Fantastic day with Gerhard
Great day visiting Stellenbosch wineries. Gerhard was our guide, we couldn’t have asked for a more knowledgeable or friendly guide, he certainly made the day good fun and we enjoyed his company. Felt like old friends by the end of the day. Would highly recommend

Disappointing
Unfortunately, there were only 3 wine tastings, at below-average to mediocre wineries, which were also not family-run. At no winery were we told anything about the winery, let alone there was a guided tour of the winery or the vineyards or the cellar. At the first winery we just sat in the garden and we were poured a single glass of wine every 15min(!!!) and in between just nothing happened. All wine tastings could also have been done privately without any problems for sometimes under 5€. Our guide Pamela at least still told between rides. Conclusion: Absolutely disappointing and also too expensive for the performance offered, even by European standards.
Operator response
Hi Lukas,
Thank you for your review, our Daily wine tour changes every day, we do not visit the same wineries over and over as other tour operators do. We choose the smaller less commercial vineyards away from the crowds. That said I need to answer some of the criticism. One thing the wine does it create debate and you either like a wine or you don't, that means your palate is not to that specific taste, it does not mean the wine is below average . As an example at the first "Family owned" vineyard they visited 3 of the wines on their portfolio rated 4 .5 stars out of a Possible 5 in the Platter Guide the remainder 4 out of 5 stars
At the next vineyard tasting is done next to a lake, ( a great alternative to sitting inside a building I guess) a pairing of 5 wines and 5 cheeses. 3 out of the 5 are rated 4.5 out of a possible 5 and one was voted the best Pinotage in South Africa! I guess not everyone's palate is the same.
The harvest season in South Africa has not begun so a cellar tour would involve looking at a whole lot of empty stainless steel tanks. We do do cellar tours in season. At most of the wineries, the wine ambassadors introduce the wineries' history before commencing with the tastings.
We do our best to ensure everyone has a great day out on our tours and I am sorry it was not up to Lukas expectations.
After discussing the day with the guide she mentioned that the group spent the day talking in German and she felt uncomfortable intruding/interrupting the conversation

The best way to discover the Wine Estates of Stellenbosch
This activity was absolutely incredible. Aileen knows everything about wines and about the wine estates in Stellenbosch. In addition, she's a very pleasant person. The 4 wine estates that we visited were extraordinary, both in terms of beauty and quality of wines.
Operator response
Hi Joao,
Thank you for taking the time to write a review of your day on our Daily Wine Tour. Eileen certainly knows her wines and has been guiding tours since 2007, the guides know where to go to ,avoid the crowds and where the special places are :)
