Start the morning off with a guided drive to Stellenbosch and visit our first farm which is a boutique wine estate with stunning views of the Stellenbosch mountains and experience intimate cheese & wine pairing with the wine maker when she is around. We head to the cuisine capital of SA, Franschhoek. We visit our second farm situated on the foot of the mountains for a world class wine tasting experience. Followed by a beautiful lunch and wine tasting at yet another award-winning estate. In Franschhoek you will have the chance to walk off your lunch, strolling down the main road. We head back over the stunning mountains to Stellenbosch for a guided drive through historic Stellenbosch and onto our last farm for a cellar tour, wine and chocolate pairing. Filled up and merry, we head back to Cape Town to be home at about 18:00pm.

• We visit 4 different wine estates in both regions (famous farms and some hidden gems only known to locals).

• A diverse range of wine styles.

We had a great informative and tasty trip into the wine region with Kobus! Really enjoyed all the places and the delicious lunch and treats along the way. Thank you ? - Tamara Miles
There are many companies offering 1 day wine tours (number of hours on tours does vary) around Cape Town and after studying decided to go with Wineflies. The tour itself consisting of going around 4 wineries all of different size with their own history to tell. We had an Air BNB in Camps Bay and the minibus collected us from right outside our location. Our Tour driver (Lord V) was attentive and had a considerable wine knowledge which he shared informatively. The whole day was great fun and all the wineries that we visited were in stunning locations. Along with the wine tasting the first offered cheese and biscuits, the second a dried meat option with the third including a high quality lunch overlooking the vines and local mountain scenery.The last wine tour included a selection of chocolates. We probably had one of the last tours before the Covid-19 virus put a stop to the tours. So wish all the people at the tour operator all the best during these difficult times. Once back up and running this tour represents great value and comes highly recommended. - Barbara & David Houghton
Absolutely amazing wine tour to Stellenbosch & Franschhoek! Marcus was absolutely fantastic and did a great job in introducing us into the great craftmanship of wine making. We visited mostly small, boutique wine estates (I absolutely loved Mitre's Edge, where we also met the owner herself!) where you usually don't get to visit with other tour operators! We had a great lunch and some free time to stroll along Franschhoek, which is beautiful! Absolutely great value for your money and I'd recommend WINE FLIES to anyone visiting Cape Town, and not planning to spend some nights in the winelands but still planning in a day trip. This trip will show you all the good spots, great wines, delicious food and good company! I travelled alone and met so many nice people on the trip that make you feel welcome from the start! :) Highly recommended! DANKIE Marcus for the lovely day! :) - Mareike Schumm
What a great day.I have done other wine tours in the region before and this day tops them all. I loved the added bonus of the cheese, chocolate and biltong tastings. - Margot Kalinowsky + 2
Had fantastic day with Lord Kobus&Dee. We we're definitely wine tasting novices but had a great laugh all day . The bearded one certainly knew his wines and passed this onto us in a interesting and informative way without ever sounding dull. We had a lovely lunch included at the Rickety Bridge Winery washed down with some lovely bouquets. The time just flew by and I would definitely recommend if you want to learn about wines but want to have the feeling you are going on a road trip with long lost friends. - Daniel Major
