Cape Winelands & the Cederberg Mountains Holidays


africa
The spectacular Cape Winelands, located just east of Cape Town, are home to some of South Africa’s most historic and picturesque wine estates. Here, visitors can sample world-class vintages and gourmet local cuisine while soaking up breathtaking scenery of rolling vineyards framed by dramatic mountain backdrops.

Base yourself in vibrant Stellenbosch, known for its tree-lined streets, boutique galleries, cafés and rich Cape Dutch heritage, or in beautiful Franschhoek, celebrated for its charming French-inspired atmosphere, vintage wine tram and exceptional fine dining restaurants.

Further north along the coast lies the dramatic Cederberg Mountains, a rugged wilderness area renowned for its variety of indigenous flora, remarkable birdlife, ancient hiking trails and extraordinary sandstone rock formations.

Trailfinders offers a wide range of Cape Winelands and the Cederberg Mountains holidays, and our expert travel consultants are a mine of information about what to do here, often with first-hand travel experience. Whether you want to explore South Africa on a fly drive holiday, aboard the iconic luxury Rovos Rail, a sociable guided group tour, or are looking for advice on how to combine South Africa with a beach destination – they are the perfect people to ask.
