"This was the first wine tasting we did in South Africa and it was a fantastic location with a great wine selection. We enjoyed each one and were taken through each by the team at Waterford with a lot of knowledge and expertise as to how each wine is created. The Cabernet Sauvignon was excellent."

"We enjoyed a combination of the wine tasting and the Wine and Chocolate Experience. The wines paired with chocolate were definitely the highlight - they tasted incredible! Our waiter, Lauren, was friendly and knowledgeable, and we even joined her for a complimentary cellar tour."

"Perfect as always - and even the sun was out on a marvellous winter day - just the trees were lacking the leaves - lol - no wonder, it is August (winter)... so all was perfect like the last 20 times."

"Waterford hosted over 190 ladies in their beautiful, intimate courtyard for a delightful event. The thoughtfully selected three-course menu, paired with their exquisite wines, truly impressed us! The starter featured a light and flavourful tomato-based salad. The main dish was a pleasant surprise—pasta with chicken breast cooked to perfection and served hot. The dessert was equally refreshing and satisfying. The service was outstanding, making the experience even more enjoyable. Overall, I give it five stars!"

"The experience was the Porcupine Trail Walk. The weather was not conducive to completion of the full walk so an extended cellar tour and wine tasting was organised. Staff is superb, knowledgeable and very friendly."
