Great bike ride with culture and wine 🍷♥️ - We had a wonderful morning on a bike in Stellenbosch with our fantastic guide Marshel. First a tour of the city with some historical guidance in a very nice way. Marcel is knowledgeable,funny and nice!
First a visit to a nice little shop, which really had it all, and then bike on up to the mountains for wine tasting No 1 in a magically beautiful place. Then back to town and wine tasting No. 2 with good chocolate and wine tasting and guidance on how the wine is made.
A really lovely day that is highly recommended. Good value, fun, tasty and interesting.

Wine, mountain views and a gorgeous bike ride! - We had such a great time with Michele last Friday! It is a GORGEOUS bike ride up to the two vineyards - through the vines at Lanzerac and then up a slight hill in the mountains up to Stark-Conde, which made it feel like you kind of earn the mid-morning wine drinking haha. The outdoor tasting area at Stark-Conde is beautiful on a little pond with the mountains in the backdrop. The tasting at Lanzerac is actually a wine and chocolate pairing and it was so good!
Michele was kind, informative, made good conversation and flexible based on our interests. I would definitely recommend going on this tour with him!

Bikes and wine - Just back from a wonderful day cycling and learning a little more about Stellenbosch, the cycling onto a couple of wine estates. Our Guide was Marshall and such a great guide around Stellenbosch, and great as a leader up to the wine farms. We had e-bikes which made it a little easier for us, but the pathways were in good condition and the hills not so bad. All in all a really great day and would recommend it to anyone.

Fab Day out ! - Book with Confidence! - Just back from a 5hr expedition including 2 tastings and winery tour of Stellenbosch. There is a reason they score 5/5 on the reviews. Fab day out! Look no further this is the one you have been looking for! You will not be disappointed! For the not so energetic or just plain lazy like me, request an ebike when booking to avoid disappointment. Thank you Sevi & Nick for an awesome day . Mr Dudley

Mountian Biking day for my birthday - Excellent day , fantastic weather , very knowledgeable guide and insight to the history of Stellenbosch.
Mountain bikes were of good quality and maintained plus safety helmets supplied.
There were some hills and off-road en route , 17km in total but non too taxing.
Lovely stops for two wine tasting /pairing , hence highly recommend.

On a bike in Stellenbosch - Great tour including a trip around town to see the sites followed by a visit to 2 vineyards. Our guide (Seve) was very knowledgable and provided many interesting insights about the town and the Western Cape. The vineyards were spectacular and the wines tasted were excellent. A great way to spend over 4 hours, we had a lovely time in the company of some lovely people.

Great wine tastings, great guide, but not for mountain bikers... - One star for the great winetastings at beautiful estates, another for the outstanding guide Marcell (hopefully spelled correctly) and another for the beautiful Stellenbosch itself, through which we drove listening to the guide's stories. However, I was very disappointed by the route and its distance. The issued mountain bikes, which also stoked the corresponding touring character with me, did not do their kind justice. 90% of the route goes over asphalt of the road or a bike path next to it. I had expected this to be much more natural, especially since this also resulted in some pictures here (on request, however, these are uploaded incorrectly here and from another tour). It wasn’t so cool for us, but if you don’t focus on biking, but to get from Weingut A to Weingut B quickly and easily, you could/will like the tour. That's what the many reviews say before...
