What to expect
Suider Paarl
On the start of this Cape Winelands tour we will depart from Cape Town after picking you up from your hotel and head towards the famous town of Stellenbosch. Less than an hour’s drive from Cape Town, the region north of Stellenbosch has earned international acclaim not only for its Paarl wines but also the breathtaking beauty of its natural surroundings. The name Paarl means ‘pearl’ and reflects the way the ancient granite mountains, which early Dutch settlers called ‘den Diamont ende Peerlbergh’ (‘the diamond and pearl mountain’), glisten in the distance.
