Southern Africa is a land of fascinating contrasts, natural wonders, abundant wildlife and intoxicating scenic beauty. Apart from that the Cape Wine lands is a scenically enchanting region of dramatic mountains and fertile valleys, planted with vines stretching across rolling fields. Here farmers enjoy perfect conditions and produce of the best wines in the world.
Wine lands and Garden routes of Cape Town in South Africa are full of enthusiasm and hopefully here one can get infected with the “South African wine virus”. Franschhoek vineyard lies in a beautiful contained valley; this picturesque little town was founded by the French Huguenots in 1688. The town has become a popular tourist destination with boutique guest houses and many of the Cape’s best restaurants with not forgettable the great wines.
Available Attractions
Cape Town is southern Africa's most beautiful, most romantic and most visited city. Indeed, few urban centres anywhere can match its setting along the mountainous Cape Peninsula spine, which slides into the Atlantic Ocean.Experience the city's rich floral heritage and beaches with distinct qualities, drink atop the Table Mountain, mingle through the Green market square and ferry down to Robin Island Museum that gives you a sense of the city's heritage.
Franschhoek is a wine lovers delight… the valley has a deep vigneron tradition, dating back to the 16th century. Some of South Africa's oldest and most famous wine estates are found here. These Grand Oldie Cape-Dutch farmhouses and wine stores have watched proudly over the land for centuries; and the Vineyards & Wine Estates still produce some of South Africa's top wines today.
