This was a fabulous tour! Our tour guide, Basil, was wonderful! Extremely knowledgeable, kind and friendly . The wineries were beautiful and visiting the quaint Ductc town elwas a treat
Hello, Thank you very much for your feedback! We are delighted to hear that you enjoyed the experience. We hope to welcome you again on another adventure soon! Best regards,
The pick up time was an issue for all groups on this tour. The confirmation email and a follow up email had times that varied by 15-30 min. For example, our confirmation said pick up at 8:30, but the driver was there at 8:15 and proceeded to tell us how late we were and have delayed him. The following two couples had the same issue. The first couple that was picked up told us they were expecting to be collected at 8:00 but only got picked up at 8:35. Not a great start to the day. The tour guide spoke a lot during the tour, with a lot of nonsensical musing about things not related to the destination. We tuned out about 20 minutes in to the 1 hour drive from Cape Town to Stellenbosch. The wineries we visited varied from the itinerary on our confirmation. We booked to see Zewenwacht and Weltevreden. But on the tour we went to Zewenwacht and Marianne which was not great. My partner does not eat meat that’s why I specifically booked two estates that offer a cheese pairing and not the biltong pairing at Marianne. Overall, a subpar experience and we’d be unlikely to recommend to others.
Thank you for your detailed feedback. We sincerely apologise for the confusion regarding the pick-up times and for the way this was communicated. Please note that our confirmation email, which provides the confirmed pick-up time, overrides the time displayed by your booking platform. While guides may occasionally arrive earlier and check if guests are ready to depart, guests should never feel pressured or blamed for following their confirmed time. We also apologise that the winery selection differed from your confirmed itinerary, particularly given your preference for cheese pairings. Wineries may occasionally change due to operational requirements or the guide’s discretion, but we acknowledge that this should have been communicated more clearly. We are sorry that the guide’s commentary and overall experience did not meet your expectations. Your feedback is appreciated and will be shared with our team for review.
It turned out to be a private tour. Our guide/driver Zain was very knowledgeable and attentive. The first winery Zevenwacht - we had a tour of the cellar - very interesting, then tasting of 4 different wines, paired with cheese. Highly recommended! The second winery Marianne- beautiful views, but no tour of the cellar, tasted 4 wines, paired with dried meat from sori h ok, kudu and beef. The Florial wine was exceptional.

The tour company took the booking but contacted me a few minutes later to say the tour did not have enough people to go. I had to spend part of my vacation trying to figure out how to contact TripAdvisor to tell them the company had canceled and ask for a refund. Can't recommend the tour company, and it would be really helpful if TripAdvisor had better contact info available to users.
Thank you for sharing your feedback. We sincerely apologise for the significant inconvenience caused on this occasion. Please note that certain tours require a minimum number of passengers in order to operate. Unfortunately, for this particular departure, the minimum requirement was not met, and we were unable to proceed with the tour. We understand the frustration this caused, especially while you were on holiday and with such short notice. In situations like this, we would normally offer to move the booking to an alternative date or recommend a similar tour option where possible to assist with alternative arrangements. Thank you again for your understanding, and we appreciate your feedback regarding the communication process. We will review our listings and look at making this requirement more clearly visible across our booking platforms to ensure guests are better informed prior to booking.
My wife and I took this half-day Stellenbosch tour on the day that we were scheduled to depart Cape Town. Our guide was Rob Martin, who was a real delight, knowledgeable and interesting. If you take this tour, I would highly recommend that you request Rob as your guide. He picked us up timely at our hotel in the morning (in fact, he was there earlier than scheduled) and after a wonderful tour of Stellenbosch and two wineries (all that we had time for), he got us back to our hotel in plenty of time to collect our suitcases and get to the airport for our flight.

Very well conducted tour with Meinrad. He had extensive knowledge not only about wine but also about the history surrounding it. I would do it again.

We wished to arrange a 1/2 day trip to Stellenbosch from Cape Town to see the town and test the wines. Early 8.30 pick up from hotel was excellent and we met our driver/guide Jackie. Small group of 7 people.. 40 minute drive to first vineyard and we enjoyed our first sampling of 4 wines and cheeses. Then drive through Stellenbosch before visiting the second vineyard. Back at hotel by 13.30. Excellent trip when time is limited in Cape Town. Jackie was outstanding.

Two wonderful wineries, experienced descriptions of the wine, four at each winery, and a knowledgeable and safe guide and driver.
Amazing winery tour! Raegan was an outstanding guide—knowledgeable, friendly, and full of fun stories. The wines were excellent, the scenery beautiful, and the whole experience unforgettable. Highly recommend!
We had a fabulous tour of 2 wineries and a tour of Stellenbosch with an amazing young man called Zac, he was so knowledgeable.
