Another great wine tasting tour with Marlene

Second time doing a wine tour with Marlene. Both tours were an incredible experience. High quality clean vehicles, and Marlene is very knowledgeable when it comes to the local wine estates and will customize a tour to your liking. Highly recommend. Will hopefully be back for another tour with Marlene soon!

Victor_S · August 2026

Best of the best! So glad we chose this tour.

We highly recommend this tour. Cedric, the owner, and our guide for the day, was excellent. He tailored our visits to our wine preferences and made suggestions enroute based on our feedback. His knowledge of wine and all the wineries is exceptional, and every visit was seamless. We arrived and could immediately do the tasting without any waiting. Be prepared for great wine and mind blowing scenery if you let him guide your day.

Response from the operator: Hi Victor_S, Thanks for taking time out to put up this lovely review. It was an absolute pleasure spending the day with you guys and showing you around our beautiful wine country. Your support is much appreciated. Safe travels. Kind regards Cedric.

Fun Day of Wine Tasting

What a great day with Marlene! We were a group of 7 looking for a fun day of wine tasting. Marlene was a joy from the time she picked us up until we parted. Marlene gave us wine information we had never learned before and always kept us laughing. We visited 4 estates and they were all great. I would recommend booking this company for your time in Capetown. Communication was great and we had the best time. Thank you Marlene for a fabulous day!

Response from the operator: Hi tnlctygirl, Thank you very much for taking time out to put up this lovely review. I'm very happy to hear that you guys had a good day out with Marlene. Your support is much appreciated. Kind regards Cedric.

Amazing Day!

Setup with Cedric was professional and responsive. I requested Marlene after I read so many positive reviews. And I’m so so glad I did. The day exceeded all our expectations. Marlene was absolutely Delightful and amazing and our family will never forget the day we spent visiting special wineries. We are on a 2 week African adventure and I believe the day with Marlene will be our top highlight!

Response from the operator: Dear Cary R, Thanks for putting up this amazing review. I'm very happy to hear that you enjoyed the day out with Marlene. She sends her best wishes. Your support is much appreciated. Have a great day. Kind regards Cedric.

Private Wine Tour with Wine Expert to Stellenbosch-Franschhoek Wine Regions: questions travelers ask

Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Cape Town.

How much does Private Wine Tour with Wine Expert to Stellenbosch-Franschhoek Wine Regions cost?

+

Prices start at $2599 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 Private Wine Tour with Wine Expert to Stellenbosch-Franschhoek Wine Regions take?

+

Plan for about 8 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 Private Wine Tour with Wine Expert to Stellenbosch-Franschhoek Wine Regions worth it?

+

It holds an Outty Ranking of 82 out of 100, which we label "Exceptional". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 735 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable most popular in Cape Town, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

Can I cancel or reschedule Private Wine Tour with Wine Expert to Stellenbosch-Franschhoek Wine Regions?

+

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 Private Wine Tour with Wine Expert to Stellenbosch-Franschhoek Wine Regions suitable for kids and families?

+

The operator sets a minimum age of 18. Older children generally do well here, and families should factor in the 8-hour running time when deciding.

How far in advance should I book Private Wine Tour with Wine Expert to Stellenbosch-Franschhoek Wine Regions?

+

Around 257 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 8-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

Where does Private Wine Tour with Wine Expert to Stellenbosch-Franschhoek Wine Regions 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 of Good Hope and Boulders Penguins Day Tour from Cape Town, Table Mountain, Boulders Penguins and Cape point Day Tour, Wine Tour: Paarl, Franschhoek & Stellenbosch incl 3 wineries. 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.
