“Half-day private wine tour through Stellenbosch visiting 2-3 award-winning estates with guided tastings, cellar tours, and mountain views.
About This Experience
Explore South Africa's premier wine region without committing a full day. This half-day private tour whisks you from Cape Town to the oak-lined streets of Stellenbosch in under an hour. Visit 2-3 carefully selected wine estates — from boutique family farms to grand Cape Dutch manor houses — enjoying guided tastings of Pinotage, Chenin Blanc, Cabernet Sauvignon, and blends you won't find at home. Your wine-savvy guide shares the history of winemaking in the Cape, dating back to 1679. Between estates, admire the dramatic backdrop of the Simonsberg and Helderberg mountains. Perfect for travellers with limited time or those wanting an afternoon free for other Cape Town activities.
