Vineyards, wine, and history

This novel tour is a walk through three historic Cape vineyards as Matthew our guide recounted stories and anecdotes about their various owners. Multiple stops and three tasting sessions make it accessible to most people.

The history of Cape Towns Wine Industry

The Constantia Wine Walk with Matt is an absolutely fantastic experience. Matt’s deep knowledge of the area’s history, combined with great humor, provides a truly unique and insightful tour of the South Africa’s wine industry’s past and present. The wines are amazing, the company is just as good, and the immersion into the vineyards and their history makes for a unique wine-tasting experience. I highly recommend it 🍷

We did the Constantia Wine Walk and it was so special. Matthew’s knowledge and storytelling made this such a fun experience! We are both from Cape Town, knowledgeable on wine and history but this tour exceeded our expectations. No matter if you are a tourist in Cape Town or a local, this is definitely something to add to your bucket list!
