  • Cape Winelands expand_more
    • We will leave from Cape Town’s picturesque city bowl, which lies in a natural amphitheatre ringed by Table Mountain, Signal Hill, Lion’s Head and Devil’s Peak. This fantastic natural beauty, along with a temperate climate, has made Cape Town a long-time favourite of world travellers.
    • As we head out of the city, you might see a distinctive architectural quirk characteristic of this area. The gable design on many buildings is a legacy of the first Cape Dutch farmers settling in the area in the 1600 and 1700s. 
    • We will head eastwards, travelling on the N1 out of the city.
    • Our tour of the Cape Winelands starts with a visit to Paarl, a charming valley overlooked by the ‘Pearl of Paarl’, an imposing granite mountain that towers above this area. Stately oak trees line well-manicured streets and gardens, and you can expect to see many fine examples of Cape Dutch architecture.
    • We will visit one of the top Paarl wine estates to sample their fine wines and enjoy a tour of their cellar, where you can gain insight into the viniculture process.
    • Moving on to our next stop, it’s a short but spectacular drive from Paarl to Franschhoek. We are deep in the Cape Winelands, and vineyards, verdant valleys, and rolling mountains surround us.
    • Here we will stop for lunch (at the guests' expense) and another wine tasting at an excellent wine estate.
    • The last stop on our tour of the Winelands is Stellenbosch, the second oldest town in South Africa and the historic heart of the country’s wine region. Enjoy a final wine tasting before returning to Cape Town.
    • At the end of a leisurely day exploring the stunning Cape Winelands, we will return you to Cape Town in style and comfort
