Guest Reviews

We had a wonderful half day tour with our driver Francis. He was a wonderful guide and driver who allowed us to complete our quite special itinerary without any hesitation. We would highly recommend the tour!
We did Dieu Donné, Haute Cabrière, La Bri Wine Estate and got dropped at Mont Rochelle for sunset. Thank you so much Francis!

My husband and I booked the full day curated wine tour with Tuk Tuk on the recommendations of a friend. It was a brilliant day and we were extremely well looked after by the Tuk Tuk and winery staff. All of the tastings and food were included in the upfront price (which was exceptional value) so there was literally nothing to worry about on the day.

We started at La Bri (going from Franschhoek town center in a tuk tuk) with a tour followed by a wine tasting with a pairing (we chose chocolate - yum!). The next stop was Mont Rochelle for a cellar tour, tasting and 2 course lunch, which was fantastic - we never felt rushed by our tour guide as we were given just the perfect amount of time to relax and take in the atmosphere. Finally, we were taken in a larger vehicle out to Anthonij Rupert Estates, where we were greeted with a glass of their brut rose before boarding the tram for a tour of the vineyard on the way to the Auto Museum where we had a private tour (c. 1 hour). Following the tour, we took the tram through the vineyard back to the main building for a private tasting. I chose to do the L'Ormarins tasting and my husband a different wine tasting than would have been included in our tour, but the winery refused to charge us any extra, which was a lovely surprise! The man leading our tasting even gave us some mystery tastings to see if we could identify the grape variety.

Having friends that had done the wine tram before, we would absolutely recommend Tuk Tuk over that as there is no rush and plenty of time at the vineyards that should definitely be on your list!

Dear Karen,

Again, I must write to you guys after a 2nd visit to Franschhoek and making use of your services.

Just perfect.....again.

The guests I brought through from the UK in February, had obviously headed home and waxed lyrical about bouncing around the wine-farms in Tuk Tuks.

So this visit including my 85yr old Aunt from the UK, had to include a Tuk Tuk day.

We chose to visit Colmant & Klein Goederust. Both phenomenal, but it is made all the easier and so much more fun to have you guys ferry us about.

Your driver Gift, and his colleague Mousa (?? - hate it if I have that wrong) were brilliant, and so helpful.

On departure from TUK TUK HQ, it was a little difficult for my Aunt to climb up and into the 1st vehicle, but we managed, and out at Colmant.

On collection at Colmant, there were 2 drivers and 2 vehicles! The 2nd, lower to the ground, with heavily padded seating.

This simple, unrequested and thoughtful kindness made my Aunt's day.

And in turn, mine, as that kind of thinking is the true art of service.

You have, in my opinion, hit on a winning formula, and I look forward to the next opportunity to re-book.

Thank you to all of you team.

Many thanks indeed

We used the Tuk Tuk to visit two wine farms which we chose in Franschhoek (Le Lude for MCC tasting and Leeu). The whole experience was easy and great fun. The drivers had great senses of humour and drove very safely. Just to note that Leeu do not allow the Tuk Tuks to go near the wine tasting venue (even though cars are allowed) so there is a bit of a walk from the entrance/drop off point but don’t let that put you off using the Tuk Tuk, just choose other wine estates if you cannot walk any distance.

Hi there,

Just wanted to say what an awesome time we had in Franschhoek on Thursday.

1st time using your Tuk Tuks and I'm hooked.

From the minute we got in, until the end, myself and my 2 overseas guests laughed and smiled the whole way.

Felt like such an exclusive ride!

I have got to commend Francis.

A better representative of your business, I think it would be very hard to find.

He was so helpful and extremely friendly from start to finish.

I know obviously that you would much prefer the town to be flooded with International tourists after the last 2 years, but we ended up effectively with Francis as our driver for the whole day, which must be unusual when you are busy.

Felt in such good hands with his great timing , help and information. Will definitely be booking with you again at some point in the future.

Thank you so very much and cannot wait to be back in SA and experiencing the Curated Package.

HATS OFF to  YOU Karen & a Great Team of Guys.

YOU HAVENT EXPERIENCED A TUK TUK UNTIL YOU EXPERIENCE ONE IN FRANSCHHOEK

What an awesome way to experience Franschhoek. Didn't pre-book as we hadn't planned a stop in the beautiful little town until friends said it's a MUST and the TUK TUK is a MUST. We found such a great guy in their ticket office and he made a booking and off we went for 3 stops with Francis. WOW!! The Estates are beautiful, wines speak for themselves, especially after 2 stops and we were offered an additional hour at NO CHARGE!.
