Even a true local will find something new to discover with Kiff Kombi Tours
Last updated: 14 November 2022
Playing tourist in your own town is a great reminder of why Cape Town is one of the world's top cities to visit. It’s also why companies love doing their year-end events with Kiff Kombi Tours. Founder Drew Campbell recommends both the Wine, Beer & Biltong Safari and The Gin Jol for your team's year-end function – but all the tours make for an exceptional day out. Here’s why.
The buses are distinctive: they’re hands-down the happiest, most colourful, possibly loudest (in a good way) vehicle you'll see on the roads. Image: Kiff Kombi Tour
Every South African knows a “barbeque” will never top a braai, and the Wine, Beer & Biltong Safari tour will show you exactly why. First, you'll head out to the idyllic Stellenbosch vineyards for some breathtaking views and a wine and biltong pairing. Lunch is a real showstopper: an authentic braai at Soul Barrel Brewing Co. You'll get to dig into lamb chops, boerewors rolls and sides. The day doesn’t stop there – you’ll be treated to two more tastings of wine and beer.
Price: Scheduled tours are R1 515pp. Private tours range from R1 515pp (6+pax) - R2 725pp (2pax), depending on group size.

The Winelands tour is a wine lover's dream. It's got everything you need: four wine farm visits, a deli platter and cheese/biltong board, lunch and a wine and chocolate pairing. First stop: a wine farm for some locally produced meats, cheese and wine. Second stop: a wine and biltong pairing. Save some space, because the next stop is a sit-down lunch at an exquisite wine farm. Finally, the perfect end to any tour is on a sweet note: a wine and chocolate pairing with a local chocolatier at Waterford or Lanzerac, depending on availability.

As with the craft beer craze, the gin trend in Cape Town has been stratospheric – so much so that Cape Town has been dubbed the new gin capital of the world. On the pulse of all things cool, Kiff Kombi naturally launched a gin tour of Cape Town: The Gin Jol. Here, nobody has to be the designated driver, and everyone can safely join in the fun. You’ll visit four gin distilleries/bars that have put Cape Town on the world's gin map. The tour includes two gin tastings at different distilleries, one gin and snack pairing and a gin cocktail to finish it off.
