Activity itinerary

Cape Town (Pass by)

The itinerary has been thoughtfully curated to showcase the best of the Winelands, but it can be adjusted along the way to suit your preferences. Guided by a local expert, the experience can be tailored on the go, thanks to their deep knowledge of the region.

Franschhoek

The day begins in Franschhoek, a village famed for its French heritage and award-winning wines. Take a gentle walk through the charming high street. Art galleries, boutique shops, and historic landmarks give this quaint town a unique character. Guests can linger at a local café or browse artisan stores, depending on timing and preference.

Haute Cabriere

Set against the dramatic backdrop of the Franschhoek Mountains, Haute Cabrière is an estate that blends history, artistry, and exceptional terroir. Founded by the pioneering von Arnim family, it has become synonymous with Méthode Cap Classique, South Africa’s answer to Champagne. The estate’s vineyards thrive in the valley’s unique soils, producing grapes with the perfect balance of acidity and character for world-class sparkling wines. Guests can explore the estate’s rich Huguenot heritage while enjoying a tasting in a cellar carved into the mountainside, accompanied by sweeping views of the Franschhoek Valley—a true celebration of wine and place.

Stark-Conde Wines

1h 30m

Nestled in the Jonkershoek Valley, Stark-Condé is the ideal stop for a relaxed, scenic lunch. Guests dine beside a tranquil lake, surrounded by towering peaks and vineyards, while enjoying the estate’s award-winning wines and fresh, seasonal dishes.

Stellenbosch

After lunch, take a stroll through Stellenbosch, South Africa’s second-oldest town. The oak-shaded streets, Cape Dutch architecture, and lively ambiance offer a mix of history and modern culture, making it a memorable stop.

Rust en Vrede Tasting Room

Established in 1694, Rust en Vrede is one of Stellenbosch’s most historic wine estates, renowned for its dedication to crafting only red wines. The Helderberg region’s granite-rich soils and warm climate create the ideal conditions for producing bold, structured varietals like Cabernet Sauvignon, Syrah, and Merlot. Family-owned for generations, the estate combines traditional methods with modern precision, earning international acclaim for its powerful yet elegant wines. The tranquil gardens, historic Cape Dutch architecture, and a strong sense of heritage make Rust en Vrede not just a tasting experience, but a journey through the legacy of South African winemaking.
