Enjoy the most unforgettable and unique wine tastings around Cape Town. It’s not only about tasting the best wine. It’s more about the experience — to indulge in South Africa’s unbelievably beautiful scenery, learn from winemaking experts, and take a sip of the luxury life at the wine farms’ opulent estates. And there are a lot of wine farms to visit.
​
Explore the oldest wine estate of South Africa, Groot Constantia, founded in 1685. Visit includes the estate, the museum, the historical cellar, and a complete wine tasting experience.​ The dramatic oak-lined avenue takes you directly into the Historical core of the estate, where you’ll find the 17th century Manor House, arguably the finest surviving example of Cape Dutch architecture in South Africa, and the view from in front of this grand old homestead will most certainly put you in the perfect mind-set to experience what is easily the Cape’s finest estate.​

Experience a unique and leisurely way to see the Franschhoek Valley in a vintage style railway tram and open-air tram-bus stopping in at some of South Africa’s oldest and most distinguished wine estates. The Franschhoek wine tram tour is one of the best ways to discover the true essence of the Franschhoek Valley. Enjoy magnificent and world renowned wines from a region established over 300 years ago which is steeped in history.
