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.

Unique Wedding Confetti Ideas for a Memorable Celebration

Looking for unique wedding confetti ideas? Why not add a joyful and celebratory touch to your big day, marking the moment you and your partner begin your new life together? While traditional rice or paper confetti is timeless, there are plenty of unique options that can make your send-off even more memorable. Here are some unique wedding confetti ideas to add a personal twist and reflect your style!

1. Dried Flower Petals

Dried petals are a beautiful and eco-friendly alternative to synthetic confetti. Choose flowers that match your wedding colours, such as lavender, rose, or marigold petals, for a lovely burst of colour. They’re also biodegradable, so they’re gentle on the environment and perfect for outdoor weddings.

2. Herbs and Greenery

Fresh or dried herbs like rosemary, thyme, and lavender not only look lovely but also add a fragrant touch to the air. Greenery such as eucalyptus or ferns can also be used for a more rustic vibe. These are ideal for weddings in the countryside or vineyard settings, and they create a memorable sensory experience for guests.

3. Personalized Confetti Poppers

Create a fun and festive atmosphere with personalized confetti poppers! Fill them with mini cutouts of your initials, wedding date, or themed shapes like hearts and stars. Guests can pop them as you walk down the aisle, and it’ll make for a fantastic photo op.

4. Birdseed

If you’re looking for a wildlife-friendly confetti option, birdseed is an excellent choice. It’s biodegradable and perfect for outdoor weddings in gardens or nature settings. Plus, the local birds will get a treat after the ceremony!

5. Bubbles

Bubbles create a whimsical, romantic atmosphere as they float through the air. Guests, especially children, will love blowing bubbles as you exit the ceremony. They add an ethereal touch to photos and won’t leave any mess behind.

6. Lavender Buds

Lavender buds not only look pretty but also smell wonderful! When tossed in the air, they release a soft, floral aroma, creating a relaxing and memorable atmosphere. Plus, lavender has a long history of symbolizing love and devotion.

7. Sequins and Glitter

If you love a bit of sparkle, opt for confetti made from biodegradable sequins or eco-friendly glitter. You’ll get a glamorous and sparkly effect that looks stunning in photos. Just be sure to check with your venue to make sure they allow it, as some may have specific cleanup policies.

8. Feathers

Soft and delicate feathers floating through the air can create a magical effect. Choose colours that complement your wedding palettes, like white, blush, or gold, for an ethereal touch. Feathers also work beautifully for boho or vintage-themed weddings.

9. Biodegradable Confetti

If you love the look of traditional confetti but want an eco-friendly alternative, biodegradable confetti is a perfect choice. It’s made from materials that will naturally break down over time, so you can still enjoy the classic effect while being mindful of the environment.

10. Origami Shapes

Hand out small, delicate origami shapes, like hearts, stars, or cranes, to guests. They’re charming, and unique, and can reflect your personality as a couple. Guests can toss them, and afterwards, they make lovely keepsakes.

11. Natural Leaves

Leaves can be a lovely option for an autumn or woodland wedding. Use freshly fallen leaves or punch-out shapes from green leaves for a colourful, earthy look. They’re perfect for an outdoor setting and blend seamlessly with the environment.

12. Dried Lavender and Rice Mix

Combine the traditional rice throw with dried lavender for a sweet-smelling, unique twist. This mixture is both beautiful and aromatic, adding an extra sensory element to your ceremony exit.
