The Vine Hopper day ticket is the most cost effective way to experience the Stellenbosch Wine Route. You can decide on what you want to do on the different farms and pay for tastings, tours or activities as you go along. Some of the highlights of the Southern route include great wines at famous Neethlingshof, enjoying a Brandy Tasting tour at the Van Ryn Brandy Distillery where the cooper shows off his ancient art of barrel making, different pairings available at Spier, or go pet an Eagle at Spier Eagle encounters. Relax with beautiful views at Haskell or a red wine and port tasting at Alto. Kleine Zalze is always a great way to end the day with a delicious wine tasting overlooking the Stellenbosch Mountain

The Vine Hopper is a great way to still be independent and not linked to a group but having the comfort of being transported, enabling you to enjoy your tastings at your own time without worries of how you are getting home!
The Vine Hopper was brilliant. Very efficient and informative drivers and great vineyards. For future reference I should have booked a tasting in one of them as they were full and a certain member of their staff was unhelpful. However, another was delightful and fitted me in. I would highly recommend Vine Hopper to anyone visiting Stellenbosch. - Harvey Edwards
It was excellent. Picked up at our Airbnb address and then brought to the winefarms. We picked out two for tasting and one for a picknick. Marshall, our driver, is great and on time for the next stop. We felt very comfortable and in the late afternoon we were dropped at our Airbnb address. Super service - Wim Looijen
Enjoyed the day very much, comfortable minibus and good value..Be careful if you want to visit specific wineries and have limited time as routes are not daily. On the full day tour you need to drop one winery and was tempted to miss Van Ryn's brandy distillery but glad I didn't as very interesting and lovely tasting ambience. Spiers very good. I recommend experience. - John Owens
We thoroughly enjoyed our tour of the vineyards on the southern route. Marshall was a great guide and informative about Stellenbosch and the surrounding areas. There are some amazing views from the vineyards. We had a platter at Haskell with a great view. We would recommend this tour but dont try to do too many vineyards. - Angela Kirkby
Brilliant day from start to finish. Our driver, Marshall, entertained us throughout the day and was really flexible about about wheee we go off and which wineries we wanted to see to match our wine tastes. Definitely the best way to experience SA wines. - Janet Dunn
