Started well cos we were pickep up right from the Green Elephant and met a very friendly guide (Francoise) and a little bus full of like-minded people. Tour consisted of 4 wineries, a guide and explanation at the first, and then 4 "tastings" (half glasses) at each pit stop. Thought it was very good because time in the bus wasn't too long - at most 20 minutes between wineries; 40 minutes home at the end of the day. WQe actually weren't thst impressed with the wines 0 maybe not ideal to taste them one straight after the other but we did get chamapagne and brandy too. All in all a good day out, saw some brilliant views of area surrounding cape town. Would recommend drinking between stops if you want it to be drunken...
The tour started at about 10am leaving green elephant to have breakfast @ Durbanville Hills. Breakfast consisted of 8 glasses of beautiful wine - oh oh! After this I can not clearly remember everything, but I do remeber having an absolute blast! It was incredible fun and at the same time I learned a lot about wine tasting which was a bonus! I would definitely recommend this tour to anyone staying in Cape Town. A fanstastic day out!
The tour started at Durbanville and we had to taste white wine and red wine. The second one was Welmoed and also there we did the same thing. It was fantastic. Steve - the tour guide is very nice. I learnt a lot because it was my first time on the wine tour. They also have lunch in between so you don't have to worry about food. We went to 4 places and had tastings in each one. It was a great day.
The wine tour is also nice when you don't like the wine so much. It's a good opportunity to see another part of the beautiful landscape of the Cape region.

It was an outstanding trip but nothing special. Go there with some friends and you'll definitely have fun if you like drinking wine...
