Great tour through Franschhoek, Stellenbosch & Paarl wine regions!
My wife and I booked a tour through another agency and by chance were assigned Martin as our private guide and so grateful we were as we had such a great day, a highlight of our trip to South Africa and the Wine lands.
Our private tour visited wineries in Paarl, Stellenbosch and Franschhoek. Martin, being from Stellenbosch with a long career as a wine maker made him the perfect guide, not only to teach us about the wine making but also educate us on the history and customs in the region and South Africa as a whole which we thoroughly enjoyed as first time visitors to the country. He provided great conversation and took the time to understand what we liked and what interested us.
Wine tasting at each location was relaxed and comfortable. Martin had great knowledge of all the wineries and wine varieties on offer and was able to add additional insights to what tasting staff at each winery provided.
Would highly recommend to anyone visiting the region and looking for a friendly and knowledgeable local guide who shares a passion for wine.

⭐ Competent, warm and excellently organized – 5 stars!
Our tour with Martin Stevens in Stellenbosch was simply outstanding! From the very first minute you could see how passionate and knowledgeable he is about presenting his region. Martin not only knows the most beautiful wineries and hidden highlights around Stellenbosch, but also tells exciting backgrounds about the history, culture and wine tradition of the region.
We were particularly impressed by his personal nature – attentive, humorous and perfectly organized. He responded to our interests and customized the tour so we had a truly unique experience. The wine tastings were excellently selected and we visited places we would never have found on our own.
If you want to experience Stellenbosch and its surroundings authentically, relaxed and at the same time at the highest level, Martin is in the best hands. Absolute recommendation – we are repeat offenders and we would book again at any time ☺️

An Exceptional Day in Stellenbosch With Martin Stevens - Wine and So Much More
Our experience with Martin was nothing short of wonderful. He arrived on time and, on the drive to Stellenbosch, gave us a really valuable backstory on the area and the places we'd be visiting. It was clear that he had taken the time to thoughtfully pair our specific interests in wine with the winemakers we would visit. We enjoyed every one of them, learned a lot about local wines and wine culture, and deeply appreciated the warm hospitality we received from Martin and all of those we visited. This was a top-notch experience, clearly made possible by Martin's personal background in winemaking and his longstanding, solid relationships in Stellenbosch. Highly recommended.

We can’t wait to book again
I have been on many wine tours, and this was a wonderful day. Martin brings the right amount of charm and knowledge to the day. His winemaking experience helps explain a lot, and his knowledge of South Africa and its history rounds off the excellent choice of wine estates. We were grateful that Martin chose smaller estates with fewer guests and unique wines.

Wine, sun and glorious views
A wonderful, sunny day visiting a number of wineries with Martin, each in a stunning setting. It was an informative, relaxed, wine-filled day. We enjoyed tasting the wines at each winery and marvelling at the views from each winery. Martin was extremely personable and knowledgeable about wine and the Stellenbosch area. A highly recommended trip. Thank you Martin.

Charming, well connected, wine expert and tour guide - Cape Town, South Africa
My wife and I hired Martin on the recommendation of friends to help us organize 2 days of wine tasting in Stellenbosch & Franschhoek near Cape Town. He was spectacular. As a former winemaker he listened to our wine preferences arranged a perfect wine tasting itinerary. His connections got us lux treatment at the wineries he booked and allowed access to tastings we might not have otherwise had. He is super well informed on a broad assortment of subjects including wine, history, culture, food, and current events. Finally, he was a calm driver and pleasure to be with. We strongly recommend him.

10/10 Trip
I would recommend a tour with Martin to absolutely everyone and anyone! We spent three days with him: one in Cape Town, one driving around the peninsula, and one in Franschhoek. Our trip couldn't have been more perfect.
My husband and I were excited to experience very different things: I wanted to explore the landscapes and wildlife of a new part of the world, while he was eager to dive into the city scene and sample the region's wines. Martin delivered on all fronts! He’s filled with historical knowledge and is a fabulous storyteller- engaging even me, who is not usually one for history. He shared all kinds of tidbits about the local flora and fauna, which made the drive across the peninsula even more beautiful. When it came to wine, he was incredibly knowledgeable and well-connected (much to my partner’s excitement!), even helping us get into a winery on a day they don’t normally offer tastings. Finally, he's also a great conversationalist, effortlessly engaging us in thoughtful discussions on everything from literature to travel to current events, which was the cherry on top of our entire experience.
Overall, our time with Martin was exceptional. He’s an incredibly well-rounded guide, and we’re already hoping to come back and explore Stellenbosch with him in the future!
