The town of Franschhoek—translated as ‘French corner’— is a picturesque exhibit of culture and history accompanied by culinary prestige. Set in a valley with views of the surrounding mountains and vineyards, people come from far and wide to visit this exquisite town. 

With a history extending over 300 years, Stellenbosch is the second oldest town and European settlement in South Africa after Cape Town. Combined with mountain backdrops and vineyards, the spectacular activities and features adorning this beautiful town is what many keep coming back to.

The Cape Winelands reside in a series of valleys and due to the area’s biodiversity, you will find everything from fynbos to the marvellous countryside to admire. Wine down 😉🍷(pun intended) and discover a complete guide to the Cape Winelands.
