The experience

The first thing that hit me stepping out at Beyerskloof was the earthy smell of the vineyards: kind of sweet, a bit dusty, and totally inviting. Our driver, Pieter, gave us a quick rundown on the route and handed out a map that looked like it’d seen its fair share of wine stains. You can start anywhere along the loop, but I kicked off at Simonsig because someone in the group swore by their bubbly. Turns out, they weren’t wrong. The MCC had this crisp bite that woke me right up after the drive.

By midday, Delheim’s shaded terrace was calling my name. The place buzzed with locals chatting over cheese platters: felt more like a family lunch than a tourist stop. I lingered longer than planned. Their garden smells faintly of wild herbs and there’s always a breeze rustling through the oaks. Later on at Warwick, our guide pointed out some old Cape Dutch gables and shared stories about how these farms have been run by families for generations. If you’re into reds, Remhoogte is worth a stop. Ask for their flagship blend and you’ll see why people rave about it.

Top questions

How long do we spend at each winery?

You decide! Stay as long as you like at each estate. The minivan comes around on a set schedule so you can hop back on when you're ready.

Is lunch included?

No lunch is included, but most estates offer food options or snacks. I'd recommend grabbing something light at Delheim or Warwick.

Can kids join the tour?

Yes, children are welcome as long as they're with an adult. There are infant seats available if needed. Just let us know in advance.

Where do I get picked up?

If you're staying in Stellenbosch, we’ll pick you up from your hotel or guesthouse. Otherwise, meet us at 47 Church Street by the Tourism Info Centre.
