When it comes to exploring Stellenbosch as groups , the more the merrier – and the more memorable! Are you in search of worthwhile experiences and adventures that your entire group of between 10 and 20 people can enjoy together? Here are our five recommendations from travellers who have been there and done that.
Segway Tours
Groups of up to 10 people should consider hopping on board their own two-wheel, self-balancing Segway and gliding around the Spier wine estate at their leisure. Choose from a one-hour onsite excursion or a two-hour adventure that will take you further afield into the surrounding vineyards. There’s no better way to top off the experience than decadent wine tasting and a hearty meal.

It’s a social occasion that promises a tasty finish – so, really, everyone wins.

Wine Blending and a Boerebraai
There are few things more authentically South African than a Boerebraai, and what better way in which to savour it than with a stomach full of some delicious wine that you concocted yourself? Make the most of both a wonderful wine blending experience and a classic Boerebraai at Middelvlei wine estate. Think crispy chops, juicy boerewors, and succulent chicken sosaties, as well as a personalised bottle of your very own vineyard creation to take home.
