The choice of wineries was perfect! We start with the oldest and full of stories, written on the labels and told by our Lejean guide, and we continue to enchant each visit, each with its own particularity. We delighted with the wines and also with cheeses, charcutaria and chocolates. It was a very special day!
Thank you for your support! I too had so much fun spending the day with your group
Wit have spent a fabulous time with Lejean. She showed us 4 beautiful wineries, explained their history, the differences due to location, soil etc. in a nice way and entertained us charmingly and witty during the wine tastings. We were able to approach everything according to our pace and we had the impression that Lejean herself enjoys bringing her city, her country and of course the wine closer to us. She is a very good motorist and we felt in good hands with her. We don't want to miss the day with her.
It was such a pleasure to spend the day with you both! I hope you visit again soon :-)
We have been on various wine tours (France, USA, Portugal, South Africa) and this has probably been the nicest one we have done. Why? It was the personal nature of the tour. It was just myself and my wife with the tour guide Lejean, who was super friendly and very knowledgeable. She took us to 4 wineries, which all had their own ambiance and style. We had between 4-6 wines at each venue, with one tasting being a cheese pairing and one being a chocolate pairing. We also had a lovely cheese and charcuterie platter for lunch - with more wine of course. The pace of the day was perfect, with enough time to savour both the wines and the venues. I would thoroughly recommend trying this tour if you like that personal touch, and a varied selection of wine farms.
I truly appreciate your kind words and the memorable day we spent together!
What a wonderful experience! Perfectly tailored to what we wanted. Each tasting felt well organised and staggered perfectly throughout the day. The whole day flowed, different scenery, experiences and beautiful wine (and food!). Lejean was the perfect guide. The right balance of information and fun. We also learnt about the history of Stellenbosch which for us, was a real bonus! Would definitely book again.
It was only a pleasure to have you on my tour! Thank you for the kind words
The tour with Lejean was a unique experience. She showed us beautiful wineries and told us a lot of background information. At the same time, we also learned a lot about South Africa. The tour was a lot of fun and you didn't have to worry about anything. We would definitely recommend the tour!
Vielen Dank! Es war mir eine Freude, Sie zu beherbergen und Ihnen meine schöne Stadt zu zeigen.
We had an amazing day! Our guide Lejean was extremely knowledgeable both about wine, vineyards and generally about Stellenbosch. The visits to the 4 vineyards were very well planned and we felt like VIP guests at all the farms. I can highly recommend this tour if you want to visit vineyards in Stellenbosch.
Thank you so much! I hope you visit S.A again soon…lots more wines to taste and explore! 😄
A fantastic day with our guide Lejean! Extremely interesting presentation not only of the history of each winery and its wines, but also of Stellenbosch in general, its history and people. Everything was prebooked, no lines, no tasting fees - just wine, delicious snacks and amazing landscapes!
Thanks so much for the sweet words! I had such a wonderful time with you on my tour!
We had a great guide, Lejean. She had made a nice selection of small-scale wineries that still make fairly traditional wine. She also knew a lot about the various wines and knew how to convey this to us in a very pleasant way. She also noticed when a particular wine was not to her liking which wine should be tasted. Also learned a lot about the fortunes of the past and present South Africa. We really enjoyed the day. Lejean wastherefore super thank you!
Bedankt Doortje. Het was een genoegen om de dag met je door te brengen!
Amazing experience with Lejean! She was a terrific guide for our Stellenbosch experience - well known of the region, the wines and the vineyards. Go for it if you’re looking for a crafted, handpicked wine experience - she knows so much and is eager to share her views on the wines, the history and all else. Also, she picks up some sweet spots that you don’t really get to know on a more “commercial” tour. Her car is great, she drives well and keeps everyone safe. She also takes great pictures of you during your time out. AMAZING experience, highly recommended!!
Thank you very much! Enjoy the rest of your honeymoon and South Africa!!
We had a perfect day with Lejean visiting 4 very different wineries. We got history of the region as well as each winery. I especially enjoyed the pairing with cheeses, charcuterie for lunch and chocolates for desert.
Thank you, Teresa! I too had a wonderful day with you.
