Yes, it is time to
taste the excellent wines of our Winelands, and to visit
some of our history. We will visit three towns: Paarl,
Stellenbosh and Franshoek.
This area of the
cape offers wines for all tastes and also a culinary
experience unlike anywhere else.
We Start by
visiting Paarl which is where the Afrikaaners
come from. We do a Wine and cheese tasting at a very
well known wine farm.
We then head to Franshoek, which is were the
French Huggenoots were brough by the Dutch during the
colonization. They are the ones starting the Viticulture
in the Cape and their skills and history can be appretiaced
here. We will enjoy a second wine tasting and excellent
Cuisine for lunch at one of the many restaurants of the
area.
We head to
Stellenbosch after lunch and visit the second dutch
settlement in the cape after Cape Town. You will get the
chance to walk through an entire street of houses declared
national monuments and will be able to go back in History.
Here we will do another Wine tasting with Chocolate
at a farm which hosts a Raptor Sanctuary. You will
get the chance to get really close to these amazing birds to
complete the experience..
