“A lovely experience. Although, we were late and was left behind by the bus to the winelands because we got stuck in traffic (Cape Town traffic is horendous duting rush hour, no joke got stuck for almost 2 hours, hence was left behind but managed to get an uber to the meeting place). The winelands were all incredible from the wines, gins, views, staff, etc. This was my best wine tasting experience ever and would do it again for sure.”

★★★★★★★★★★4.7 · 261 reviews · 9h 30m · from $80

Review of Cape Town’s Stellenbosch and Franschhoek wine tour, with chocolate pairing, Tokara tasting, wine tram, transport, and practical tips.

“It was a great day from start to finish. We started our morning pairing x5 wines with chocolates, even though it was 9am at this point, we didn’t mind. They aren’t shy on portions, and we visited 6 wineries in total - which meant ALOT of wines (23 glasses to be exact). So if you’re a wine lover, and looking for copious amounts - you’re in the right place. The wine tram was great and the team onboard were equally accommodating and fun, especially with their complimentary tasters on board. Our guide Peter was great - really fun and attentive and very informative. He threw in loads of extra information…”
