Experience Overview:
Full Day Horse Riding Trail With Wine Tastings In FranschhoekThis trail is perfect for the adventurous spirit! The full day wine tour is truly the ultimate way to experience the magnificent Cape Winelands Wine Route. We will take you through some of the most scenic country sides and high into the mountains traversing through various Wine Estates and nature reserves. Depending on your riding ability, we will ride at all paces during this ride covering some of the most popular wine Estates including; Vrede en Lust, Babylonstoren, Plaisir De Merle, and Anura.
We will have winetastings at two of the above estates and lunch (for own account). The estates chosen will be a surprise for you and will obviously depend on your riding abilities, but I can assure you it will exceed all expectations. What better way to explore the winelands and secrete culinary taste sensations, but on horseback. This is like no other as you get to ride privately deep into these beautiful farms not normally open the public. This ride offers ample opportunities for trots and canters and even the odd gallop however the overall pace is determined by the riders’ level of confidence and safety always comes first.
