Stellenbosch Wine Tour in South Africa
When it comes to indulgences few kinds of food/drink tours compare with a good quality wine tour. Fortunately for us our last full day in South Africa was spent hopping from vineyard to vineyard in and around scenic Stellenbosch with Wine Flies. Aside from the scrumptious wine and food the true highlight of this tour was visiting unique properties that differed considerably from one another. Join us as we sip our way around some of South Africa's best vineyards.

Stellenbosch Wine Tour in South Africa Travel Video Transcript:
So we have a fun day planned today. We're actually doing a wine tour around Stellenbosch so we're just going to be driving through the countryside sipping on wine. Let's get started. And eating cheese.
So we're pairing some white wines with cheese. I don't know which one I'm more excited about. I think maybe the cheese.
And this is my favorite cheese so far. It is called White Rock with cranberry. It tastes a little bit like cheesecake.
The last sweet red wine we tried tasted a little bit like Christmas cake. It was delicious.
Good to the last drop.
So we just finished our first wine tasting here at Fairview. We each tried six different wines with cheese. I think we're feeling pretty happy right now aren't we?
It is eleven fourteen in the morning right now and I'm already well greased.
So we've now arrived at our second vineyard of the day. This one is called Moroti and it has more of a rustic family feel. So let's go check that one out.
So this particular vineyard has a lot of character. It has a specially rustic feel. And it has just been cool touring around here. Given some of the areas what appear to be permanent cobwebs. It is pretty amazing.
So this is our third vineyard and this particular red wine is straight from the barrel. Oh, take a sip.
It's good.
And for dessert we are what? Roasting marshmallows. Over an open fire.
We're just missing the chocolate and graham crackers. Roasted to perfection. It's hot. Is it good?
Delicious?
Alright, I get the next one.
And here is how I like mine. Nice and crispy all over. That's a mouth full.
Alright, so we just finished a delicious braai lunch and we're feeling quite stuffed. But the tour isn't over. We still have two more vineyards to visit and apparently there is Biltong and chocolate on the menu. So I am looking forward to that.
They're going to be carrying us away on wheel barrels by the time we're finished.
So we are now at our forth vineyard. Everyone is wearing hats. I'm not sure why but we're going to go drink some wine in our fancy hats.
We've moved on from cheese to lunch. And now we've got chocolate. And over here I've got a chili chocolate so apparently you don't taste it too much when you're chewing it but when it goes down. When you're swallowing it that is when you really feel the burn. So let's see if that is true.
I don't taste it so much now. Maybe take a sip of wine and see what happens. Yeah, as soon as you swallow it you feel the burn.
Those are nice aren't they? Oh, you're getting a puppy massage. Puppy massage.
So we have now arrived at our fifth and final winery of the day. To be honest they're all starting to blend together because we've been drinking way too much wine but there is still a little room for a few more glasses so let's go in and sample some more.
Alright, so we've had cheese and we've had chocolate with our wine and now it is time for Biltong.
Which is a type of South African jerky. This is awesome, high quality, fresh Biltong.
Final impressions is that was a fantastic tour. It is actually our very last day in South Africa and I couldn't think of a more relaxing way to finish things off. The wine was fantastic. All of the food was really good. We had some excellent cheeses, chocolate and Biltong and we had a huge feast for lunch, so what a great way to wrap things up and that is it for us in South Africa.
This is part of our Travel in South Africa series. We're making a series of videos showcasing South African culture, South African arts, South African foods, South African religion, South African cuisine and South African people.

Things to do in Stellenbosch, South Africa Travel Guide Video Transcript:
On our very first trip to South Africa we spent one day in Stellenbosch where we did a wine tour and hit up a total of 5 wineries. It was an action packed day but we knew we had only seen a fraction of what this place has to offer and we were itching to return! Fast forward two years, and we found ourselves with an invitation to come and experience Stellenbosch, this time with a week to spare. Naturally we said yes! This being the winelands meant that our itinerary was wine heavy, but we also got to see sample the food, visit the markets, check out the nightlife and get close to nature. The following is our travel guide to Stellenbosch, pour yourself a glass of wine, sit back, and join us on this ride!
In between all the feasting and vineyard hopping, we also found a bit of time to explore Stellenbosch itself. Stellenbosch is a charming town located in the Western Cape, and it’s the second oldest European settlement in the province after Cape Town. The streets are lined with oak trees, the buildings are all painted white, and you have a cool mix of Early Cape, Cape Dutch, and Victorian architecture.
And while Sam was off hiking, I did a biking tour of Stellenbosch with the Adventure Shop, where I learned a bit more about the town’s history, and got out in nature, before biking over to the Lanzerac Wine Estate where we met up with the group again. Here we had a light lunch featuring a spread of cheese, deli meats, fresh fruits, and of course, wine!
And just like that our week in Stellenbosch was over! I think it’s fair to say that we left a few pounds heavier, but with a newfound appreciation for South African wine and a taste of what the winelands have to offer. As always, we hope you enjoyed this travel guide and that it gave you a few ideas of things to do in Stellenbosch. If you have any other suggestions of cool things to see, eat, or experience, feel free to share those with travellers in the comments below. In the meantime we wish you happy travels and we’ll see you in Cape Town on our next video!
This is part of our Travel in South Africa video series showcasing South African food, South African culture, South African wine and South African cuisine.

Cape Town 2017 - Stellenbosch Wine Tour
The last day of my Cape Town adventure, I decided to go on a Wine Tour in Stellenbosch & Franschhoek. We visited 3 wine estates, which means we tasted 18 different wines. I felt a bit dizzy in the evening! Stellenbosch & Franschhoek are nice little cities - quiet with beautiful landscapes and good wine of course ! After we were done with the tour i decided to do something... more adventurous and it was a great decision. That was a lot of fun and a nice finish for the last day of my 14 days in Cape Town.
And saying goodbye is the saddest part of traveling for me... and what do you think is the saddest part of traveling?
