How do day trips with Daytrip work?

Day trips offer travelers private round-trip transportation to popular sightseeing locations. One of our professional drivers will pick you up in a luxurious, climate-controlled car, take you to the site of interest, and wait for you while you explore before driving you back to your hotel.

Will I have to wait around for the driver to return?

Your Daytrip driver will wait for you nearby for the duration of your exploration, meaning you’ll never have to wait for your return trip transportation to arrive. Your comfort and convenience are our top priorities, and we aim to close out your day trip with a return on your schedule.

Can I customize the pickup and drop-off times?

Yes! You’re free to choose the pickup and drop-off times that work best for you. However, the time spent at the destination is fixed and cannot be changed.

Are entrance tickets and tours included in the price?

The price of a day trip does not include any entrance tickets, guided tours, or meals you may partake in at your destination. The price covers round-trip transportation in a luxury vehicle with a professional driver who can provide local insights en route.

How long will I have to explore?

Each sightseeing stop has a recommended duration that includes plenty of time to explore. However, it is possible to customize the time spent at each sightseeing stop at a later stage in the booking process to best fit your unique schedule.

If my plans change, is the booking flexible?

Day trip bookings can be canceled up to 24 hours before your trip for a full refund, no strings attached. While the destination and stops are predetermined, it is possible to change your pick-up point, whether it is at your hotel or some other location within the city.

Can I take a large group?

Yes! Day trips are fully customizable to suit the needs of any private group. From solo travelers to large families with children and even corporate groups, we are ready to create a bespoke itinerary that accommodates parties of all sizes. The price is dependent on the number of vehicles required to serve your group, and we also provide child seats.

Will my driver speak English?

Your friendly, professional, local driver will speak English. Our drivers are happy to provide any local insight they can on the way to your destination and may be able to answer questions and provide tips for the best possible experience on your day trip.

Can I request children’s car seats for the journey?

Yes, we provide car seats for children of all ages, which meet stringent safety standards and local legal requirements. You can even bring your own car seat. We also have handicapped-accessible vehicles available for a wide range of needs for our passengers. When booking your day trip, please specify the accommodations you will need.

Can I pay securely online?

Yes, Daytrip offers flexible payment options. We accept Google Pay, Apple Pay, and Ali Pay. You also can pay securely online with any major credit card, such as Visa, Mastercard, or American Express.

Booking your day trip is as easy as our one-way and return trips! On the landing page of the day trip you’d like to take, simply select the date, pick up time, and how many adults and children will be on the trip. On the second page, you’ll fill in personal details, including any special requests, disability accommodations, and children’s car seats you may need. We are flexible too! You can change your exact pick-up location (hotel address, etc) up to 24 hours before your day trip.

Stellenbosch

N'hésitez pas à explorer à votre propre rythme et à découvrir

Arrêt : 2 heures - entrée non incluse

Arrêt de l'itinéraire à Stellenbosch lors d'une excursion privée d'une journée depuis Cape Town

Main attractions

South Africa's second oldest European settlement and the heart of the Cape Winelands — a university town of Cape Dutch whitewashed gables, oak-lined streets and Georgian facades set against the Stellenbosch Mountain and the Jonkershoek valley, with over 200 wine estates producing some of the southern hemisphere's finest Chenin Blanc, Pinotage and Cabernet Sauvignon within minutes of the town center
Dorp Street is one of the best-preserved historic streetscapes in South Africa — a continuous run of 18th and 19th-century Cape Dutch and Victorian architecture, housing wine bars, galleries, and restaurants beneath ancient oak canopies

What to eat

Braai-grilled meat and Cape Malay bobotie (spiced minced meat baked with egg custard) at any of the town's wine-paired restaurants; a cheese and charcuterie board on a wine estate terrace with mountain views is the defining Stellenbosch lunch

