Description:

In Stellenbosch, be swept away by breathtaking scenery and rows upon rows of wonderful, wine-producing vines. Travel inland to the lush, green countryside that forms the center of South Africa's wine-growing economy and visit 3 famous wine producers for tastings.

Bordered by dramatic mountain scenery and nature reserves, the idyllic valleys east of Cape Town provide nearly perfect conditions for grape growing and wine producing. Begin in the town of Stellenbosch; admire the romantic setting enhanced by canal-lined boulevards, giant oak trees, and historic buildings. Here enjoy your first tasting of the day at one of its distinguished vineyards.

Afterward, go up and over the scenic Helshoogte Pass to Franschhoek (French Corner), a 17th-century town that’s full of character. Take some free time to sample one of the highly regarded restaurants before the second wine tasting of the day. Complete the tour in Paarl, in the shadow of stunning giant granite outcrops. Savor your last tasting at a location on the celebrated Paarl wine route before you head back to the city.
