Itinerary

Day 1 - Classic Wine Tour

The Classic Tour takes you to 5 prestigious wine estates in Stellenbosch. On the drive to Stellenbosch and between the different estates, your wine guide will point out historic landmarks, heritage buildings and you’ll learn more about one of the world’s finest wine-growing areas.

Villiera Wine Estate • Stellenbosch

Villiera is a family run winery in the Stellenbosch region of South Africa. For over 30 years, the Griers of Villiera have been unlocking the marvels of nature to create the distinctive wines and sparkling wines that bear the family name.

During the winery and cellar tour, you’ll learn about the history of wine and viticulture. Your wine guide will talk you through the process of wine tasting and teach you about the different wine styles.

Besides wine, Capetonians also enjoy good food… you’ll have the opportunity to taste locally-cured and dried meat samples, known as biltong.

Mitre's Edge Winery & Vineyard • Stellenbosch

Mitre’s Edge is an award-winning winery located in Stellenbosch. You’ll be treated to a delicious wine and cheese pairing in the company of the winemaker.

With its beautiful Cape Dutch architecture and oak tree lanes, Stellenbosch is great place to escape the bustling city life. Your guide will take you on a drive through South Africa’s oldest town and share its rich history with you on the way to the next wine farm.

Middelvlei Wine Estate

We do a guided drive through Stellenbosch to a 100-year old family-run farm called Middelvlei. Surrounded by vineyards, you’ll enjoy their famous Boerebraai (farmer’s barbeque) followed by a wine tasting. You’ll have an opportunity to sample Middelvlei wines straight from the barrels.

Lovane Boutique Wine Estate • Stellenbosch

Lovane is an award-winning, working wine farm. You’ll learn more about the estate’s exclusive range of wine and learn how to perfectly pair chocolate and wine.

Vergenoegd Löw The Wine Estate • Stellenbosch

Vergenoegd Löw enjoys a unique position between the Helderberg Mountains and False Bay. The fresh ocean breezes cool the vineyards, infuse the fertile soil with a maritime character and allow the grapes to ripen more slowly. This distinctive terroir is one of the aspects that lend its wines their extraordinary taste.

Apart from wonderful wine tasting, you’ll enjoy the estate’s famous duck parade.

After a wonderful day filled with fine wines, delicious food and picturesque landscapes, we make our way back to Cape Town. You’re dropped at your accommodation between 17h00 and 18h00.
