Pricing
What a day in the Winelands costs
One price per person, agreed before you book, covering everything that happens on the day. You will not be handed a bill at an estate, and there is no fuel surcharge waiting at the end.

Prices are quoted in South African Rand. Euro and dollar figures are indicative only — your card will be charged in ZAR, and the rate you get is your bank's, not ours.
Each barrel is chalked with what's inside it and when it goes to bottle. Standing in a room like this, while someone who made the wine explains what the markings mean, is the part of the day the tasting fees above are quietly paying for.
The fine print, unhidden
What the price covers
Included
- Door-to-door pick-up and drop-off — Cape Town or the Winelands
- All tasting fees at every estate
- Cellar tour and vineyard walk entry where offered
- Lunch at a selected estate restaurant
- A WSET Level 3 and Cape Wine Academy certified guide for the day
- A private vehicle — your group only, never shared
- Itinerary planning before the day, at no extra cost
Not included
- Bottles you buy to take home
- Drinks beyond the tastings and lunch
- Lunch somewhere outside the selection, if you would rather choose your own
- Gratuities — appreciated, never expected
That is the whole list. If something would cost extra, you will hear about it from me before the day, not from an estate on the day.
Most of what's on this page applies directly to our Stellenbosch wine tours — see that page for the full day-by-day itinerary.
Booking & cancellation
How booking works
Enquire with a date
Send through your dates, group size, and anything you already know you want from the day. WhatsApp is usually fastest.
We agree the plan in writing
Date, group size, itinerary, and price. A booking is confirmed once you have that written confirmation from me — not before.
Cancel free up to 7 days before
Full refund. Inside seven days but over 24 hours, half is refunded. Inside 24 hours, and no-shows, are non-refundable.
If we cancel, you are covered
Severe weather or a safety concern on our side means a full refund or an alternative date, your choice.
The full terms and conditions set all of this out formally.
