Fantastic day exploring the wineries & sites around Stellenbosch!

We had a fantastic experience wine tasting and taking in all the sites on our private tour! Gordon was so kind and wonderful - very knowledgeable and willing to cater the experience to our interests. The value was great and we felt very well taken care of the whole day. Would absolutely recommend Gordon and this tour to anyone wanting to easily and safely explore the wine country surrounding Cape Town and have an exclusive private experience!

Great tour, great guide, great food, views and Wine!

The tour was incredible. From the start our guide Gordon was friendly, warm, knowledgable and energetic, creating great ice breaking conversations and that everyone felt included and excited. We were provided with excellent service at each of the vineyards, and interesting information about each location and Cape town as a whole, past and present. The food was all very good as well, with a good range of classic dishes and South African favourites. The wine was excellent and presented wonderfully, allowing for enough time to enjoy the wines, views and the company.
