Highlights

This is leisurely cycling at its best. Easy-paced with your loved ones to enjoy. Our friendly guides will take you through some of the most exquisite wine farms in South Africa. We have special access to famous farms such as Mont Rochelle, Grand Provence, La Bri, La Bougonne, Holden Manz and may others. Half day tours include two wine tastings on different wineries with time for an optional lunch (own account) on a third signature wine farm. We've also included a wine pairing where you can try spectacular wines with homemade chocolate or traditional South African biltong. A relaxed and rewarding day you will never forget! Our carefully constructed routes among the vines and backroads allow for plenty of flexibility. It’s your day – we can shorten or lengthen the distance no problem.

About Franschhoek

Franschhoek is a wine village in a mountain-ringed valley of the Western Cape, founded by French Huguenots, with Cape Dutch houses and fine restaurants.

Franschhoek, Dutch for French Corner, lies in a valley ringed by mountains in the Cape Winelands, east of Stellenbosch, and was settled in 1688 by Huguenots, French Protestants who fled persecution. The Huguenot Memorial Museum and a large monument at the head of the main road tell their story, and white Cape Dutch gabled houses stand among vineyards, oak trees and rose gardens.
