If you are lucky and the weather is nice (it usually is) when you fly into Cape Town, you will get a wonderful view of the beautiful vineyard landscape, The Cape Winelands. It is actually quite a dramatic landscape with the highest peak at 2247 meters (7,372 ft).
When you travel around the vineyards, you will experience a mixture of mountain passes and lush plains, in the warm Swartland not always so lush. Lots of diversity and sometimes dramatic.
The wines also have lot of diversity. There are dramatic differences between the wines from the cool south coast – chardonnay and pinot noir from the lovely Walker Bay – and the wines further north from a climate that is more like Spain. And yet, only a few hours away.
The wines from South Africa are fantastic, maybe one of the world’s most underrated wine countries. We will also take you to some very different and unexpected gastronomic experiences, including perhaps South Africa’s best winery restaurant. Need I mention that we lodge well, very well, e.g. swimming pools in all hotels, so you can fully enjoy the hot days with a relaxing evening dip.
