We went on a wine walk with Cedric, who was very knowledgeable and engaging about the area's history. The walk itself is not too difficult with the frequent stops for wine tasting and lunch. We did the wine tram the day before, which was fun, but you get much more out of the wine walk. I would recommend doing both if you have time.

+40 photosWhat a lovely way to see Franschhoek. I highly advise you take this “tour”. We started at at 9am with a short stroll around the town with a bit of history. Then up the street to the base of the mountains where we visited 3 winery’s and tasted several wines. Then a short tuk tuk ride to Lunch which was on a lovely vineyard. and then a quick walk back to where we started. It was about 6 hours total but the time flew by and we learned a lot about SA wine and food in the region. 10 out of 10!
HI charles, thanks so much for the wonderful review, we are so glad you had a good time!
We started at the old church which was the most fascinating part of the tour for myself. The views were breathtaking, company & the conversations were even better . We were looked after very well by the hosts Matthew & Michelle , the Franschhoek tours will keep getting popular as the summer approaches however this walk is absolutely perfect for winter season as well ! The distances to walk was fair and we could enjoy every single vineyard for what they had to offer, the pace was very relaxed an...read more
I attended the Franschhoek Wine Walk on 06 May 2025 with colleagues in the tourism industry. Matt was a great guide, bringing the history and stories of people, wine and food of the Franschhoek valley together in a fascinating way! I have visited Franschhoek many times over the years, but have never experienced it from this unique perspective. This is a must-do tour when you visit the breath-taking-beautiful valley of Franschhoek! Keep up the great work Matt!












Hi Cedric, thanks so much for the wonderful review, it was a delight to share the stories and experience with you!
Our tour with Matt was out of this world. I have learned so much about my town. Matt is an excellent tour guide. Would 100% recommend 👌
