I had an amazing experience visiting the two beautiful wine farms and Stellenbosch. The tour was well organised and exceeded my expectations. Our guide; Doney, was outstanding. She is so friendly, attentive and so knowledgeable of the wine regions and she even took her time explaining the history of Cape Town. The atmosphere, the wines, and Doney made it a truly memorable experience. I would definitely recommend this tour.

This was the best experience ever! Our day with Doney was truly amazing. Her incredible knowledge about the region made the day unforgettable for us and our kids. I initially thought the children might be bored with a wine experience, but Doney’s engaging approach made it enjoyable for them too. Doney truly shone and made the day special for everyone!

Chris_B, Feb 2026
Our wine tour was truly amazing. NaeNae gave us an experience we will never forget. It felt like a home away from home, yet there was something uniquely magical about it.
There are rare moments in life when you meet someone who speaks to your soul, whether they realize it or not. She did exactly that. We felt an immediate connection — a kindred spirit and a genuine spark of energy.
Some people are more than just a tour guide. Some people are truly worth meeting.
We sincerely wish her happiness and success in all of her endeavors. In my personal opinion, she should already be leading something within the company. Allowing such talent to go unnoticed would be a real shame and a missed opportunity.
Response from Host, Feb 2026
Hi Chris
Thank you for such a deeply heartfelt and beautifully written review. 💛
We are truly moved by your words. Creating experiences that feel like a “home away from home” is exactly what we strive for — but the kind of connection you’ve described is something very special and rare.
NaeNae has an incredible way of connecting with people on a genuine level. Her warmth, authenticity, and energy naturally create those meaningful moments that go far beyond a typical tour experience. We will absolutely share your message with her — it will mean the world to know the impact she had on you.
Your recognition of her talent and leadership qualities is also deeply appreciated. We are very proud of the passionate, strong individuals within our team, and feedback like yours reinforces how valuable they truly are.
Thank you for seeing the heart behind the experience and for taking the time to express it so thoughtfully. We’re so grateful our paths crossed, and we hope life brings you many more magical encounters like this one.

It was great. Doney is a good host with a strong understanding of SA and its culture. I didn’t expect some of the historical context shared.
Response from Host, Feb 2026
Goodday

Mayowa_O, Feb 2026
Instead of trying to resolve an issue, the manager sent me an extremely rude message!! That dampened the tour experience
Response from Host, Feb 2026
Helo Mayowa
We would like to clarify that it is never our intention to come across as rude or dismissive, and we sincerely regret that our communication left you feeling disappointed. That certainly was not the experience we aimed to provide.
We would also like to gently point out that this was a scheduled group tour. While we always do our best to accommodate requests where possible, guests cannot expect the flexibility or exclusivity of a private tour when booking a shared group experience. All guests on board are equally valued, and we strive to ensure fairness and consideration for everyone throughout the day.
That being said, we truly regret that this situation dampened your overall experience. Your feedback is important to us, and we will reflect on it to improve both our communication and service moving forward!
Lara_C, Feb 2026
Getting picked up in the hotel and in a group of other tourists was amazing! There were only 2 farms (3 woyld be great) but the driver/guide is good and patient. She kept entertaining us all the time. Time spent in Stellenbosh village was really short. Half day allowed us to do other things in Cape Tiwn at same day
One thing I didn't agree was habing to pay the same amount to my 14 years old daughter and she doesn't drink of course! Must have pricing for children/youth below 18
Response from Host, Feb 2026
Hi Lara
Thank you for taking the time to share such detailed feedback — we really appreciate it 😊
We’re glad you enjoyed the hotel pickup, the small group experience, and especially the energy and patience of your driver/guide. It’s great to hear that the half-day format worked well for fitting in other activities around Cape Town too.
We truly value your comments about the number of farms, the time in Stellenbosch village, and especially the pricing for children and youth. Your feedback is important and will be taken into consideration as we continue improving the experience for families traveling with us.
Thank you again for sharing your experience, and we hope to welcome you back on another tour in the future!

This was a great way to sample several vineyards around Cape Town area. The vineyards were beautiful. Wine pairing and sampling was spot on.
Leticia made the experience even better by engaging with our small group the entire way. The time passed by so quickly. By the end of the tour, we were sad to see the other guests and Leticia go.
Highly recommend this tour.

Edna_N, Jan 2026
We had an amazing wine tour experience visiting two beautiful wine farms. Even though it was a last-minute booking, everything was well organized and exceeded our expectations. The group was small, which made the experience feel relaxed and personal rather than rushed.
Our guide was outstanding — knowledgeable, friendly, and very attentive. She took her time explaining the history of cape town and made sure everyone was comfortable and enjoying the tastings. The atmosphere, the wines, and the overall flow between the two farms made it a truly memorable experience for us as a couple.
We would definitely recommend this tour to anyone looking for a well-curated and enjoyable wine experience.

Renata_T, Mar 2026
Unfortunately, our experience was very bad.
They put six people in a very small car, which did not accommodate that number of passengers.
The guide (I do not remember the name) did not pass us any information about the wineries and the region - did only transportation.
To sum up, a walk that was very well evaluated was a complete disappointment. I do not recommend this company.
