Hello! I'm Claudia — your local Cape Town expert with a global heart. Originally from the U.S., I’ve called Cape Town home for nearly 40 years, and I’ve never stopped falling in love with its dramatic landscapes, vibrant culture, and warm people. As a registered private tourist guide, I specialise in tailor-made tours that go well beyond the usual highlights. Whether we’re exploring the iconic Table Mountain, Cape Point, or hidden coastal gems, I’ll show you the city's best photo opportunities, flavours, and stories — all at your pace and to your taste. I am passionate about road cycling, art, and photography, so I bring a creative eye to every tour. Love food and wine? Let’s head to the Winelands for tastings that include wine-and-chocolate pairings, biltong, cheese, and unforgettable local cuisine — from Cape Malay to seafood feasts and sunset picnics. Do you prefer something active or outdoorsy? We can walk along the Sea Point Promenade, visit Kirstenbosch Gardens and sculpture gardens, or browse local markets. I also offer customised trips to Hermanus, the Garden Route, and Big-5 safaris near Port Elizabeth for those with more time. Let me craft a private tour that feels more like travelling with an experienced friend—someone who knows all the shortcuts., stories, and secret spots. Cape Town is magical… come discover why! Information: I am a registered tourist guide in the Western Cape and can guide tourists along the Garden Route as far as Port Elizabeth. My car, a Toyota Fortuner SUV, is fully licensed, registered, and holds an NPTR Operating Licence, and I am insured for personal liability. I hold the required PDP driver's license. My First Aid certificate is current and valid. I have completed an Introductory Course in Wine Appreciation. I am a proud member of the CTGA - Cape Town Tourist Guides Association.

Overview of your Cape Town tour

The wine estates in Constantia, such as Groot Constantia, are steeped in history and charm. They often feature Cape Dutch-style buildings, which add a sense of cultural depth to the experience. These estates benefit from the unique climate and soil conditions of the Constantia Valley, including cool sea breezes from False Bay and granite-rich soils, contributing to their wines' distinctive flavors and characteristics. Visitors to Constantia can expect to sample varietals, including Cabernet Sauvignon, Shiraz, Sauvignon Blanc, Chardonnay, and MCC sparkling wine, our champagne. Each estate offers its ambience and scenic beauty, from vineyards on mountainside slopes to elegant gardens with oak trees. Whether you're a connoisseur or a casual wine enthusiast looking to enjoy beautiful surroundings and exceptional hospitality, Constantia wine estates promise an unforgettable journey through South Africa's rich wine culture. It perfectly blends history, natural beauty, and world-class wine tasting.
