Overview

A unique tour that exposes clients to South African wines and wineries. Clients learn how wine is produced in South Africa in comparison to the rest of the world. It brings the South African wine mastery right to the clients.

A wine tasting tour is not only about wine tasting. It is also about the beautiful wineries in the amazing landscapes of the Western Cape province. It is also about the ambience, the dramatic mountains, the hospitality of South Africans.
It is also about learning how to pair wine with cheese, biltong (beef jerky), olives and delicatessen. Its also about the history of the French Hugenouts-those who brought the culture of wine production since 1671.

The amazing towns of Stellenbosch with its lined Oak trees along the streets. Art and craft. The bustling town with an international student population. Franschoek, "food and wine capital" of South Africa. Paarl one of the oldest towns in South Africa and home to one of the two largest rock outcrop in the World.
