Customer Reviews

Whenever I am Capetown I make sure to go for a wine tour with Wine Flies. I love the familiar style of the company. They really try to accommodate you. The guides are all amazing, and so are the wines. A must! - Diana Szanto


We had a great day visiting 4 wineries in the Stellenbosch Franschoek wine areas. The wineries apart from Villiera were all small boutique wineries. We tasted/drank some great wines and bought several bottles to drink during the remainder of our stay. We saw the beginning of the grape harvest at Valeria and had an interesting tasting with cheese at the second winery and with chocolate at the last. All in all a great day. - Simon Ross Carey


This wine tour in small groups, with a guide who knows everything about South African wine, is something every wine lover should enjoy. You'll get to know the history of winemaking in SA, beautiful wineries, and very delicious reds and whites (plus more delicious stuff). Absolutely recommendable. - Petra Plaum


If you would like to see a lot of wineyards and taste a beautiful selection of south african wine with a bunch of fun people go with the full day wine tour. We liked the way to travel with a groupe through the south african wine land and enjoying a day full of delicious wine and nice chats. - Nicole & Reto


What a wonderful day out visiting 4 superb wineries. We got to taste a totally amazing array of different wines. Our guide for the day was simply outstanding, he explained everything so well. Each of the places we visited were simply stunning. The lunch we had was also very good. We had more than enough time to enjoy each place. No rush to leave and no pressure to buy any wines. I would highly recommend doing this tour, you won't regret it - Douglas Waterson
