“Thank you again for such a wonderful and memorable tour! Very very special.”

Tim Armitage, October 2026

“We so loved our time with you (even in the rain) and cannot quit talking about the wonderful and diverse experience you provided. The camaraderie we shared, and your great sense of humour certainly made our time with you memorable. Many thanks for an amazing experience and we certainly hope to see you again.”

Lynette Colman, May 2026

“We spent an amazing day with Ronnie! He was a wonderful guide and driver — attentive, flexible, and genuinely passionate about creating the best experience for us. What we loved most was how he tailored the route to our interests and avoided overly commercial spots, instead introducing us to hidden gems and local wineries full of charm. He shared plenty of insider tips and stories that made the day feel truly authentic. Thanks to Ronnie, we saw so much, learned a lot, and had an unforgettable day!”

Margarita, February 2026

“Our entire group loved the wineries that we visited, and Postcard Café was perfect for lunch. In fact, I have family here in the states that want to do a wine country trip next year. I've done Napa & Sonoma before but from the limited number of wineries we saw in Stellenbosch, the views are much nicer there. I can't wait to return.”

Jennifer, November 2025

“Just back from our wine tour & wanted to let you know that both my partner, Elizabeth & I had an amazing day. Radheeka was a brilliant guide; so knowledgeable & great to interact with. She really looked after us & was first class. The whole experience from start to finish was great. The wineries you recommended were excellent, lunch at Delaire Graff was brilliant & to get a tasting hosted by Ken Forrester himself, just made the day!”

Iain Semple, October 2025

“We just wanted to thank you for sending Ronnie, he was a wonderful driver and such an experienced guide! His passion for the territory, his vast knowledge about the history of it, and each and every different wine farm were impressive indeed. He showed us the most authentic wine farms, and he explained everything about them, the culture, and the traditions. Everyone knew him and greeted us with a big smile every time we entered the farms!”
