Stellenbosch

Activity Description

This tour combines the beautiful scenery and sites of Historic Stellenbosch with excellent wine pairings and some healthy outdoor exercise.

The tour starts 9:00 at the Adventureshop office. Each rider will collect a bike and helmet to suit their size. E-Bikes also available. The guide will have space in the backpack for those who would like to buy wine en-route.
The tour starts with a historic tour of Stellenbosch, visiting some of the historic sites in town. We will cycle through Stellenbosch and head to the scenic Jonkershoek valley. A winding road through oak and poplar forests will take you to a wine estate nestled in the valley bottom, here you can take in the stunning views while doing wine tasting of award winning wines on an island in a lake.
On the way out of the valley, you will stop at another wine estate which sports beautiful grounds and historic Cape Dutch architecture. Here we will do a cellar tour before we start our Chocolate and Wine pairing that will make your taste buds tingle.

After the tasting we will head back into Stellenbosch Town via the Stellenbosch University before ending the tour again at our office

Fantastisch!!! Super goede gids. Weet veel van Stellenbosch en omgeving. Prachtige Wijnproeverijen!!! Doen!!!!! - Ina Sweep


We had some enjoyable hours with our tourguide Daniel throughout Stellenbosch and some wineries. Daniel is very pleasant, well educated and helpfull. Even though we've been around Stellenbosch many times before, we were surprised to learn so many new information about Stellenbosch. And also the chocolate-wine pairing in Lanzarac was a wonderful new experience for us. In the end Daniel brought us back safe and sound to our starting point. We really had a great time. - Keuser Andrea
