Wow! Where do I begin?? I would give a sixth star if I could. This is my third time using Bike & Hike across several years and three different trips to South Africa in different seasons. Matt Fletcher, the principal and owner of the firm, is an outstanding human being and goes above and beyond to ensure that either he or one of his highly qualified guides delivers on an exceptional and unique experience. On this particular trip, Matt helped us plan - inspired by a conversation during our last visit with him - a multi-day regional cycling and mountain biking trip deep into the Cederberg Wilderness Region of South Africa. We had the opportunity to explore different areas of this region, including Bushmans Kloof Reserve, Biedouw Valley (perfect in early September for the spring wildflowers), cycling along the Olifants River north of Clanwilliam, and we included an extension into the Northern Cape to visit the Quiver Tree Forest in Nieuwoudtville. This is a special trip with my aging father, bonding over a lifelong love for cycling, that I will never forget — all while forging new experiences with a trusted guide and operator. Matt is an upstanding and very kind individual with great integrity — as are all his exceptional guides. Not only was he highly adaptable and flexible when we needed to pivot and adjust our plans (extending them, actually) only weeks before the trip, but he made great recommendations and presented alternative options each day of the trip for different weather conditions or activity levels. He’s laidback, but his business is top notch. I would highly recommend his tour operating firm Bike & Hike as a fantastic way to explore Cape Town, the Greater Cape Town Region, and the Greater Western Cape Province. Seeing South Africa on foot and on wheels is one of the best ways to experience this beautiful country, and Bike & Hike has so many great options from planned to custom tours for every age, activity level, and recreational preference and pace. No need to look further than Bike & Hike! (PS - my partners and I have also done the Franschhoek Valley cycling tour with Bike & Hike, which is also top notch!)

Abie’s enthusiasm was infectious and his expertise was reassuring as he treated us to a car-less thrill ride along Chapman Peak. First time on e-bikes was fun but would love to go for a long ride on road bikes with him next time. Having him along during an earlier Langa Township tour was an added benefit.

Abie was a fantastic guide on our half day tour. He gave us a long ride as we were really into the biking. We learned so much from him about the history of the area. We enjoyed the wines at Mont Rochelle and La Bri. It’s a great way to explore the area.

We had the most wonderful day exploring by bike. The personalised tour was matched to our liking and the pace as we wanted. Wine-tastings were phenomenal and allowed us as a family to relax and take in the vistas. Lastly we enjoyed a farm to fork meal at Mont Rochelle which was so fresh and delicious. Thank you, thank you!

Incredible and perfect day!!! Matt was such a thoughtful and informative guide. He knew the routes well, made it fun and easy for us, and pointed out so many beautiful things along the way. Could not recommend this tour more highly!!! Absolutely fantastic and memories we will have forever

I had an excellent morning e cycling up to and around the reservoir, with fantastic views on quiet roads and tracks followed by wine tastings at La Motte and La Bri. The delightful couple running the business were very accommodating and my guide was charming and interesting. I would recommend an outing with this company.

Exploring the valley and wineries with Hike and Bike was THE BEST!! We have been to Franschhoek many times and know the area well But doing it with Hike and Bike gave it a Plus Abi our wide was wonderful, professional, knowledgeable and kind. We visited La Bri, Grand Provence and Mount Rochelle all 3 good choices Thank you for a GREAT EXPERIENCE!!

Don’t look any further! This tour was absolutely AMAZING! The hike was gorgeous, so scenic and just the right amount of challenging. Matt our tour guide was so lovely and knowledgeable being a resident of Cape Town and having hiked up table mountain countless times. He even bought cheese & biscuits for us as a snack on the way up. Book this immediately it won’t disappoint

Our half day guided bike tour was a great introduction to Capetown and most enjoyable. Our guide Skeezo was really good company, well informed and attentive. My wife and I and would certainly book another of the tours with Bike and Hike if returning to the region. Happy to recommend them.

Our second hike with Matt and his team. Can not rate them highly enough. Abi was our guide and he ensured we had an amazing experience. Reaching the top for the sunset and ensured we all returned safely. He was very friendly, good fun and nothing was too much trouble. I would not hesitate to recomnend Matt and his team.

First class. Can not recommend Matt and his team highly enough. Our guide was extremely knowledgeable and friendly and gave us an experience we would have never had on our own. Thank you

A superb 5hr experience! The value for money is exceptional. Door to door pick up/drop off plus bike hire with Matt (very friendly and helpful), private guide (very knowledgeable, friendly, helpful), x2 vineyard tours with excellent wine tasting experience included and an amazing lunch at Richard Branson's vineyard. 2/2.5hrs of fairly easy riding, with a couple of hills that will give a nice challenge to someone with average fitness. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

Professional, informative and fun. Loved every moment. Already planning the next one! Thank you Bike and Hike for the memorable cycle.

Great Morning riding our bikes surrounded by the splendour of the Cape Winelands. An easy ride for anybody who has ridden a bicycle on road or trail. The e-bikes certainly help you on the hills which are few. Very well organised tour with beautiful views. Highly recommend trip.

If you are looking for a fun way to couple light exercise and a morning out with friends surrounded by beautiful landscapes then this is it! Matt and his team went out of their way to arrange all logistics including fancy e-bikes and an amazing picnic on the lawns to top off an enjoyable and interesting ride along the green belts of Constantia. Cannot recommend this outing highly enough!
