About Discover the treasures of Stellenbosch

Discover the treasures of Stellenbosch Icon

The picturesque town of Stellenbosch in the heart of the Western Cape Wine Region is less than an hour's drive from Cape Town and the perfect place to explore on a day trip from the city. The town is steeped in history (it was founded in the late 17th century) and is a sightseeing spot of note. Explore the famous Dorp Street in the centre of Stellenbosch to view historic buildings in pristine condition, quaint galleries and interesting bric-a-brac shops. The town boasts a number of excellent restaurants offering traditional and European cuisine (and of course some of the best wines you will ever taste!). Wine tours and wine tasting is synonymous with Stellenbosch. But being home to one of SA's largest universities means Stellenbosch is also student town with an active nightlife. You can pick and choose where to go pub-crawling, clubbing or listen to live music.
