Stellenbosch Trip Overview
We specially hand-pick the wineries included to provide a balanced experience between modern and old-fashioned wineries, and also tie the experience in to the history and scenic beauty of the Stellenbosch wine route. We can also consider requests from guests for certain wineries when the book the tour, provided it fits into the route and scope of a group tour (i.e. if they are able to accommodate groups). Also, the larger the group, the more surprise experiences we can throw in – like a pairing experience, a Franschhoek winery, or a microbrewery or brandy distillery – at no extra cost!
