Kirstenbosch to Constantia Valley Wine Walk

This walk begins in the world-renowned Kirstenbosch Botanical Gardens, at the foot of Table Mountain. Here, Geoff sets the scene with stories of the Khoi Khoi people who once moved freely across this landscape, living off indigenous plants and the rhythms of nature. As the path winds out of the gardens and into the Constantia Valley, the narrative shifts through the arrival of the Dutch settlers, the shaping of the land into vineyards, and the rise of Constantia as the oldest wine-producing region in the Southern Hemisphere. Along the way, Geoff brings the layers of history to life: how traditional plant medicine was used for healing to how Constantia’s wines became coveted in European courts. The walk ends at one of Constantia’s great wine estates, where guests enjoy a well-earned wine tasting. This is not just a scenic walk. This is a story of continuity and change, told on the very ground where it unfolded.

Great tour around Cape Town

Jojo was a perfect driver for us, he's nice and speaks an excellent French (and English as well). Robben Island, Kirstenbosch Gardens and Groot Constantia are great sites that deserve to be visited. Jacques

Robben Island, Kirstenbosch Gardens and Groot Constantia Tour

Nadia_S, Sep 2024

Soggy but memorable trip

First the positives. Jojo was a pleasant guide. He was punctual and a safe driver. Robbens Island experience really touched us in terms of the way Tory outlined things on the bus and Sparks an ex political prisoner described things to us in the prison. I had no idea the suffering and cruelty they experienced and hearing it from someone who lived it put it on a whole other levels. Unfortunately the weather was pretty bad when we went- the wind and the rain made for pretty rough going heading to the island that was exponentially worse coming back. That weather also made for less than conducive to explore the Gardens much. We skipped the wine tasting with the weather. Tour would be great with good weather so would recommend- you just cannot plan for Mother Nature!

Robben Island, Kirstenbosch Gardens and Groot Constantia Tour

Norman_N, Jul 2024

A Great Day In Cape Town!

Georgeo, our tour guide, was professional, friendly and accommodating. Robben island was educational . Both the Island Staff tour guide and the tour guide that had been a political prisoner, offered a clear picture of the Island’s history, both recent and distant. The gardens were beautiful, even though it’s winter here. The food at Moyo offered the perfect comfort food for the time of year. Groot Constancia wineries offered a wine tasting of 5 of their wines. Each wine delivered a pleasant and distinct set of flavourful characteristics. We finished with the Groot Constana dessert wine that was once popular with both Napoleon and Jane Austin. This wine, I believe, is up there and perhaps better than some the best Ice wine, Port or Tokaji wines that I have had the chance to try. Thank you Shine the Way Tour’s.
