Two unforgettable wine days – perfectly planned, zero stress, outstanding guide - We spent two days doing wine tastings with Stuart, and both days were absolutely exceptional. Everything was seamless from start to finish — Stuart organised the reservations, managed the timing perfectly, and somehow made a full itinerary feel completely relaxed. Not once did we feel rushed or under pressure. Just the right pace, all day long.
What we didn’t expect (but loved) is how knowledgeable Stuart is about wine as well. Beforehand he asked about our preferences and then gave genuinely great recommendations for different tastes — from what we enjoy in a tasting, to the kind of estates and overall vibe we were looking for. It felt really personalised, not “one standard wine tour.”
Day 1 was a Constantia dream. We visited Klein Constantia and Buitenverwachting, and it honestly couldn’t have been better. Buitenverwachting was our absolute highlight — every single wine impressed us, and the tasting experience was genuinely top-notch. The hosts were fantastic, and the charcuterie/cheese platter was not only beautiful but also so delicious. We also had lunch at Simon’s Restaurant, which was exquisite — amazing food, a gorgeous setting, and the perfect place to slow down and enjoy.
Day 2 was just as strong. We started with Cape Point Vineyards (the views are unreal), and later Constantia Glen completely blew us away — fantastic wines, a wonderful lunch, and we even enjoyed the atmosphere of a birthday celebration. It felt special, relaxed and joyful — exactly what you hope for on a wine day.
Beyond the wine, Stuart is simply outstanding: calm, very safe driver, incredibly well organised, and genuinely enjoyable to spend time with. Great conversations, great local knowledge, and flawless execution behind the scenes.
If you want a wine experience around Cape Town that feels personal, beautifully timed and completely stress-free — book Stuart. We’d do it again in a heartbeat.

Excellent Winelands tour - The trip was really great. Stuart combined our wishes with his (solid) recommendations. We visited three wineries, plus had lunch in Franschoek (French Connection - great food!). He was a very safe driver and really looked out for us. Highly recommend this tour.

Best tour - Stuart is a fantastic tour operator - Stuart took our group of 10-12 to wineries in Stellenbosch and Paarl and the tour was fantastic. We were a large group but all of the reservations were made ahead of time and were never had to wait. We had a wonderful tasting at two wineries with a fantastic lunch at the Stellenbosch winery. The van and driver, Gary, showed all of us a fantastic time and Stuart is very knowledgeable about the area and history. Highly recommend Stuart’s tours.

Marvellous Experiences in Cape Town with Stuart!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! - Iam at a loss for words to describe the amount of fun we had. We came into the tour with very little knowledge of South African wine history and left feeling very well versed (in both knowledge and full to the brim with wine haha). A giant shout out to hands down THE best guide we could have asked for, STUART! He curated an unforgettable experience and made us feel so incredibly taken care of. I am lacotse intolerant and STUART provided me with an alternative cured meat pairing for the first tasting. I must say, the dark chocolate and red wine pairing was DIVINE. Honestly, don't think, just book this tour!
