Historic wine estates
Less than an hour's drive from Cape Town, there are vast vineyards that enjoy great fame around the world. South Africa has now become a significant wine country. Amid the vineyards are picturesque towns such as Stellenbosch, Paarl, Franschhoek, Wellington and Robertson. Surrounding these villages are several wine estates connected by wine routes. Many of the estates are housed in beautiful Cape Dutch buildings with centuries of history. Immerse yourself in the history of South Africa's old wineries while enjoying a good glass of wine.

Award-winning wines and relaxing activities
Many wineries are open for wine tastings. Delicious wines are then often accompanied by tapas, goat cheese and small dishes. If you choose a route that passes through the Constantia Valley, become especially acquainted with the full-bodied Sauvignon Blanc, which has won many awards. To make your stay here even more appealing: a wide variety of activities are available, including hiking, mountain biking, horseback riding and golf. You can make this a sporting activity, but the region is particularly good to explore at a leisurely and relaxed pace.
