"This is our third time doing the wine safari, and once again, Waterford did not disappoint! I cannot recommend this experience enough, but be sure to go there hungry and with enough time to fully enjoy the experience, which lasts about 3+ hours. You get to sample a wonderful variety of their wines in different settings around the estate. The settings are beautiful, and the wines are fantastic. All the staff are friendly and helpful, even when we contacted them from the UK. This has been our best wine tasting experience in South Africa, and we will definitely return on our next visit - thank you."

"We decided to visit the farm after my partner heard numerous positive comments about it, and we are so grateful we did because it truly is a hidden gem on the wine route. What sets this place apart is its authenticity. The Mediterranean architecture complements the experience, which focuses on wine tasting, wine safaris, and cellar tours. My partner indulged in the wine and chocolate experience, which looked incredible. I couldn't resist trying the white wine and chocolate combination - it was heavenly!"

"The estate is absolutely stunning, featuring picturesque architecture both inside and out, and the lovely inner courtyard provides a perfect setting to appreciate the surroundings. The staff was friendly without being overly intrusive. While the pricing is a step up compared to nearby estates, it is still very fair, and the experience offers excellent value for the money spent."
