Full Day Mystery Tour

Maybe the best day of our first ever trip to South Africa. We were met by our guide, Aylmar, to discover that we were the only ones booked for the day and so had him, and his minibus, to ourselves. I won't reveal where we went but Alymar's choices were top notch and the pairing experiences very relaxed, enjoyable and enlightening! What we found particularly interesting was finding out a lot more about what makes this part of the country tick and some revealing insights on the history of SA and the social fabric of the nation. Anyhow back on the wine - if you are on the mystery tour make sure you get the nougat / Cape Classique pairings - sublime wines in an incredible setting! We will return - the day will live long in the memory.

This trip was one of the highlights of our SA trip! Our guide Aylmer was incredibly knowledgeable and so easy to get on with we had a fantastic day. We felt like the day was catered to our tastes and likes but still allowed us to broaden our range of wines by trying new things! Would highly recommend booking the mystery tour and thank you again to Aylmer for such a great day :)

WOW...what a day! My wife and I have taken numerous wine tours and excursions over the years, but have gotten turned-off by the crowds and oftentimes relative inexperience and lack of knowledge from the wine "experts" that have hosted them. Not even close to the experience we had with Danelle- we learned a lot about the different types of wines, how best to enjoy them, the regions and wineries we visited as well as South African wines in general. Danelle's knowledge and passion was really off the charts, and her sense of humor and enthusiasm only added to the wonderful experience. Highly recommend going with La Rochelle Tours...you will not be disappointed!
