S. African Winery
Going on the African Elegant Adventure in June 2024. Can anyone who has recently taken the same tour tell me what winery is visited while in Cape Town?

Forgot to mention that we'll be arriving a day early and are considering taking a wine tour, but will want to avoid going to the same winery that Tauck will take us
We did this tour in November of 2021. The tour visited Steenberg vineyard where we had dinner. Perhaps someone who has been on a more recent trip can confirm if this is still the winery used.
Hi, FLboy! Tauck doesn’t take you to the actual Winelands District, so if you go to Stellenbosch, Paarl or Franschhoek, you won’t be duplicating anything. The restaurant that you visit with Tauck is in Constantia, a wine-producing suburb of Cape Town, and you head out there towards the evening so you don’t see a lot of scenery. The grounds of the restaurant and hotel though are very pretty. But the stunning scenery is in the Winelands District, so definitely don’t miss that if you are interested in wineries and scenery!
Hi, JohnS - We were there in the fall of 2022. I don’t believe we went to Steenberg - I checked out their website and it doesn’t look familiar. Looking at my photos, I think we went to a place called Hohenort. Maybe someone else can chime in with a name. But it was definitely in Constantia, not the Cape Winelands District.
I went back to some pictures I had, and discovered a picture I snapped of the dinner menu. It had the Steenberg wine accompaniments.
We did this trip in August of last year. Our wine pairing dinner was at Cellars Hohenhort. As noted above, it is in the Constantia region. It was a fun evening.
