  • Stellenbosch Wine Route expand_more

    The Stellenbosch Wine Route, set in the heart of the Cape Winelands, is the second oldest wine region in South Africa with more than 300 wine estates and can be divided into different routes: Bottelary Hills, Devon Valley Vines, Helderberg, and Simonsberg. Experience this historical, multicultural town by enjoying a tailor-made tour through one of the Western Cape's biggest attractions. 

    Stellenbosch is a premier tourist and wine destination, generally characterized by its hot, dry summers and cold, wet winters, perfectly suitable for growing wine grapes. Traditionally famous for its crisp white wines, Stellenbosch winemakers have made significant progress in producing some beautiful, quality red wines, like Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, and Shiraz, as well as some delicious blends. 

    Well-known wine estates include Simonsig, Hartenberg, Kleine Zalze, Warwick, and Rust en Vrede Wine Estates, amongst many other top-quality wine estates in the Cape Winelands region.

  • Robertson Wine Route expand_more

    The Robertson Wine Route is situated in the heart of Route 62 and is only a 1.5-hour drive from Cape Town. The area is known to be the longest wine route in the country, with more than 50 award-winning wineries, as well as strikingly beautiful tourist attractions and exciting outdoor activities.

    The area is surrounded by the Breede River Valley mountains, where you can end the day by appreciating a remarkable sunset cruise along the river. Cruises can be arranged for groups or private parties and need to be booked in advance.

    To avoid rushing your experience, you can make an overnight stopover in Robertson, part of your Garden Route Tour, because it is conveniently situated on the R-62, which is used to get to Oudtshoorn.

    Luxury accommodation can be booked on local farms, bed & breakfasts, or 5-star hotels.

  • Durbanville Wine Route expand_more

    The Durbanville Wine Route is close to the Mother City and around 20km north of Cape Town. The wine valley consists of nine popular wineries, all famous for their wide variety of fruit-driven wines, including crispy Sauvignon Blancs, due to the area's moderately cool climate. Bloemendal, Durbanville Hills, Meerendal, Hillcrest, and De Grendal are just a few of the names of this award-winning wine region.  Each winery is complimented with some of the best fine dining restaurants and rustic country kitchens so that you can make a day of it.

    Guided tours are arranged for individuals or small and large groups. However, prior booking is essential.

  • Hermanus Wine Route expand_more

    The Hermanus Wine Route is also known as the Walker Bay Wine District. It is centred around the Hemel-en-Aarde valley, encompassing the town, and up to 30 km west of there, to Elgin and Grabouw.

    The region is known for its 15 wineries, which grow small amounts of premium-quality grapes and produce unique wines. The estates are typically famous for their lighter, medium-bodied, fruit-forward red Pinot Noir wines due to the climate being highly influenced by the cold Atlantic Ocean that brushes from Cape Town, bringing a fresh breeze to cool grapes that are grown in this area.

    Hermanus, internationally known as a whale-watching hotspot, is also home to some top Boutique hotels like Birkenhead House and B&Bs, where overnight accommodation can be pre-booked, allowing you to linger in this area.

  • Elgin Valley expand_more

    Elgin Valley, situated just on top of the Hottentots Holland Mountain range, is a magical Canadian-looking landscape at the start of a vast apple, olive, pear, and wheat-growing area. Here, high mountain peaks, pretty lakes, and countless commercial pine forests all sit in perfect juxtaposition. In addition to all the fruit farms, some of the country’s most elegant Sauvignon Blanc wines and some of the best Pinotage wines originate from this area.

    Instead of the usual Paarl-Franschhoek-Stellenbosch tourist route, why not be adventurous and let us show you some quiet wineries unexplored by the mass market?

    From fine dining experiences to outdoor adventures, you will be guided through these magnificent, breathtaking wine regions, where you will discover the true beauty South Africa has to offer and the finest wines the world has ever tasted.
