A wonderful wander amongst the vines and wines - Matt does a superb job of unlocking some of the secrets of the fascinating Constantia wine valley, all delivered with a humility and charm that is infectious and entertaining. This walk really was a delightful experience and a fascinating stroll back in time, learning wonderful insights and enjoying some delicious wines along the way too. Well worth joining Matt for a morning stroll...

Constantia brought to life! - This tour was one of the highlights of our trip to Cape Town. You could do a wine tasting at any of the wine farms in Constantia but you’d miss out on the history and stories that brings it all to life. Matthew has a great knack for storytelling and has just added some additional tours to his offering. We wish we could’ve done those too!

Such a fun and unique day out - This was the best tour we did when on our vacation in South Africa. Our informative and exceptional guide Geoff guided us through the history books of the Constantia valley, bringing to life the people, the wines and the way of life. The tour was made even more fun with a sip here and a sip there of vino. With the grand finale being a delicious lunch with more sips.

This is THE tour to do! - Fantastic mixture of facts, humour, scenery and wine. Matthew had a great depth of well researched and curated stories for the tour that kept everyone entertained and interested. I would recommend comfortable walking shoes and attire. Terrain is mostly flat in and amongst the vineyards. Highly recommended!

A MUST! - What a Wonderful day! Highly recommend! Does not feel like you walk 6km, as you stop along the way with Matt's highly informative Storytelling! and of course taste some great wine. Ending with the best Platter at Buitenverwachting.

A fun winelands walk - We so enjoyed the Constantia Wine Walk with Matt Sterne. Matt weaves together stories and anecdotes of the people instrumental in creating the Constanta Valley. Wine is served at three great wine estates and, after you have walked up an appetite, you end off with a splendid picnic platter. What a fun day out! Highly recommended.

Best way to enjoy the vineyards and delicious wine while walking - A very relaxing rewarding and enjoyable way to visit the wineries while walking and listening to amusing historical anecdotes about the area. Matt was very entertaining thoughtful and helpful. The wine tasting was very enjoyable and well organized. Walking amongst the vineyards was a special treat. Matt even picked us up from our Cape Town hotel in the morning which simplified things for us. Highly recommended
