Constantia Half Day Wine tours
We booked up a half-day Constantia Wine tasting tour during our visit to Southend africa towards the end of september. We were originally asked to be at a particular hotel for 12 noon and would then depart for Constantia for two tastings - at Groot Constantia and then at Beau Constantia. Then, a day before the tour, we had a message from the tour guide, asking us to be at the hotel for 11.00 am - which meant that we had to cancel the activity we had planned for the morning (which we could easily have achieved with a 12 noon pick up time. The fact that we went to the wrong hotel was completely besides the point, but the guide and driver did not turn up at the correct hotel until 12 noon - so we co uld have done that activity after all. We were not best pleased about this, and told the guide this in no uncertain terms. She did not give a particularly good reason for her late arrival, so it just rubbed salt into our wounds. There were about 6 of us on the tour, and it also turned out that the guide didn't have a clue about wine - we were just taken to the two wineries, dropped there and she just milled around most of the time, checking that we were okay. It was utter chaos at Groot Constantia, there were far too many tourists and too few hosts and hostesses trying to serve wine (with not very much knowledge of the product) and conduct tours of the winery" It was, I should add a public holiday that day, so the crowds were understandable, but it was still chaotic. The tasting at Beau Constantia was much less crowded and much better organised, and the wine servers were much more knowledgeable. Beau Constantia is in a very picturesque location, so it was nice to walk around and enjoy the wonderful scenery.

Groot Constantia & Klein Constantia Tour & Tastings
The Constantia Half-Day Wine Tour & Tastings was a genuinely unique and fun experience! My host, Sipho, was quite friendly and very knowledgeable about both South African wine and the local Cape Town vineyard scene. If you can get your booking with him, you should do so hands down. We visited Groot Constantia and Klein Constantia, offering a diverse snapshot of what the Constantia area has to offer, both in terms of wines and vibes. Though I may have purchased more bottles of wine to be shipped home than my wife would prefer, the experience and tastes were well worth booking this excursion!
Response from the operator: Thank you for your wonderful review, Phillip! We're delighted to hear that you enjoyed your Constantia wine experience with Sipho. His passion for South African wine and the local wine scene makes every tour special, and we're glad he helped make your day memorable. We're also happy to hear you enjoyed both Groot Constantia and Klein Constantia-and hopefully those bottles of wine were worth it! 😊 Thank you for choosing One Day Africa, and we hope to welcome you back again soon.

Half day wine tour to two Constantia farms
It was a lovely day. The team communicated well before the trip. Sipho - our driver - was friendly, polite and punctual. The farms were wonderful. We did a cellar tour and chocolate and wine tasting at Groot Constantia and a tasting at Klein Constantia with a lunch afterwards at Peddlars. I would highly recommend this tour.

Constantia Half-Day Wine Tour & Tastings: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Cape Town.
How much does Constantia Half-Day Wine Tour & Tastings cost?
+
Prices start at R 200 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Cape Town usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Constantia Half-Day Wine Tour & Tastings take?
+
Plan for about 5 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Cape Town is not rushed.
Is Constantia Half-Day Wine Tour & Tastings worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 64 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.4/5 across 5 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Cape Town, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Constantia Half-Day Wine Tour & Tastings?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Constantia Half-Day Wine Tour & Tastings suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 5-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Constantia Half-Day Wine Tour & Tastings?
+
Around 2 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Cape Town can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Cape Town and add a light layer if any part of the 5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Constantia Half-Day Wine Tour & Tastings start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Cape Town within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Cape Town?
+
On Outty we rank every Cape Town experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Cape Town: Lion's Head Sunrise/Sunset Hike, Hike Table Mountain or Lions Head in Cape Town Like a Local, Cape Point and Boulder's Penguins Full Day Tour. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Cape Town?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Cape Town?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
What is included in Constantia Half-Day Wine Tour & Tastings?
+
Included: Guided Cellar Tour + Wine Tasting at Groot Constantia; Beau Constantia Premium Tasting; All Tasting Fees; Pick up and drop off from Cape Town; and Air-Conditioned Vehicle and Complimentary bottled water. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.
Does Constantia Half-Day Wine Tour & Tastings include hotel pickup?
+
Yes, pickup is offered for every traveler from 245 listed pickup locations in and around Cape Town. Be ready about 30 minutes before the start time. You can also enter a custom pickup address when booking.
What languages is Constantia Half-Day Wine Tour & Tastings offered in?
+
It runs in English. Pick your language when choosing a date and time, as not every departure runs in every language.
Will I get instant confirmation and a mobile ticket for Constantia Half-Day Wine Tour & Tastings?
+
