Wine Route Half Day Tour in Cape Town
Description
Refuges from France brought their finely tuned centuries-old viticultural skills. Their settlement in the 1680s around the newly established villages of Stellenbosch gave birth to the wine industry. Join us on a Wine and Cheese tasting experience in South Africa's best Wine Region. We visit two prestigious wine estates in and around Stellenbosch. Feast your eyes on spectacular mountain scenery, enchanting architectural buildings, and lush fertile valleys.

Itinerary
Let yourself be guided through the superb wine cellars of this old estate, feeling the passion of the winemakers and understanding the process of transforming a vineyard field into wine. Treat yourself to a tasting of the best wines and cheeses of the estate.
The vineyards of Stellenbosch, only 20 minutes from Cape Town, offer a beautiful landscape, different from the landscape of the Cape Peninsula. Many grapes are grown in the area, producing wines such as Chenin Blanc, Shiraz, Pinotage, and local champagne. The town of Stellenbosch is a human-sized, very dynamic town with a very famous university. There are many activities such as visits to wine cellars and wine tastings. You will have the opportunity to buy wines directly from the producer to take home and enjoy the wonderful vintages of the region after your visit.
Marianne Wine Estate is located at the foot of the Simonsberg outside the town of Stellenbosch. Welcome to a unique wine experience in a superb environment. Taste the wine and discover their French know-how.

The wine tour was good. Wellington was amazing. Just one hiccup with the description. It leads you to believe you will stop in Stellenbosch for lunch or to walk around but that is not the case. Luckily, it was just the 4 of us so Wellington was able to accommodate our need for food.
