Half day tours include two wine tastings on different wineries with time for an optional lunch (own account) on a third signature wine farm. We've also included a wine pairing where you can try spectacular wines with homemade chocolate or traditional South African biltong.
A relaxed and rewarding day you will never forget!
Our carefully constructed routes among the vines and backroads allow for plenty of flexibility. It’s your day – we can shorten or lengthen the distance no problem. Let’s get to the first farm for wine tasting and build your memorable day.

5.00Absolutely fantastic day! The pick up on time and transport to Franschhoek from Cape Town made things so easy for us. And our guide Mandla was just one of the best! The e-bikes were in perfect shape and the route beautiful and fun. And of course, the wines! Mmmmm. 2 tastings, and at each stop you could do a bit of choosing which ones you would like to taste. Can absolutely recommend this company and this tour!
Wine tasting is better than wine wasting! 😉

5.00Wonderful bike tour guided by Abi through and passed the vineyards. He arrived on time and gave us a perfect overview of the Franschoek history and current hot spots in the town. Whenever you do this tour and see Abi, feel blessed and enjoy the ride!
Great tour

5.00Matt took me and my husband on a beautiful ride through some of the vineyards of Franschhoek and we visited two wineries. Matt was very friendly and accommodating and the staff at the vineyards (La Brie and Mont Rochelle) were very informative and friendly. We hadn’t cycled for many years but Matt tailored the ride to our abilities which was great - would highly recommend!

5.00Mándla was a great guide, he provided us a history of the area, it was very insightful. It was fun to ride the bikes in the wine vineyards and stopping in two wineries. The wines were so good, and in our last stop we had cheese !
Lovely way to enjoy the vineyards.

5.00Cycling is a really fantastic way to see the vineyards and try some wines. Abie our guide could not have been better, informative, fun and encouraging. Well maintained bikes and not a challenging ride.
Highly recommend!

5.00Abie was a fantastic guide on our half day tour. He gave us a long ride as we were really into the biking. We learned so much from him about the history of the area. We enjoyed the wines at Mont Rochelle and La Bri. It’s a great way to explore the area.
Absolutely Stunning Views

5.00This was our best time in Cape Town (so far) - and I would 100% recommend this for anyone that can ride a bike. Mike took us on the most scenic route through neighborhoods, farms, and vineyards. The tastings were great as well. This is the only way to experience wine country.
A must if you visit Franschhoek and like Biking!

5.00A superb 5hr experience! The value for money is exceptional. Door to door pick up/drop off plus bike hire with Matt (very friendly and helpful), private guide (very knowledgeable, friendly, helpful), x2 vineyard tours with excellent wine tasting experience included and an amazing lunch at Richard Branson's vineyard. 2/2.5hrs of fairly easy riding, with a couple of hills that will give a nice challenge to someone with average fitness. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!
