Fairview Wine and Cheese

Suid-Agter Paarl Road, Suider Paarl, 7646

.Leave Cape Town behind and travel in a luxurious minivan to the Stellenbosch wine area, which is renowned for its Mediterranean climate and rich soils that contribute to the region's annual production of millions of litres of wine. Reboard your minivan with your knowledgeable guide and drive farther northwest to the Paarl wine area, which is home to renowned winemakers like Fairview. Visit the Fairview Wine Estate and sample a number of their well-known white wines and cheeses. Since this is a private trip, you are free to alter your daily schedule as you see fit. Take your time and meander the route, staying a little longer if you'd like to or perhaps stopping at cute places along the way. We advise getting there early for a master tasting of wine with cheese and olive oil, which will expand your palette and imagination to tastes you never imagined were possible.

On weekends, the neighbourhood farmer's market tempts shoppers with its vibrant stalls, enticing fragrances, and live music. You'll have time to learn about the history of the French Huguenots who immigrated in the seventeenth century, perhaps see an impromptu church choir performance in the street, browse the shops selling trinkets and bric-a-brac along the main street, or have a charcuterie plate and delectable local fare.

On the return trip to Cape Town, which will take place in the early evening, take it easy. The precise schedule is liable to alter, and it might occasionally proceed in a different sequence. This customised private tour will be conducted just for you. The tour's highlights that interest you the most can be given additional time on the customizable schedule, or you can swap them out for different stops.
