African Story Wine Tours (Tasting only on tours)
As I wrote already on "Get Your Guide": Nicht im Reisebus, sondern im klimatisierten Van mit 4 sehr angenehmen Mitreisenden erlebten wir einen abwechslungsreichen, stimmungs- und genussvollen Tag mit ausgiebigen Verkostungen ausgezeichneter Weine in drei Weingutern. Neben dem Genuss fur Gaumen und Nase boten die in Charakter und Ambiente sehr unterschiedlichen Weinguter jeweils zusatzliche Attraktionen wie z.B. malerische Aussichten, wunderschone Parklandschaft, Ziegen im Ziegenturm oder die personliche Handfutterung eines Strausses. Unser Guide Donovan hatte massgeblichen Anteil an der perfekten Organisation und den uns gebotenen Erlebnissen an diesem Tag. - Rüdiger
Fabulous day out! Our guide was so easy going and knowledgeable and the wineries we were lucky enough to visit were gorgeous , intimate and full of history. - Meryl
Will, our guide, was enthusiastic and informative. The four wineries we toured were all exceptional. Each winery had a different feature. We enjoyed history, the chocolate pairing, the lunch and the cheese pairing. - Brad
An absolutely phenomenal full-day tour with a private transport from Cape Town - we covered several beautiful locations in Stellenbosch, Franschhoek and Paarl, tasted some truly delucious wine, chocolate, cheese and local dishes, and learned lots of interesting facts and stories about the history of wine making in South Africa. Willem is a delightful guide. - Eva
The tour was everything we expected. Will, our guide and driver. was very knowledgeable and provided information without overwhelming us with too much detail. The wineries we visited were great - one old, one new, one large, one small. It was as good a sample of the South African wine industry as you could fit in one day. - David
