A really good day out where you visit several wine estates for tastings. It’s good value as you can spend as little or much as you like at each tasting. Transport in the “safari-style” vehicle is good fun and the driver is quite flexible in the pick up time from each winery.

All of it was fantastic! Alfredo was an exceptional guide and driver. Nothing was too much trouble and he was exceptionally kind to my disabled mother.
I , as a Cape Town local, had never experienced Bosman and left our tour up to Alfredo and he took us there and it was a truly memorable event. Khali, our sommelier was so knowledgable , warm and accommodating and a true credit to the estate as were the rest of the staff. All in all a highly recommendable day and if time allows, we would do it twice to spend more time at all the estates in the valley.

Our second time with Hermanus Wine Hoppers up the beautiful Hemel en Aarde valley was as superb as our first trip a few years ago. Wonderful wine at Bouchard Finlayson, La Vierge and then tapas pairing at Creation. All amazing and made even better by our fantastic driver Thobela who really looked after us and took great care of our wine purchases! We will be back. Thank you Wine Hoppers for making this so easy and doing such a great job to promote the amazing vineyards of the Western Cape.

Your R350 is paying for the experience and for VIP treatment. No wine or other services are included, it is only about the experience and the driving. Our driver, Tobela was great but we were so stressed when he arrived we hardly enjoyed the first wine farm. The communication from this company sucks. We were left waiting for half an hour in the sun despite being told that they are “five minutes away”. We then had to drive with the 11:30 booking. Luckily there was enough space. The week before this, two of our friends could no longer make it and I was assured they could get their money back. I have sent four emails and I have not had a single reply. Someone in the company is not coping with their job and their incompetence in letting the entire company down. Also, when using this company please make sure to make bookings at the wine farm to avoid disappointment. We met a German couple who were told by the company it won’t be necessary to make a booking the day before for Creation wine farm but when they booked on the day the wine farm was fully booked. What a pity. I would not recommend this company to anyone.

Tobela picked us up from our hotel and took us up the Hemel en Aarde Valley, stopping at Bouchard Finlayson, La Vierge and Creation Wines where we had lunch. We hsd a great time wine tasting and learing about each wine. Tobela was very informative, made great suggestions about which wineries to stop at and looked after us very well. I really appreciated not having to drive and being able to enjoy the wines.

Thoroughly enjoyed our Wine Hopper tour. They were helpful, attentive and even made a lunch booking for us at one of the wineries. They called ahead when our wine stops ran a little longer than expected to make sure the next winery was still open. Their drivers were personable and really felt like they cared about us having a good time. Don't miss out on the wine and chocolate pairings at WhaleHaven wineries! Lunch at La Vierge or Tapas at Creation winery.

This is a service that takes you on the wine route outside Hermanus in a safari vehicle. The staff are friendly, accommodating, enthusiastic and well informed. The timing of drop-offs and pick-ups allow you a lot of freedom. We met fantastic people who were on the trip with us and spent the day tasting delicious wine at breathtaking locations with them. I'd really recommend this for anyone that loves wine. Make sure not to miss the views of Sumaridge. Don't drink and drive!

We loved our experience! The staff went well beyond what was expected. It was fabulous not to have to worry about who was going to be the designated driver. We were able to fit in five wineries and came away with a whole new appreciation for this wine region and South African wines in general!

Friendly and helpful staff. Vehicles clean and well looked after. Drivers careful and courteous. Cost for a day pass is R200 per adult and well worth this. A warm jacket advisable if you travel with the sides up. We ended up visiting only three of the wine estates, Bouchard Finlayson, La Vierge and Sumaridge, because we ran out of energy. Next time we will try the other estates!
