OVERVIEW

Drive in an open-air 4x4 Jeep through the stunningly beautiful countryside on the Atlantic coast of the Cape Peninsula and enjoy an inspiring wine tasting along the way. You will follow a circuitous, immensely picturesque route around secluded coves, through quaint seaside villages and along legendary Chapman’s Peak Drive, which skirts soaring Chapman’s Peak. At times, the narrow twisting road will hug a sheer cliff on one side and the rocky coastline on the other. In time, you will arrive at Groot Constantia, the oldest wine-producing farm in South Africa, having been founded in 1685. There you will enjoy a tasting of premium wines thoughtfully paired with handcrafted chocolates. The wines may include a Shiraz varietal, a white blend made with Semillon and Sauvignon Blanc grapes and a complex rosé. On the return drive, you will pass landmarks such as Mostert’s Mill and the University of Cape Town.
