, despite the bad traffic and the nearly impossible route Bruce had to take to pick people up he managed to keep smiling.
We started the day with 4 groups of strangers (9 people in total) but by the end of the first vineyard visit we were all great friends and this continued the whole day.
Bruce’s knowledge of wine was excellent and all the vineyards we visited were excellent. Be warned though you can drink a lot of wine (which we all did!). The lunch was excellent as were the chocolates Bruce had made.
We had such a brilliant day and would highly recommend it to anyone.

The tour guide knows the area and knows wine. We had 16 different varieties of wines and I learned what wines I enjoyed. We had a variety of cheeses and chocolates with our wine.
Lunch was very good.
My nephew knew of a winery that his friend had visited. He asked the guide if we could go and he made it possible.
It was a great day.

Couldn't have scripted a better day! Easy, on-time pick up at our hotel. Clean, newer van. Knowledgeable tour guide who spoke clearly in English. He really knew his stuff (I work in the wine industry). Small group of 8, representing many different countries & cultures. It was a blast. We visited Paarl, Franschhoek, and Stellenbosch and went to wine farms selected to meet our goals for the day. Our guide listened to our comments and made solid choices. Good wines, better company -- it was a top-notch tour.

My husband and I enjoyed this wine tour so much. It was a small group of just 8 of us with Tieunis as our guide. He was friendly and knowledgeable. Although it was a rainy day and we didn't get to see too much scenery, we still enjoyed hopping from winery to winery. The first winery, Fairview had vegan cheese options and excellent wine to go with it. Lunch was delicious and the meal came with wine. By the end of it, I think we had sampled at least 20 different wines. This was definitely worth doing if you are visiting Cape Town.

This was an amazing excursion while in Cape Town. I would recommend it to all! The highlights were the first wine tasting paired with delicious cheeses and the 3rd wine tasted paired with Bruce’s delicious chocolates. I’m still dreaming of the blueberry one. Bruce was an excellent and knowledgeable guide. Definitely expanded my wine knowledge!

We had an absolutely fantastic time on this trip! Our guide was very kind and knowledgeable and drove us safely to and from each winery. Each winery served us fantastic wine and allowed us to enjoy cheese and chocolate pairings and try unique wines. The lunch stop was delicious, and we had the chance to try a traditional South African dish as well! Would totally recommend this trip! Especially for couples as the scenery you see is incredibly beautiful and romantic as well!
