Our tour is ideal for guests of all kinds, from families (Half Day Family Tour) to solo travellers, who want an authentic experience of wine tasting in Franschhoek. While only for half a day, the tour is packed with delightful activities. This includes two wine estate visits, a pairing, and a brief historical monument viewing. The tour kicks off mid-morning at the Basse Provence Country Estate. We`ll then hit the road where you can enjoy the fresh air on your face and the gentle sunshine on your back. Bask in the peaceful ambience of the countryside and the aesthetic sights of Franschhoek. While we traverse steady roads and trails, this is an ideal time to unwind and briefly tuck away the remaining points of your itinerary. With the surrounding foliage blurring as we whisk by, absorb the history, ambience, and fresh air of Franschhoek. We`ll take a breather to indulge in a paired wine tasting at a small vineyard that still holds the name of one of the original 7 Franschhoek farms, before winding our way back to our second quaint estate in Franschhoek.
