I'm Christo, your private tour guide in Cape Town I've been guiding in Cape Town since 2012, and this city has been my home my entire life — every recommendation comes from real local knowledge, not a script. With a 5.0 rating across 93 reviews and over 150 tours delivered in the past two years, I focus on one thing: making sure your time here feels personal, not packaged. My specialty is the Cape Winelands and Cape Peninsula — wine tasting, Cape Point, Boulders Beach penguins, and the best of Stellenbosch and Franschhoek — but I also guide further afield across the West Coast, Overberg, and Garden Route for those with more time. I'm available 7am–11pm, seven days a week, including public holidays, for individuals and groups up to 9 people. Whether you have a single day or two weeks, I'll build the itinerary around what you actually want to see — including the spots most tours skip. Every tour listed here is a sample; message me your interests and travel dates and I'll put together a personalized custom tour, with a few surprises of my own along the way. I reply fast, so if you're looking for a knowledgeable, flexible, and genuinely local guide — even on short notice — get in touch and let's plan your Cape Town.

Overview of your Cape Town tour

We will be visiting Stellenbosch, Franschhoek and Paarl, considered by locals as the heart of the Cape Winelands. Stellenbosch is the second oldest town in South Africa and has a deeply embedded Dutch history and culture. The oldest road called Dorp Street is lined out with old historical building which resembles the different eras of occupation by the Dutch and the English. Franschhoek on the other hand has a more of a French historic background and dates back to the late 1600 when close to 27 French Huguenots was established by the Dutch to plant grapes and to produce some good wines. Today it is seen as the Food and Wine capital of South Africa. Paarl again is the third oldest town in South Africa and is seen today as the new millionaires mile, where some of South Africa's top sporting heroes and celeberaties established themselves on the polo and golf estates. With plenty of wine to choose and spectacular scenery you are spoiled for choice.

Christo is easy going, knowledgeable and passionate about his country. We had a nice relaxed trip around the wine regions. He willingly changed the itinerary to suit our tastes. We would highly recommend him as a guide!

Great tour of the Cape Winelands with Christo who is a very knowledgeable, friendly and interesting local. Highlights included a wine and cheese pairing/tasting at Fairview in Paarl and an exceptional lunch at La Petit Ferme in Franschoek.

My husband and I had a brilliant day with Christo touring the beautiful wine areas of Paarl, Stellenbosch, and Franschhoek. Christo is so personable and knowledgeable about the area. This makes sense because he is a local. He took us to beautiful vineyards where we enjoyed the setting as much as the wine. I highly recommend Christo for this tour and any other you might wish to take. We also toured the Cape with Christo and had a wonderful day then as well.

This was a fantastic tour! Christo was highly knowledgeable about South African wine, the wine regions and general history. He was very kind, prompt and personable. We thoroughly enjoyed the day. We had a delicious lunch, great wines and saw some incredible sites in the beautiful wine country near Cape Town. Highly recommend!
