Boozy day in Stellenbosch - Well organised route with some excellent vineyards, including 2 of the oldest in South Africa. Marshall, the guide, was very friendly, knowledgeable, and attentive. He made sure no one was left behind and everyone kept to the timetable.
We would highly recommend Vine Hopper Eastern route and, in particular, Marshall.

Highly recommend - Loved the food and wine pairing. You don’t have time to leisurely taste 5 wines in an hour from drop off to pick up. Better to share if you do that many. It’s quite a high step to get into the truck. It was such a fun day and enjoyed meeting the others on the tour. Highly recommend.

A fantastic tour with an outstanding guide! - This was our first time in Stellenbosch and we thought we'd give this tour a try. We were EXTREMELY lucky to have Ronnie as our guide as he instantly made us feel like VIPs, and he was a wealth of knowledge when it came to the history and wine culture of the area. We would highly recommend this tour, and if possible, request Ronnie as a guide. He will ensure that this is an experience you will never forget!

Hop On Hop OFF - This truly is the best way to get a fell for a new city when you first arrive. The buses were plentiful, and came every 15 minutes. The narration was informative. And I thought the price for the day was more than reasonable.

Don't drink and drive let Vine Hopper take you - An easy, do it yourself hop on hop off tour. Driver basically drives the circuit of wineries every hour and you can come and go as you like. Very friends driver and overall a really good day

Eastern Wine Route - Not as good as the northern/southern route. We were met with a safari type truck, with open air seating. So, you had to climb up and down to get in! Really no interaction with the driver/guide as you get on the northern/southern route with Marchall!! Enjoyed the day, but could have been better.
