Experience the Cape in the most enjoyable way: via the Cape Winelands, the largest wine producing region in the Western Cape. The Winelands is a playground for students, business executives, tourists, lovers and friends just looking for a fabulous, stylishly relaxed time in nature. You will get to taste many world-famous and award-winning wines. The Helderberg Winelands area includes Somerset West, Strand and Gordon's Bay, while Franschhoek, Paarl and Stellenbosch fall into the Stellenbosch Winelands area. These areas are also well-known for their cuisine, and Franschhoek is called the "gourmet capital of the world". The Winelands' list of options is endless, with a selection of over two hundred cellars. Most hotels, lodges and guest houses will assist in deciding on the best route for you. Most of these wine farms have excellent, award-winning restaurants. Visiting the countless estates, you will get to see the most beautiful parts of the Cape as you pass scenic landscapes and splendidly restored Cape Dutch, Georgian and Victorian buildings. Experience olive farms, country farm stalls, hand-crafted cheeses, the Fynbos floral kingdom, wire art, Pinot Noir honey, hand-blown glass and historical towns and monuments, such as Franschhoek, Paarl, Constantia, Wellington and Stellenbosch, the second oldest town in South Africa. Most of the wine farms offer cellar tours, where you will get a chance to meet the winemakers and see the factory from up close, as well as a glimpse of the Cape's rich history. |
