Additional Information

South Africa’s wine production tradition dates back to 1659 when the Dutch and French Huguenots brought vine cuttings to the Cape. This delicious wine has been enjoyed by historic figures like Napoleon Bonaparte. The tour of the wineries stands as the second favorite Cape Town tour after the Cape of Good Hope. The Cape Winelands are regarded among the most breathtaking country landscapes globally, offering captivating views of mountains, vineyards, and the sea. The wineries, each with a significant historical background, display stunning Cape Dutch architecture amid beautiful gardens. The tour also includes visits to contemporary buildings and top-tier eateries like Delaire Graff Estate, Tokara, and others. Our aim is to urge wine enthusiasts not to miss the chance to explore Cape Town’s vineyards, learn about our exquisite South African wines, and appreciate the well-maintained winelands where our grapes are cultivated and wine is created.

5-Star Experience, Book This!! - My husband and I did the full-day private wine tour with Oscar and could not speak more highly of our experience. Oscar knows everywhere and everyone and was able to get us the best tasting experiences at all three wineries. He allows for a flexible itinerary and gives you recommendations for lunch, but gives you the flexibility to go wherever you’d like. Oscar is also like a private historical tour guide, and talked us through the history and significance of places we were driving through. Overall, the entire experience felt very white glove and we were sad to say bye at the end of the day as Oscar felt like a friend by the end of it. We cannot wait to come back and do this again with him! Thank you, Oscar!

Wine Tour & Siteseeing Tour with Oscar - Our group of four had the pleasure of spending two days with Oscar in the Cape Town area. He guided us on a wine-tasting tour in the Stellenbosch region. The wineries and lunch he chose for us were magnificent! Great wines, fabulous lunch, and exceptional views! We also spent a day with Oscar touring through the Cape of Good Hope, Boulders Beach, an ostrich farm, and several coastal viewing areas. Oscar is incredibly knowledgeable about the area, knows about many hidden gems, and is extremely personable! It was a true pleasure spending time with him and we feel incredibly blessed to have met him and had him as our personal tour guide.
