Leaving Cape Town in the morning we enjoy a leisurely drive in an air-conditioned vehicle (bikes in tow) out to the heart of the Cape Winelands.
This is a laid-back and mellow tour of a truly gorgeous part of the country where some of the finest wines in the world are crafted by award-winning viticulturists. The region is rich in beauty and culture and steeped in French and Dutch history.
You’ll get to visit Stellenbosch, hometown not only of some of the best-known Cape wine estates but also of the University of Stellenbosch, aka “Maties”.
You’ll also experience some of the estates out in the picturesque valley of Paarl. And you’re sure to fall in love with the quaint Francophile village of Franschhoek.
Apart from a delectable picnic lunch, you will be taken on an informative cellar tour and of course partake in wine tasting in each region.
The addition of a gentle cycle through the vineyards makes this a really special tour for cyclists.
We guarantee you’ll return to Cape Town feeling really relaxed and ‘rosy’!