Franschhoek

N'hésitez pas à explorer à votre propre rythme et à découvrir

Arrêt : 2 heures - entrée non incluse

Arrêt de l'itinéraire à Franschhoek lors d'une excursion privée d'une journée depuis Cape Town

Main attractions

A former Huguenot refugee settlement in a narrow mountain valley 30km from Stellenbosch — the French refugees who arrived in 1688 planted the first vineyards and named the valley's farms in French; today Franschhoek is South Africa's self-declared culinary capital, a single main street of exceptional restaurants, wine-tasting rooms and galleries framed by the Franschhoek Mountains on three sides
The Huguenot Memorial Museum and monument documents the French Protestant exodus that shaped the Cape's wine culture, language, and surnames — Joubert, Du Plessis, and De Villiers remain among the most common names in the Western Cape

What to eat

Franschhoek's restaurant density is extraordinary for a village of its size — The Test Kitchen, La Petite Colombe, and Babel are among South Africa's most celebrated tables; the main street wine-tasting rooms allow estate wines by the glass without leaving the village

Amazing driver experience

Our driver, Ibrahim, was wonderful. He drove us from Amman airport to Petra. Our flight was one hour early and he was already waiting for us when we got to the exit of the airport. He was helpful, professional and friendly. We would definitely love to have Ibrahim again and highly recommend him!

Heidi I27 février 2026

Awesome experience! Highly recommend!

So, so happy I stumbled upon this website to book two private transports while visiting Lima, Peru. They were both one-way trips approximately 3 hours in length. Great communication as soon as everything was booked via email and I then downloaded their app. I had a few issues with the app and the customer service was awesome trying to assist me in getting it corrected. Honestly impressive customer service which gave you a positive feeling that you made the right choice. Both drivers were right on time - No issues whatsoever! Can't say enough about the service and ease of everything when travelling so far away. Great job to the daytrip team! Would strongly recommend.

Touring through Tuscany

We had the same driver for our 2 day trip in tuscany. I was able to develop my own itinerary so I could go where we wanted and see the things we wanted. Marco was fantastic!! He opened doors for us and made sure my mother was able to get in and out of the car easily. He had water in the car for us. He was early picking us up both days and brought us as close to the towns as he could. He told us which way to go to enter the cities and then sent me his location so we knew how to get back to him after traveling the streets. Im so happy I decided to get a driver to take us through Tuscany. It took all the worry and anxiety of driving through this region I had never been to and didnt know where to park. Money well spent!

Great transfer option.

I used this service for a transfer from Split in Croatia to Perast Montenegro. My experience was exceptional. My driver Bojan was helpful, informative and ensured my journey was comfortable and enjoyable. I highly recommend the service.

It was a fantastic trip.

We were extremely satisfied with the quality of service we received from Day Trip. We had two Day Trip rides on August 31 from Athens to Lefkada and September 7 from Lefkada back to Athens. Both trips included stops at scenic sites in Greece. Both drivers were excellent and accommodating. However, we’d especially like to recognize Panos Peppas, who was our driver from Lefkada to Athens. Panos was incredibly nice & pleasant and delivered outstanding customer service, which included handling all of luggage, providing us with cold waters throughout the trip, providing us protein bars, providing us with printed materials on the Corinth Canal (one of scenic stops), looking up and providing us with terminal & gate info for our flight back home and providing us with a recipe for tzatziki.

Best transport company anywhere

We absolutely love this company and have used it many times over the years to get from A to B without the hassle of hiring a car ourselves. Excellent drivers every time. Efficient and professional. It’s worth every penny and we can honestly recommend Day Trip to everyone. It’s 5 star rating is well deserved.

