Stop At: Kirstenbosch National Botanical Garden, Newlands, Western Cape

We start our tour with a leisurely walk through the beautiful Kirstenbosch Botanical Gardens, ranked among the best gardens in the world and an UNESCO World Heritage site.

Stop At: Groot Constantia, Constantia, Western Cape

We visit Groot Constantia where we will do our first wine tasting of the day. This beautiful estate is South Africa's oldest wine farm, established by Simon van der Stel (governor of the Cape of Good Hope) more than 330 years ago. The renowned wines of Groot Constantia was enjoyed by Emperors and Kings such as Frederick the Great of Prussia and king of the French Louis Philippe. The wine was also served to Napoleon during his exile on the island of Saint Helena. We explore the Manor House, an original Cape Dutch homestead which houses a cultural history museum.

Steenberg is the Cape's very first farm and was established in 1682.

Stop At: Cape Point Vineyards Tasting Room, Noordhoek, Western Cape

After lunch we drive to Cape Point Vineyards in Noordhoek (The Northern Corner) where we will do our third and last wine tasting of the day. Cool breezes from the sea make for a slow growing season, with a late harvest that results in a truly unique Sauvignon Blanc that is recognised across the globe for it’s rich minerality, structure and tone.
