How do I book a wine tour through Wine in the Cape?

Browse our tours or build a custom itinerary, then send an enquiry with your dates and group size. We come back to you personally — usually within a few hours — with a proposed route, pricing and availability. You don't pay anything until the plan is confirmed.

Can I build my own multi-day wine route?

Yes. Our custom tour builder lets you choose estates, stays and experiences across the Cape Winelands, then sends the whole plan to us in one enquiry. We'll refine transport, timing and bookings for you.

Do you arrange transport and a driver?

We do. Most of our tours include a private driver-guide in a comfortable vehicle, and we can arrange anything from a sedan for two to a mini-coach for larger groups. Self-drive itineraries are available too if you prefer your own wheels.

How far in advance should I book?

For peak season (December to April) and weekends, aim for 2–4 weeks ahead. Mid-week and off-season tours can often be arranged with a few days' notice. Last-minute requests are welcome — we'll always try to make it work.

What size groups can you accommodate?

From couples to coachloads. Private tours typically run for 2–12 guests, but we regularly plan wine experiences for corporate groups, weddings and celebrations of 50 or more.

Is wine tasting included in the price?

Most tour prices include tastings at the estates on your route. Where a premium tasting or food pairing is optional, we'll make that clear in your quote so there are no surprises.

Top Reasons To Visit Cape Town

30 April 2023· 3 min read

Planning a holiday to South Africa and looking for reasons to visit Cape Town? The southernmost tip of Africa is one of the most beautiful places on the planet, a paradise packed with exquisite scenery, pristine beaches, two oceans, and a plethora of attractions to keep any holidaymaker happy. Cape Town requires little introduction. It’s known as the city with just about everything, from award-winning wineries and urban mountains to sandy shores and a vibrant city centre. If you still need convincing, here are some reasons why you should visit Cape Town at least once in your life.

Stunning Nature & Year-Round Adventure when you visit Cape Town

Holidaymakers planning to visit Cape Town can marvel at the majestic Table Mountain from almost any spot in or around the city. It dominates the horizon around and is without a doubt Cape Town’s most famous landmark, standing 1,100 metres tall. Adventurers can climb the mountain to see the view from a different angle or take cable cars for an easy ride up. There are several trails ranging from three to 10 km that lead up to the top.

This city’s DNA is infused with adventure. From hiking and paragliding off mountains to surfing and shark-cage diving, there’s something for every thrill seeker. If that isn’t enough, holidaymakers on a visit to Cape Town can take a drive to Tsitsikamma National Park where they can bungee jump off Bloukrans Bridge, the 4th tallest bungee jump in the world.

World-Class Wining And Dining In Cape Town

The climate in Cape Town is ideal for grape cultivation. Even if you’re not a big wine fan, there are dozens of beautiful estates to visit and admire. Those who do enjoy the occasional glass, on the other hand, are in for a treat because our Cape wines punch far above their weight class, and they cost a lot less than those from other parts of the world. For the foodies out there, Cape Town is home to the majority of the country’s top restaurants with some of the most innovative chefs and talented restauranteurs. Whether you want to have a memorable evening, or simply a high-quality meal in a unique and trendy setting, along with an impressive view, Cape Town has you covered.

See The Big Five When You Visit Cape Town

The Mother City has everything that draws visitors from all over the world: a rich cultural history, vibrant nightlife, and world-class attractions. It’s all about location, location, location. Because there are a few wildlife destinations within a couple of hours of the hustle and bustle to satisfy the need to get close to the natural world.

The 10,000-hectare Aquila Private Game Reserve is located in the valley between the Langeberg and the Outeniqua Mountains. Members of the Big Five (elephant, buffalo, rhino, lion, and leopard) can be found within its borders, as can a variety of other species. Overnight accommodations are available, and safari options include guided game drives, quad bike safaris, and horseback safaris.

Additionally, De Hoop Game Reserve is another excellent location for more wildlife viewing. This private game reserve is located near the well-known Whale Trail, a popular backpacking trail with coastal whale viewing.

It’s A Vibrant City

One of the liveliest and most desirable areas in the nation is the central business district of Cape Town. In contrast to other CBDs, Cape Town has embraced the city as its genuine heart. This implies that you may combine the best elements of the urban lifestyle—including neighbourhood coffee shops, late-night pubs, and nonstop energy—with all the city’s natural features.

The Beaches Are Pristine

Cape Town has a ton of blue-flag beaches. The city is situated between two bays, and each of its shorelines has something unique to offer. There are beaches with waves for surfing, those ideal for sunsets, some with icy waters but stunning scenery, and others with slightly warmer temperatures. The coolest thing is that a spectacular beach is typically never more than a short drive away at any one moment.
