Description
Embarking on a private wine tour in the enchanting Cape Winelands can elevate your experience in this breathtaking region. Whether you are celebrating your honeymoon, traveling with friends or family, or are a wine enthusiast, our tours are tailored to cater to everyone’s preferences and interests. A private tour grants you the freedom to be truly private, allowing you to indulge in your own activities at your own pace. You can enjoy a leisurely lunch at one of the top Winelands restaurants or opt for a more relaxed setting, perhaps at a picturesque wine estate, relishing the views, having a picnic, or exploring other wine regions. The choice is entirely yours! In this personalized and custom tour, we engage with you beforehand via email or phone to understand your wine preferences and interests. Based on your inputs, we curate a unique experience just for you. Once you approve the itinerary, we set everything in motion. Should you entrust the planning to us, we will guide you off the usual tourist path, unveiling our favorite hidden gems discovered over the years. We introduce you to exceptional South African wines and can incorporate various pairings such as Chocolate and Wine, Cheese and Wine, or even Champagne and Nougat. The possibilities are endless! To customize your day, we consider factors such as your wine preferences and aversions, specific estates you wish to visit or have heard about, areas you’d like to focus on, interests beyond wine-tasting, such as exploring other attractions in the Cape Winelands, or engaging in cheese and food pairings with wine. We can suggest routes that showcase what we believe to be some of the finest estates in the Winelands, recommend locations, Wine Estates, and unique experiences. Private tours offer unparalleled flexibility. We can venture into places inaccessible to larger tour groups, explore small boutique wine estates, concentrate on specific areas, focus solely on red wines, or seek out exquisite sweet wines. Whatever your desire, we can craft a tour to suit your preferences. These private tours can span a single day or extend over several days. They can encompass wine experiences and much more. Additionally, we have the flexibility to take you beyond the Winelands, incorporating destinations like Cape Town, Cape Point, Hermanus, and more.
