Amazing Day in the Vineland's! - Ordain picked us up at our hotel for a private tour of the Winelands. He has a very nice van, which was a comfortable ride for the day. On the way, he shared a lot of the history of Cape Town and South Africa which was very interesting. He took us on a detour through some of the townships, so we could see how the people in those neighborhoods of Cape Town lived, it was much different than what most of the tourists see in their visits to Cape Town and actually a very good to experience. In the Winelands, South Africa’s wine country, the wineries were just beautiful. We visited 3 wineries, Neethlingshof Estate, one of the largest producers in South Africa, Delaire Graff Estate, the most beautiful of wineries, and Rickety Bridge Winery in Franschoek, where we had a delicious late lunch. We also had about 30 minutes to walk around Franschoek’s central area, which was pretty quaint. All the wineries had very different personalities but were all very scenic with delicious wine tastings. I would recommend Ordain highly. He was personable. Picked a great variety of wineries for us to visit. He also shared his view of the history of Cape Town and South Africa, the challenges they face as a county and the history of the Winelands. It was a very enjoyable day.

Great day seeing the wineries!! - Enjoyed the day very much. Went wine tasting at some of the prettiest wineries I have every seen and ate at a delightful restaurant where the food was the best I have had in Africa.. Ordain is knowledgeable about the areas we drove through and made this a high light day for my time in the surrounding areas of Cape Town by seeing this part of South Africa. Saw several pristine European looking towns I would love to go back to and explore.

A superb day out! - A fantastic day out in a stunning part of a beautiful country. My guide, Ordain was superb and paced the day well with historical scene setting and context, a variety of tastings at various vineyards and a superb lunch. This tour and Ordain, in particular, are to be recommended. I speak as someone who has visited South Africa many times over the past three decades, this being my sixth trip to Cape Town, for example. I say with all honesty this is the best wine tour I’ve been on. Do it!
