Laura_D, Dec 2025
Loved the wine hopper bus and so convenient to get to the wineries near by and not worry about driving! Got to taste 4 different wineries and all had a different taste and feel with all offering tasting and food options. A great day spent in Stellenbosch.

A very effective way to visit multiple vineyards in a single day. It worked very well; the selected locations provided good quality wine opportunities, and the pace was perfect, with no hush and no time to lose.

Marshall, our host, performed his duties impeccably shuttling us to 3 wine estates. Vine Hopper is the way to conduct your wine tours.
Roy_M, Jun 2024
An absolute cracker of a day. Our driver, Marshall was one in a million, a great sense of humour, and an amazing knowledge of the local history and culture. If your in Stellenbosch I would thoroughly recommend availing your self of this tour and Marshalls services.

We had a lovely day drinking wine and our driver Jerome was great as he tailored the pick ups to suit us.

Marchell was absolutely amazing, he was knowledgeable and very attentive to his customers and he made it fun. All of the wine farms on the route was stunning and we had a blast.

Keaneroy, our driver, was helpful and did everything he could to ensure we had a great afternoon on the hop-on hop-off tour. We enjoyed tastings in two vineyards.
This is not a personalised tour and there are schedules to keep to. If you understand this you won't be disappointed.

Awesome Awesome stuff!!!
Marshall was very friendly and knowledgeable. Me and my wife met some a crazy group of ladies and she enjoyed her birthday immensely.
Response from Host, Jul 2022

We had a really good time, and our wine tour guide was very knowledgeable.
Christopher K, Jun 2016
Absolutely phenomenal! The driver was friendly and helpful, the wine was amazing and just getting to mix with both locals on the farms and foreigners on the hopper was great.
This is right at the top of my list of things to be done at Capetown. I can most certainly recommend it again and again.

the Viator or Vine Hopper staff were incredible! We accidentally started on the wrong route which enabled us to buy a bottle of Pinotage where the first Pinotage was bottled in 1961! and then our driver came back to tell us that we could switch to the correct route. Next was a brandy tasting which was just OK. also we could have used more food, even just cheese and crackers. we had lunch at the next stop and had a glass with our meal but didn't have time to do a tasting there. it was a lovely day and we highly recommend vine hopper! If you can choose the route with the Beyerskloof winery only open on certain days go and try the burger with Pinotage sauce!

Wat een enorm leuke enthousiaste chauffeur troffen wij ! Marshal is enorm bevlogen, heeft veel kennis en is een ware verbinder. Grappig en een goede chauffeur. De wijnboederijen die wij bezochten waren allemaal met een mooi verhaal en kleine Zalze was een laatste stop maar zeker een aanrader ! Kennis en kwaliteit en leuk om deze wijn nog veel terug te zien in het stadje Stellenbosch
Helga_W, Jun 2023
Weinproben waren gut, ein Weingut ist ausgefallen, an Brandy Tasting hatten wir kein Interesse! Der Fahrer war freundlich und zuverlässig!
Alwin_H, Apr 2023
Wir haben die südliche wie auch die nördliche Route mit Marshall gemacht und es war ein Traum. Marshall ist ein super Tourguide, mit dem es sehr viel Spaß gemacht hat und auch sehr informativ war! Die Weingüter waren ebenfalls sehr schön.
