Enjoy the convenience of a hop-on hop-off tour while exploring the Stellenbosch wine route with the Vine Hopper's Northern Route. This circuit runs on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays, stopping at six wineries along the way. Choose which wineries to visit and how long to stay.

Drive Stellenbosch yourself, with a GPS audio guide that plays automatically as you go. Your booking unlocks the whole region in the free Wine Trails app: pick your date and starting point — Stellenbosch town is the natural centre, or roll in from Cape Town or Somerset West — choose the cellar doors you want, and the app builds your personal route with turn-by-turn narration. 60 stories cover 37 cellar doors across the Annandale red wine mile, the Helshoogte Pass and the quiet Bottelary Road: as you pass Delheim you'll hear how, one afternoon in 1971, Spatz Sperling, Frans Malan of Simonsig and Neil Joubert of Spier opened their gates to visitors and invented South African wine tourism. No group, no schedule, no guide — pause for a long tasting, replay anything, and the audio keeps working when the signal drops over the mountain passes. You'll need a car and a designated driver; tastings are booked and paid directly with the wineries.
