The Winelands are overflowing with vineyards, each producing unique wines with a range of flavours and tastes. One thing that’s often overlooked during a fleeting visit is the variety of ways one may explore the area while learning about a range of wine producing techniques. In addition to all the beautiful and unique vineyards, the great outdoors awaits you with lots of exciting activities for you to partake in.
There is no better way to really immerse yourself in a destination, than to exit the vehicle and to explore the great outdoors. The winelands offer incredible scenic valleys, expansive vineyards and beautiful mountain ranges.
To get some fun exercise in during your indulgent day, why not hop on an electronic Vine Bike and spend the morning weaving through the vineyards on this alternative mode of transport. During your cycle we will visit 1 wine estate to enjoy a cellar tour of an award winning wine estate along the way before continuing in to the town of Stellenbosch.
Our onward journey will lead us into the heart of Stellenbosch where we will explore on two feet, beginning at Dorp Street, one of the longest rows of old buildings surviving in any major town in southern Africa, it oozes with an old world charm. We will take a stroll down the street and admire the beautiful Cape Dutch architecture, restaurants, boutiques, and coffee shops before continuing through the heart of the Town.
Next, we will indulge in another wine tasting at Muratie Wine Estate. Muratie's rich history is captured in every nook and cranny. Wherever you are on the estate you cannot help being moved by a sense of the many generations that have Lived and worked on this estate.
We will sit down for a fine dining lunch at one of Stellenbosch's many picturesque wine estates, sit back and relax to enjoy a delicious lunch and wonderful views.
Winding down the day (and time allowing) your guide will suggest a smaller, boutique, and family-owned wine estate for a more intimate wine tasting to end the day. Possibly the likes of Muratie Wine Estate. Muratie's rich history is captured in every nook and cranny or perhaps Catherine Marshall or Ken Forrester Wines with a focus on sustainable farming.
