The Cape Winelands
The fertile green valleys of the Cape Winelands, origin of some of the world’s most popular wines, is a must see experience in close proximity to Cape Town.
Most Cape wine estates are characterised by classic Cape Dutch- style buildings and vast vineyards, with picturesque mountains as a backdrop. There is also a distinct European in uence in a number of regions, thanks to the arrival of French Huguenot, Dutch and German settlers during the 16th century.
Wine tasting, winemaking tours, excellent cuisine and historical landmarks collectively create an irresistible attraction in a region which boasts some of the most majestic scenery in South Africa.
