The Itinerary
Daily: Private Departures
-
Paarl
Depart Cape Town and head to Fairview Wine & Cheese, a working farm with a collection of micro-businesses all sharing a common goal - to create artisanal and sustainable produce, focusing on fine wine and cheese. Here you shall enjoy the Beryl Back Tasting experience, including eight wines and a selection of cheeses and olives.
-
Franschhoek
Continue into Franschhoek for a short visit and browse around town before heading to lunch (to own account) at a restaurant or wine estate carefully selected by your guide.
-
Stellenbosch
Travel along the beautiful Helshoogte Pass to the historic winemaking town of Stellenbosch with its canal-lined avenues in the shade of giant oak trees and beautifully preserved historic buildings before heading to Waterford Estate for a decadent finale. With the wine cellar built surrounding the courtyard, guests can observe the workings of the winery and get a true feel for the winemaking process without disrupting the tranquillity of their tasting. The Wine and Chocolate Tasting is a unique flavour experience. Kevin Arnold and Chocolatier Richard von Geusau have created a series of dark and milk chocolates that, when paired with their Shiraz, Cabernet Sauvignon and Natural Sweet wine, results in a flavour sensation unlike any other. Travel back to your hotel for return in the early evening.
