Was 'n besondere ervaring in die pragtige natuurskoon! Diens by restaurant was ook puik! - Jossie
Was a very peaceful river cruise. Was disappointed with the food available for our picnic. Due to our schedule, was hope to have sandwich on the cruise as our lunch. Unfortunately, there wasn't any. The staff at the food counter was not very friendly. - Gee
We had a fantastic experience. The river cruise was a relaxing and scenic one-hour trip, offering beautiful views and a peaceful atmosphere. After the cruise, we enjoyed some of the farm's exceptional wines, purchasing bottles of our choice to share among friends. The staff were friendly and accommodating, and the overall experience was both enjoyable and memorable. Highly recommended for a great day out combining nature, good company, and quality wine. - Chaderick
