Missed trip
Sharon_M, May 2024
It was not clear about the picking up instructions from the various collection points and therefore missed the collection transport and was not able to do the tour
Response from Host, May 2024
We are very sorry that you missed the tour! All other guests had a super day out in the wine country. Besides advertising the exact pick up points & times on the tour listing, we repeat this information on the voucher. We also send a personalised email the day before the tour, again listing each pick up point exactly with all details. I am not sure we can do anymore? All the same, you missed a great tour. We hope to see you back on board sometime soon.
Very good wine tour.
Scott_P, May 2024
The wineries visited were all first class with great wines. The Shiraz was very nice. At each of the three stops the tables were already set for our group and the wine was promptly poured and explained. Plenty of interesting information give during the bus ride. One of the best wine tours I’ve been on. Highly reccomend.

The best wine tasting tour in Cape Town!!
Emily_P, Apr 2024
Wow what a tremendous value for a quality wine tasting tour. Louis and Mohamed are the A team, keeping us organized and on schedule to enjoy three incredible wineries and wonderful wines in the three regions. Louis is a treasure of knowledge but what’s best is his ability to deliver them in both an educational and entertaining way. The wine tasting was of high quality complimented with charcuterie and chocolate pairing. Lunch was fantastic. Such a wonderful time, thank you Louis and Mohamed!!

Not the best wines, but the tour itself was good if you want to see the wine region
Orhun_C, Apr 2024
It was so crowded in Stellenbosch, we had to sit side to side very close in the first vineyard. The guide in that vineyard couldn't even try to make her voice heard by everyone and the information about wine making was so fast that nobody could understand a single step. Some of the wines were good there, some of them on average. In Franschhoek, the food was so good and delicious. The wines were on average again. In Paarl, the chocolates were super, but the wines were terrible... The places had a good lake view, that's all. The tour guide was funny but quite talkative indeed...
Response from Host, Apr 2024

We apologize for the crowded conditions in Stellenbosch and for any difficulties you encountered in hearing the guide and understanding the information about wine making. We appreciate your honest assessment of the wines at each location. It's great to hear that you enjoyed the delicious food in Franschhoek and the chocolates in Paarl. We understand that the quality of the wines varied throughout the tour. We appreciate your feedback about the tour guide and will take it into consideration for future improvements.
