- Kirstenbosch National Botanical Garden - Situated on the eastern slopes of Table Mountain, Kirstenbosch is internationally acclaimed as one of the seven most magnificent botanical gardens in the world. The 528 hectares’ estate includes a cultivated garden and a nature reserve. The developed garden displays collections of southern African plants including many rare and endangered species. There are also visitor facilities in the garden including restaurants, a nursery, a gift shop, a bookshop and a permanent Zimbabwean stone sculpture exhibition.
- Groot Constantia - We then proceed to the historical Groot (meaning Big) Constantia wine estate. Groot Constantia is the oldest wine producing farm in South Africa since 1685 and even after the farm had changed ownership, it still maintains the production of high quality, award-winning wine. The farm produces 70% Red and 30% White cultivars. We can recommend a beautiful lunch either at Simon’s Restaurant or at Jonkershuis Restaurant, both set on this exquisite wine estate.
- Constantia Glen Winery - We begin our Simon van der Stel wine tour with Buitenverwachting (meaning Beyond expectation) wine estate. This too, had formed part of the original Constantia farm which was found by Simon van der Stel. Even though it changed ownership, they retraced the roots of the estate and restored the historical buildings on the farm. The farm produces 8 % Red, 90% White and 2 % Rose cultivars.

The Cape Winelands are likely some of the most stunning rural landscapes on earth, featuring mountain, ocean, and vineyard vistas. Discover the history of the Constantia Winelands on our exclusive tour that includes stops at the five wine estates that used to be part of the original Simon van der Stel Constantia wine farm: Groot Constantia, Klein Constantia, Buitenverwachting, Constantia Uitsig, and Steenberg. We suggest having a lovely lunch with a view of the vineyards and pairing it with some of South Africa’s top wines. Following the winery visit and tasting session, we journey on to one of the ten National Botanic Gardens that represent five out of six of South Africa’s distinct biomes. Here, you will delve into the world’s most abundant floral kingdom while gaining knowledge about the area’s history and natural legacy. Besides, you’ll have the chance to enjoy lush scenery and fresh air in the garden. Make sure to capture beautiful images of the flowers, birds, and - if fortune smiles on you - mammals.
