The 10 Best Multi-day Tours in Franschhoek, Western Cape

March 28, 2022 Jacquiline Delozier

The village of Franschhoek (French Corner), tucked into the Cape Winelands of South Africa, is known as the country's food and wine capital. Galleries and antique shops fill the tree-lined streets, and vineyards established more than 300 years ago cascade over the hills just outside town. Local activities range from wine-tasting tours to trout fishing and hiking. The Huguenot Memorial Museum honors the town's early settlers, who fled religious persecution in France.

This company, BornInAfrica, is amazing. I had the pleasure of dealing with their owner Dave. Dave was very quick to respond to all my queries (quite a few!) and really thought with me as to how to make the best out of my experience. I had severe time constraints but Dave managed to work around these. Even with 24 hours, Dave and his team are able to get you a wonderful game drive. The tour is great value and seems very well organised. Unfortunately due to a covid test requirement which arrived late, I never was able to fly to South Africa. Dave was very understanding and is wonderful to do business with. I am already in the process with Dave to reschedule for a date in the future. I can genuinely say BornInAfrica and Dave is an amazing team and you will not be disappointed dealing with them.

Angelo took me and my husband on a private Cape Town day tour. It was such an amazing trip and we fell in love with South Africa instantly. Angelo was very professional and was just so pleasant and chill throughout our tour. He was very knowledgeable and we were so grateful to have him as our guide. Even though we were on a time constraint (we only had one full day in Cape Town), Angelo was still able to show us a bit of everything, fully utilizing his expertise of the area. This tour is so worth it, and we will definitely be heading back and asking for Angelo again!

Given the current COVID-19 concerns, a private tour was just what my partner and I needed. We had an absolutely amazing time with our tour guide Armando! He was incredibly knowledgable about the sites we visited on our tour as well as entertaining, making for an all around great day touring the cape. Our pick up was timely as well. Armando also allowed for reasonable breaks in between tour sites so we can really enjoy the spots we visited. Anyone interested in a comfortable and fun tour should certainly book with these guys they are great!

This local based tour company is well knowledged of the area and provides a professional service to the clients in terms of site history and places of interest. Celine my tour guide for the Xi'an part demonstrated lots of passion and information of all the sites that we visited. She was extremely friendly and provided good support to everyone's needs. The Terracotta Warriors were amazing to see and also the Xian City Wall. I highly recommend Travel China Guide as a tour company choice for any China trip.
