Try something different in beautiful surroundings - Had a great day out travelling around the wineries tasting the new and unexpected. Our guide was a wonderful host for the day and we thoroughly enjoyed her company.
I was a bit apprehensive about having too much, and I'm definitely not a spittoon gal (sacrilege!!) , but this tour is well paced, enough so that I felt OK to indulge with more at lunch. We were also very lucky that our tour ended up being private too.
I learned quite a bit, tasted things I enjoyed that I didn't expect to, seen some beautiful scenery and had some great food. We bought a few bottles as we went, but didn't feel any pressure to purchase. They all made it home safely with no casualties in the luggage as we bought some little padded sleeves to protect them. Really enjoyed our day and felt it was great value for all that we visited and tasted. Was definitely a bonus to have a knowledgeable guide and driver so you can taste as much or as little as you fancy

A lovely introduction to South African winelands - Willem gave us a lovely day out , visiting 4 different wineries, all with their own different stories to tell, different wine styles and beautiful locations. He's both knowledgeable and fun. I thoroughly recommend this tour, or contacting him to arrange a more personalised trip , but it's worth taking his advice rather than saying exactly where you want to visit

The best wine tasting tour - We were collected by Eileen punctually and found we were the only two people on the tour that day. Eileen asked us about our expectations and took us to 3 wineries during the day. At each of the beautiful wineries she selected a series of wines making sure there was at least one less usual wine choice per winery. We had a lovely lunch at the Mont Marie restaurant between wineries 2 and 3.
The knowledge of the staff at the wineries and Eileen’s experience really made the day for us.
We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend this tour to anyone.

Fabulous Day Trip - We ended up having a very personal experience with one other lovely couple for the day. We were picked up in Cape Town by Willem who assisted us with our luggage as we were moving to a hotel in Stellenbosch. The selected wineries were really beautiful, with fabulous wine and a cheese pairing at L’Avenir where we were also taken on a tour of the cellar. The lunch location was appalling service waiting >30mins to even get table water, but to no fault of the tour operator.
Had a fantastic day and would be sure to go with Willem again if we are back in the region.

Great wines and a great guide - The tour was amazing. Excellent places, excellent wines and, of course, an excellent guide. There were only two of us on the tour this time, so in fact it turned to be a private tour for the price of a group one :) The wineries were selected according to our tastes and it was a one hundred percent hit. Especially we liked the tasting with the cheese pairing in L'Avenir winery. To bottom line it, the tour was totally according to what was advertised - custom-tailored tour on the small family-owned wineries with a friendly and knowledgeable guide. I will definitely recommend it to all my friends who goes two South Africa and interested in wines.

A day out to remember - A magnificent day out. Our guide George was great company and really.informative. The vineyard locations were spectacular. Variation and quality of the wines was superb. The wine and cheese match up was a particular highlight. Small group tours for the best experience

Amazing experience - Eileen was a really competent guide, she was explaining all about stellenbosch and choose amazing vineyards. We loved so much I would 100% recommend her. It suppose to be a small group and surprisingly it becomes a private tour as it was just me and two friends.
The wines and the explanations were amazing.

Stellenbosch wine tasting - Expected the day to be with a group but ended up as a private personal tour for my wife and me. Wow what a fantastic day. Our fabulous guide George Green made the day so perfect with his knowledge and great Conversation. The wines we tasted and the Venues were terrific. Lunch at the Mont Marie brilliant. Thank you for a great day.
