Overview

On our Half Day Horseback Wine Tour we ride across the wine farms surrounding Stellenbosch, tasting wine along the way! The views are truly spectacular with a backdrop of Table Mountain, and Stellenbosch winelands. We regularly see breeding pairs of South-Africa's national bird, the Blue Crane, as well as some small antelope.
We stop for a light lunch and wine tasting at our home base ( Vredenheim ) before heading out again in the afternoon to explore more winefarms.
Spectacular scenery is literally around every corner, and there is no better way to experience the Cape Winelands than between the ears of a horse!
Our horses are absolutely the heart of our business. We work with them energetically through connection and natural horsemanship which means they are well trained, and gentle natured. We never ride the same trail twice, so expect a wonderful ride!
Please note a weight limit of 95kgs applies.

Activity itinerary

Our Half day Horse back wine tour is possibly the best blend of great horses, fabulous food and great wine imaginable! If you only have 1 day in the winelands, this is the best way to spend it! We set off from our base Vredenheim winery as soon as everyone is comfortable & happy with their steeds. We ride across 4 winefarms where we have the opportunity to see local deer, endless bird species and 360° views of the Winelands and the spectacular mountains around it. Experienced riders will have plenty opportunities for trots & canters through the vineyards, while less experienced riders will be kept safe by sticking to a gentle stroll. The views are spectacular, and the horses are well trained, so regardless of your experience, everyone gets a great ride. Lunch is usually at Boschkloof estate or Vredenheim estate. (lunch and wine tasting for own account) Guests are invited to relax under ancient oak trees, enjoy the gardens, enjoy splendid food and sip on some of our best wine, all while the horses relax nearby. It truely is a slice of heaven! A crackling fire will be going in winter. After lunch we mount up and take a gentle stroll back home.
