Art and Wine in Cape Town, Private tour

Arrive at Cape Town International Airport, where you will meet your driver-guide, who will transfer you to your hotel and assist with the check-in procedure. If you’re feeling knackered after the flight, you can stay in the hotel to put your feet up and make the most of the available services. But if you’re itching to start exploring this fascinating city, then hit the streets and make your own way towards those tourist attractions, restaurants or shops. Perhaps visit the city centre with its many historical buildings and different architectural style and maybe enjoy a trip with the cable car to the top of Table Mountain. The Victoria & Alfred Waterfront is also worth a visit. Here you will find numerous bars, restaurants, boutiques and shops, cinemas and the aquarium. Outside the amphitheater, there is regular live entertainment for you to enjoy. (Activities are recommendations only, not included).

After a leisurely breakfast, explore the beautifully arranged streets of Cape Town on foot. The City Bowl is a good place to start in order to experience the town’s galleries and exhibitions, such as AVA, the Association for Visual Arts, which supports young talent. Enjoy an art walk consisting of visits to Gallery MOMO, well-known for its sculptures and abstract mega installations. Continue to Gallery F, the perfect place to admire great photography and art collections. The South Africa National Gallery is a true highlight and the end of the official art walk. After the tour, enjoy some leisure time and go gallery hopping on your own on Loop Street. When you feel tired, head back to your hotel.

Start the day with a delicious breakfast, followed by a visit to Oude Libertas, located in Stellenbosch. The Art Gallery at Oude Libertas offers both aspiring and established artists a platform to showcase their work. After exploring the inspiring art gallery, savour a delicious wine tasting. Continue your art hunting in Stellenbosch’s town centre, walking along Stellenbosch’s Dorpstraat, where some leisure time will give you the chance to discover first-class galleries on your own. Then, proceed to Spier Wine Estate, one of the finest wineries in the Cape, as well as the host of one of the most extensive contemporary art collections in the country. From the farm’s public spaces to displays in the manor house, hotel and wine tasting centre, the Spier Wine Estate has much to offer its visitors. And art is as much part of Spier as good food and fine wine. The works of art are rotated every year to give exposure to as many artists as possible, and to keep the spaces fresh for visitors. Spier cellar is both functional and beautiful, and it provides an excellent wine tasting experience combined with a cold cut and cheese platter for an early dinner. Wine tasting, cold cut and cheese platter are included.

Afterwards, visit the Kirstenbosch Botanical Garden, perhaps one of the most beautiful botanical gardens in the world.
