About this activity
Your bespoke tour will visit up to six wineries in the wine regions. Whilst lunch is to your own account, your wine guide will recommend and arrange a lunch venue for you.
From an educational perspective, the full-day experience will also provide an opportunity, subject to availability, for you to take a cellar tour, meet with the wine maker, assistant wine maker or viticulturist to get a personal perspective on the winery and its wine. We'll also give you a specialized tasting - wine with cheese, chocolate or similar.
Your guide will discuss the itinerary with you prior to embarking on your tour in order to take into consideration your wine and vineyard preferences. The option is available to modify the program as you travel.
There are many vineyards in the region and we are sure you may be familiar with many of them. Particularly the South African vineyard that you buy from at home. Please see below a selection of some of the special vineyards that your wine guide feel have something special to offer in order to help you set up your tour.

Another wonderful private tour through Viator. Our guide Roger met us promptly at our accommodation and together we planned out the day's activities. The thing about private tours is that not only are you learning and experiencing things related to the 'theme' of the excursion in this case wine, but you're also spending the day with a local, giving you the chance to learn about area in which you're traveling in a way you can't during a group tour. We had to cut our tour off after 4 wine farms - and tasting - all excellent choices from Roger only because we'd enjoyed so much wonderful wine in the 6 hours we were together - we could have gone longer had our palettes been willing. Definitely worth the extra money for a private tour.
Picked up from our hotel and Mark took us to our first tasting having talked to us to gauge our interests in wine and get to know our tastes. The day evolved from their and we tasted some interesting wines at a number of smaller boutique or family run estates and were hosted in a friendly and informative manner with historical insights to the area thrown in. A thoroughly enjoyable way to spend the day learning and appreciating some of the local wine.
