Winelands - Private Full Day Tour
Cape Peninsula, South Africa
WINELANDS
(Private Full Day Tour)
Depart the city to the Winelands region in the
nearby Boland Mountains, for a leisurely exploration of historic Wine
Route towns, their liquid delights and famed hospitality.
Estates visited will vary according to client preferences, but the
tour generally includes the region’s major wine producing areas,
and there are chances aplenty en route for tastings of high quality reds
and whites as well as Cap Classiques (South African “Champagnes”) in areas
including Stellenbosch, Simonsberg, Paarl and
Franschhoek.
Lunch is at one of the many classic restaurants in the area.
Natural and historic heritage abounds in this area and your tour may take
in sights like the Afrikaans Language Monument with its panoramic
Boland views, the historic estate of Boschendal, with its
beautifully preserved Cape Dutch buildings and priceless period
furniture. Idyllic Franschhoek, nestled in the valley where the
French Huguenots settled in 1688, is a delight for antique lovers
and gastronomes (the town boasts some world-famous eateries).
Stellenbosch, South
Africa’s second-oldest town provides another glimpse of classic 17th &
18th Century Cape style with a chance to browse quaint Dorp Street,
visit the museum or explore the many galleries and shops of
this university town.
