The experience
About this tour
See Franschhoek the way it's best experienced: on foot, between the vineyards, with a glass waiting at every stop. Our guided Franschhoek wine walk covers 7km through the valley, with nine tastings at three estates, a tuk tuk ride and a farm-style lunch at La Cotte Heritage Farm.
It's a slower, more personal way to explore the Franschhoek Valley than touring by car. The route takes in orchards, vineyard paths, country lanes and a riverside trail, and your private guide shares the history, the wines and the stories of the valley along the way.
