DAY 1 – CAPE TOWN
Private transfer from Cape Town airport to your hotel for 4 nights, a Victorian gem nestled at the foot of Table Mountain.
Get together for an ice-breaker with fellow food and wine enthusiasts before a welcome dinner with informative locals, who’ll set the scene and get your culinary pulse going.

DAY 2 – CAPE TOWN
Full day around the scenic Cape Peninsula: A cliff-hugging drive along Chapman’s Peak, a coffee in Noorhoek, a hand’s-on foraging experience near Cape Point, penguins on their dedicated beach at Boulders, sun-downers and dinner in the iconic Constantia Valley at a stellar spot with breath-taking views.
On a wild-food immersion led by a forager of note, track the edible landscape located between the fynbos mountainside and the Atlantic Ocean. Learn how to create delicious food from indigenous  ingrediants.
This food & nature inspired experience ends with a seasonal harvest lunch paired with botanical drinks.

DAY 3 – CAPE TOWN
A full day foodie tour around the heart of the city: First up, get your bearings from the top of Table Mountain. Then, get an inkling of ‘’how history finds its way into our saucepans” as you are shown over the historic Company’s Garden where the first vegetables were planted that replenished passing ships for centuries.
In the colourful Bo-Kaap Quarter smell the spices & sample traditional Cape Malay specialities from artisanal producers. End the day in buzzy Bree Street. Dine locally in Kloof Street. 

DAY 4 – CAPE TOWN
First visit a garden that’s a non-profit project celebrating local food, culture and community through urban farming. Then taste its produce in the eye-catching Waterfront locale. The OZCF market (The Oranjezicht City Farm) is a cheerleader for small-scale farming and artisanal culture.
The rest of the day is open. Stay on in the V&A Waterfront. Why not take a guided tour of Zeitz MOCAA / have high tea at The Silo / simply stroll around the Waterfront’s myriad offerings … 

DAY 5 – THE WINELANDS
Head out to the Winelands. Highlights include visiting the country’s prime wine estate Vergelegen, a tutored olive oil tasting at Morgenster, a private winetasting with an awesome view, strolling the historic oak-lined streets of Stellenbosch, dining under its oldest fruit-producing vine at the hands of a chef whose dishes express South African heritage.
Stay at a boutique hotel in the heart of the picturesque village of Franschhoek — the country’s proclaimed ”culinary capital” for 2-nights.

DAY 6 – THE WINELANDS
At Babylonstoren’s beguiling garden, based on the 1652 Dutch East India Company’s Garden that replenished passing ships with fresh food for over 150 years, its plants and wines tell stories of our history, people and food. At Bartinney, have a multi-sensory experience, comparing wines & fynbos. At Tokara, lunch with a view over two glorious valleys. At Mullineaux, taste accolade-notching wines on the Leeu estate.
Dinner is at your leisure. The choices are plentiful. (You could sample chef Scot Kirton’s acclaimed creativity at La Petite Colombe, a Condé Nast Best Hotel Restaurant winner.)

DAY 7 – THE WEST COAST
In the Swartland, join a much-talked about, maverick winemaker and his staff over their daily lunch.
The end destination is Paternoster, a charming fishing village about two hours north of Cape Town, with wide white beaches washed by the Atlantic ocean.
Stay at one of Condé Nast’s favourite finds in South Africa, an airy seaside escape that exudes beachy minimalism. Dine at its restaurant that showcases the best of West Coast flavours and is a tribute to the area’s Khoi/San tribal history.
Spend 2-nights at a beach hideaway where the interiors are simple but plush so as to maximize the focus on the seascape right outside your window.

DAY 8 – THE WEST COAST
Local culinary rock-star, Kobus Van der Merwe is creating world-class food using ‘unfamiliar’ local Strandveld flavours. Getting into his rustic-chic Wolfgat restaurant is the aim, though difficult.
If thwarted, foodie fans can opt for Oep ve Koep, a deli and this-and-that shop run by Van der Merwe’s mother, as well as a number of other enticing alternatives that are turning the traditional fishing village into a destination for food connoisseurs.

DAY 9 – THE WEST COAST
If time permits as you head back south, you could linger at a fascinating centre that showcases the cultural and culinary heritage of the San/Bushmen — Africa’s First Nation.
Otherwise be dropped off directly at Cape Town’s airport for your homeward journey, or safari extension.
