Our experience with Martin was nothing short of wonderful. He arrived on time and, on the drive to Stellenbosch, gave us a really valuable backstory on the area and the places we'd be visiting. It was clear that he had taken the time to thoughtfully pair our specific interests in wine with the winemakers we would visit. We enjoyed every one of them, learned a lot about local wines and wine culture, and deeply appreciated the warm hospitality we received from Martin and all of those we visited. This was a top-notch experience, clearly made possible by Martin's personal background in winemaking and his longstanding, solid relationships in Stellenbosch. Highly recommended.

Martin was supremely...

Andrew_V, Aug 2025
Martin was supremely knowledgeable and took the trouble to thoroughly explore our tastes and preferences to plan the vineyard choices and wines. Wonderful day.

Best wine tour we’ve ever done!

Logan_A, Apr 2024
Had a wonderful time with Martin exploring the wineries, learned a ton enjoyed some really nice and off the beaten path wineries and saw a bit of the city as well. Would highly recommend!

Response from Host, Apr 2024

Thanks for the great review. It was a huge pleasure showing you our beautiful wine region. Happy it was such a beautiful day for you to appreciate the views. I also could not ask for a nicer couple to chill with and have some interesting discussions with. I am certain you will be back and looking forward to meet up again!

Just exquisite!

Vineel_M, Apr 2023
Martin was an incredible host. His vast knowledge of wine and the wine making process made the tour educational and fun. He selected a wide range of wineries that we thoroughly enjoyed. We tasted at least 20 different wines and must admit we were a bit tipsy at the end of it. Must do tour in Stellenbosch!

Response from Host, May 2023

Thank you so much for this great review. It was amazing to meet you both and to show you our wonderful part of the country. Had a super day with you

A great day exploring wine in the Cape Winelands

Patrik_A, Mar 2023
Martin asked for my preferences and any other request I had and plan the trip based on that (as well as asked me if it is ok). He picked me up where I as staying and arranged the full day. He is very knowledgeable in wine and shared and explain. A great experience

Response from Host, Mar 2023

Thanks so much for the kind words. It was a great pleasure to spend the days with you and to show you around. So glad you had a good experience!

Die perfekte individuelle Weintour

Beate_B, Mar 2025
Wir hatten eine Weintour mit Martin auf deutsch. Wir hatten ihm dazu unsere Weinvorlieben genannt und er schlug uns passende Weinhöfe vor, die wir dann selbst wählen konnten. Die Weinsorten auf den Höfen wurden uns dort vorgestellt, wir konnten wählen. Martin hat uns mit seinem Fachwissen über Weinbau, die Eigenschaften der Rebsorten, die Besonderheiten im Anbau um Stellenbosch und natürlich den Geschmack des Weines nahegebracht. Ein wundervoller Tag.

Response from Host, Mar 2025

Vielen Dank für die positive Bewertung! Es war einfach ein schöner Tag mit euch. Ich bin ganz überzeugt dass wir uns wieder sehen. Bis dann!

Wunderschönes Wine Tating in Stellenbosch

Chantal_M, Apr 2022
Martin ist ein ehemaliger Winzer, der uns zu den schönsten Weingütern in der Umgebung Stellenbosch geführt hat. Er wählt die Weingüter sehr bewusst aus und bringt viel Wissen und Erfahrung über die Weinkultur von Südarfrika mit ein. Seine sehr guten Deutschkenntnisse halfen uns die Äusserungen der lokalen Winzer zu verstehen. Wir können uns in dieser Region keinen besseren Guide vorstellen. Vielen Dank für den wunderschönen Tag.

Response from Host, Apr 2022

Heu Chantal. Ich danke Dir für die schönen Wörter und es freut mich sehr dass Ihr den Tag so genossen habt. Ich habe den Tag auch sehr genossen. War herrlich und wir haben viel gelacht . Viele liebe Grüße an Elias. Bis zum nächsten Mal Martin