Excellent experience in traveling

We traveled from Nuremberg to Munich in a beautiful Audi. Driver picked us at our hotel at the exact time requested. Got us to Munich in plenty of time for our next tour. Driver made sure we were comfortable

Reasonably Priced and Safe Transportation

Gonzalo from daytrip was our driver and he was absolutely amazing. He went over and beyond trying to locate us as our service wasn't so good on our phones. He patiently awaited our arrival to the lobby so he could take us from Tulum Dreams Resort to our other hotel in cancun an hour and a half away near the airport prior to our departure flight home. He was polite, respectful and kind. Made sure we were comfortable during our long ride. Fast and to the point. I recommend this company as finding a one way ride from Tulum to Cancun isn't easy or cheap and this company provides a great service for a great price. I will definitely be using them again whenever I'm in the Cancun/Tulum area. Thank you DayTrip and Gonzola.

Daytrip never disappoints

We were picked up by Marianna to drive us from Heraklion to Chania. The weather was terrible & due to this Marianna arrived a few minutes late. She contacted me to advise of this. Marianna lives in Chana and she made our trip very interesting by informing us of local things to do and see in Chania. Marianna is a safe driver and we all felt comfortable with the speed she drove at and how good her driving was in heavy rain. She is a lovely person with fluent English. We highly recommend Daytrips and if you are in Heraklion or Chania please make sure you ask for Marianna.

Great driver in Egypt

Used the service to go from Luxor to Hurghada, Egypt. Ahmed H was our driver and he was perfect. The car was new, clean, he had water and snacks for us, and accommodated our stops. Great service from him and would recommend it.

Know more about your day trip

The Cape Winelands are surprisingly welcoming to families. Many estates have lawns, playgrounds, and kid-friendly menus, and some offer activities like farm animals, picnics, or grape juice tastings for younger travelers. Stellenbosch's compact center is easy to walk with kids, and Franschhoek's main street is short, level, and lined with ice-cream shops and bakeries.

Yes, the towns are close enough that a single day allows time at both. Most travelers spend around 2 hours in each, leaving enough time for one or two estate visits, lunch, and a walk through the historic centers. If you want a deeper Winelands experience, prioritize either restaurants in Franschhoek or estate visits around Stellenbosch.

Many of the most popular estates in Stellenbosch and Franschhoek now require or strongly recommend tasting reservations, especially on weekends and during peak season. Some boutique estates accept walk-ins on weekdays. Booking ahead saves time and guarantees access to specific tastings, including paired food experiences which are increasingly sold out in advance.

Stellenbosch is about 31 miles (50 km) from Cape Town, roughly a 45-minute to 1-hour drive on the N2. Franschhoek lies about 19 miles (31 km) further inland, around 30 minutes from Stellenbosch via scenic mountain roads. The full route reveals the dramatic Cape Winelands landscape framed by jagged peaks.

Stellenbosch is known for braai-grilled meats and Cape Malay bobotie, a spiced minced-meat dish baked with egg custard. Cheese and charcuterie boards on estate terraces are a classic Winelands lunch. In Franschhoek, the dining scene is exceptional, with everything from refined tasting menus to bistros serving local lamb, springbok, and seafood paired with valley wines.

Franschhoek is South Africa's self-declared culinary capital, founded by French Huguenot refugees in 1688 who planted the first vineyards in the valley. Today it features one main street packed with celebrated restaurants, wine-tasting rooms, and galleries, all framed by the towering Franschhoek Mountains. The Huguenot Memorial Museum tells the story of the French Protestant exodus that shaped the region.

The Winelands are rewarding year-round, but the most popular season runs from October to April, when the weather is warm and the vineyards are lush. Harvest season in February and March is especially atmospheric. Winter months from June to August are cooler and quieter with occasional rain, but the misty mountain landscapes and cozy cellar tastings have their own appeal.

Stellenbosch is South Africa's second-oldest European settlement and the heart of the Cape Winelands. It blends a lively university town atmosphere with whitewashed Cape Dutch architecture, oak-lined streets, and over 200 nearby wine estates producing world-class Chenin Blanc, Pinotage, and Cabernet Sauvignon. Dorp Street is one of South Africa's best-preserved historic streetscapes, lined with galleries, cafes, and wine bars.
