Covid–19 – your safety & our Codes of Practice
 
Hermanus has (since the 1850’s) been prescribed by Harley Street doctors of London, for offering visitors delightful “Champagne Air” – with clean, refreshing, unpolluted seaside air and crystal clear coastal atmospheres – with huge sandy beaches, 100s of hiking trails and massive mountain ranges to explore - ALL our Wineries are out in the open countryside too.

Social distancing will apply at each winery that we visit – we will phone ahead to each winery and make sure that we will be able to reserve a large space for you that is away from any other tourists.

Below are the safety measures that you can expect from us when you arrive on holiday to Hermanus and Cape Town.
 
Upon meeting your Chauffeur Wine Tour Guide at your collection point – we will offer you the following hygiene and health protection items –

1. Temperature gauges – each passenger will be scanned at the collection point
2. Face masks – will be given to all passengers and must be worn at all times – including your Chauffeur/Tour Guide – these are surgical face masks for utmost protection
3. Hand disinfectant sanitizers – will be applied to each person’s hands before boarding the vehicle – and – dispensing bottles are available inside the vehicle too – (these are 60% alcohol or higher, containing Chlorhexidine Gluconate solution)
4. Disposal sanitizing Hand wipes – are available in the vehicles
5. Packets of travel Tissues – are available in the vehicles
6. Social distancing – ALL vehicles will ONLY have a maximum of 70% occupancy – so – a Car will have a maximum of 2 passengers / 8 seater kombi minibus will have a maximum of 5 passengers / 14 seater minibus will have a maximum of 9 passengers / 23 seater bus will have a maximum of 16 passengers.
7. No shared items – usually our vehicles have a great selection of books, magazines and reference material on a myriad of local topics – Birds, Animals, Whales, Sharks, Flowers/Botanics, Wine booklets and John Platter guide.... and binoculars, refreshing mints, cell phone car chargers – due to Covid-19, these will have to be removed, sorry.....
8. Deep Cleaning – after we have dropped you off at the end of your Wine Tour, then we will return to our garages and conduct a lengthy cleaning session of the interior of the vehicle – including – wiping all surfaces, door handles, air-con buttons and vents, head rests, the back of seats, instrument panels, window switches/handles... etc... so we are ready for the next days trips.

 
ALL groups will be isolated – we will NEVER mix’n’match groups – in other words you (and your family) will have a vehicle and Wine Tour Guide exclusively – we will never bolt another person or group to your Wine Tour – you will have your own exclusive space
 
NB. These protocols may change according to Govt guidelines and international practices
 
We wish you an amazing holiday to incredible Hermanus (and beyond….)
 
Very many thanks – from your Hermanus Wine Tours team 😃👍
