The experience
About this tour
Discover the Cape's oldest wine valley on foot. Our guided Constantia wine walk covers 6km through the Constantia Valley, linking three of the Cape's most storied estates, Groot Constantia, Klein Constantia and Buitenverwachting, with nine tastings and a harvest platter lunch along the way.
The route is easy and mostly level, following shaded avenues and private vineyard paths between the estates. Along the way, your guide brings to life more than 330 years of winemaking in the Constantia Valley, just 20 minutes from central Cape Town.
