Overview
There is no better way to encounter wildlife than on a horseback. The horses know their routine and thus making it possible for first time horse riders to take part in this amazing activity. A private vehicle will pick you up from your hotel in Cape town and you will head straight to Aquila Game reserve through the hugenote tunnel and passing through the wine growing regions of Worcester and De doorns. Upon arrival at Aquila, you will be served with welcoming drinks and ushered to the restaurants where you will have your world class buffet breakfast. Your horseback safari will commence shortly after breakfast and afterwards you will be served with a buffet lunch before we leave Aquila for your wine tasting in the Paarl wine region. After the wine and cheese pairing at Fairview, you will be dropped off at your hotel in Cape town to complete your horse back safari and wine tasting day.

What to expect
Touwsrivier
6h
2 hours north of Cape town is Cape town's closest and most famous wildlife game reserve, Aquila. Situated on 10000-hectare farm, Aquila is the closest hope of having the big five once again roaming the Western Cape lands of South Africa after over 400 years of extinction. As expected with any wildlife rehabilitation centers, the Aquila reserve is not fully wild as animals are fed to a certain extent and predators are separated from other animals and at the same time giving guest a chance to ride horses in a reserve full of Rhinos, hippos, Buffalos and many more. The horse ride is roughly an hour to 2 hours long. After the horse safari, you will be treated with a buffet lunch before you leave Aquila Safari for your wine tasting in Paarl
Fairview Wine and Cheese
1h · Admission ticket included
Fairview is located in the Paarl wine making region of the Cape winelands, just 25 minutes Northeast of Stellenbosch town and 5 minutes east of the N1. Fairview offers Cape town's most famous cheese and wine pairing, and you will be able to take part in this experience before you return to Cape town where you will be dropped off at your accommodation.
