South Africa Luxury Tour

Your luxury South Africa tour will start with a VIP meet and greet at Cape Town International Airport and a private road transfer to your accommodation at Four Rosmead Guesthouse.

Built in 1903, this historic hotel is located on the slopes of Table Mountain in tranquil and leafy Oranjezicht. Upon arrival, you can unwind in the heated swimming pool, meander the landscaped gardens or start your exploration of Cape Town. Four Rosmead Guesthouse is within walking distance of Green Market Square, and only 10 minutes by car from the V&A Waterfront, Kirstenbosch Gardens, as well as the Clifton and Camps Bay beaches.

Scale the iconic flat-topped plateau of Table Mountain, enjoy the great outdoors at Kirstenbosch National Botanical Garden and learn about the country's difficult modern history with educational trips to Robben Island (where Nelson Mandela was incarcerated, along with many other political prisoners during the Apartheid era) and the District Six Museum.

Today, you'll leave Cape Town behind and head to the scenic Cape Winelands via a private road transfer (journey time around one hour) to Franschhoek. You'll be staying at La Petite Ferme Wine Estate, a luxury accommodation, restaurant and wine cellar.

Franschhoek is arguably the most historic, beautiful and captivating town in the Cape Winelands and there is plenty to enjoy here. Participate in a Vine Orientation & Tasting session, which includes a tour of La Petite Ferme’s vineyards and a selection of tipples to sample, accompanied by complimenting canapés. Rent a bike to explore the Winelands even further, then treat yourself to a pampering with the Mobile Beauty to You spa - a mobile spa that allows you to enjoy beauty and relaxation treatments in the comfort of your own room.

Of course, the main draw here is the exceptional food and drink, so don't miss the fresh country cuisine on offer, with seasonal dishes paired with wines from the estate.
