As the owner of African Sun Tours, I grew up in this region, and this is not just a tour, it’s a place I know deeply. Every stop has been carefully chosen based on years of experience and personal connection.
Rather than visiting random estates, you’ll be taken to three of the best handpicked wine farms in the region, selected to truly spoil our guests with an exceptional and relaxed private experience.
Led by a local expert guide, you’ll enjoy insider knowledge, seamless pacing, and a more personal connection to the places you visit. Whether you’re a seasoned wine lover or simply looking to enjoy a beautiful day out, this experience is designed to feel effortless, immersive, and memorable.
Along the way, discover the story of South African winemaking, from historic estates to modern boutique vineyards, while taking in panoramic vineyard views and moments you’ll carry with you long after.

5.00Had this tour as the second day of a longer 3-day itinerary. Leonard did a great job tailoring the tour around what I liked, asking me my favourite wines, picking wineries aligned with my budget and adjusting the pace making sure I was enjoying every moment. He really cares about leaving you happy and doesn't mind adjusting the itinerary on the fly. Everything was super good, from the timeliness, to the vehicle, the pleasant chats and the amazing drinks. It was also nice seeing the areas where he grew up, felt a very different experience from the usual "standard" tours. Everything was perfect and, as an Italian passionate with wine and food, Leonard did an amazing job presenting me with incredible alternatives and making me learn about South African wines. Highlight of the day, Uva Mira winery, one of the best sunsets of my life.
The best cape town experience with leonard

5.00I did a wonderful once in a lifetime WIne tour in the outskirts of Cape own with the most amazing guide Leonard Botha from African Sun Tours. I am usually a solo traveler but this cannot be done alone and it was done in 5-stat style by Leonard and not even the Ritz Carlton or Four Seasons could do it better than him. The wines were amazing.. First we went to Babylonstoren, Haute cabriere in Franschhuek. Winieries you cannot miss!!! Then we went to Stallenbosch to an amazing restaurant The Fat Butcher. We walked around the lovely town of Stellenbosch. This is a tour that must be done with Leonard Bohta from African Sun Tours with out at doubt!!!
Amazing experience - Leonard was fantastic!

5.00I was travelling solo and wanted more than just a taxi service so managed to find Leonard of African Sun tours for a private tour guide. I am so glad I did, he is an amazing guide with so much knowledge of the area and understanding of recent and past history. The locations were amazing and Leonard made it a truly personal VIP experience.
