A wonderful enjoyable wine tasting experience. - The tour guide Gordon was on time, very knowledgeable and responsive to our needs. The wine facilities visited were a good choice with a wide variety of products, and the personnel were all extremely knowledgeable of their wines. I would strongly recommend Gordon to anyone visiting Cape Town South Africa.

Wine-tasting extravaganza - We had a great day trying 20 wines in 4 different vineyards, with time to wander around Stellenbosch and a lunch stop in Franschhoek. Superb views and Morne our tour guide was very knowledgeable. Would certainly recommend if you want to dip into the local wines and have someone else drive!

Amazing wine tour with great guide! - This was one of the highlights for me of my time in South Africa! Shafiek was a wonderful tour guide and made sure to personalize this day for my friends and me. He asked what we were interested in and made sure to cater to our interests. The day started by taking a tour of Cape Town and the Shanty Towns. We drove through Stollenbosch, which was such a cute town. Then we went to 4 beautiful wineries and received 20 large pours of delicious wine - you will definitely be drunk at the end of the day! Afterwards, we stopped at the prison where Nelson Mandela was incarcerated. Shafiek was so kind, respectful, and patient!

Both guide and wine superb - very generous measures - We were picked up by Charlton who was immediately friendly and warm. Though he admitted he wasn’t a wine drinker himself he was very knowledgeable about the area and the places we were visiting. As we were picked up early Charlton took us to Vergenoegd Low parade of ducks. To see 80ish ducks parade was a wonderful sight. We then headed into Stellenbosch itself for a quick wander (20 mins) before heading to the four wineries. All wineries were set in stunning locations and had lovely wine but our consensus was that Delaire Graff was the favourite. Take note, every winery is very generous with their pours, so each glass is equivalent to a UK bar small wine. By the end we were asking the last winery to decrease the pour size as we were all def feeling it.
