South Africa

South Africa is a fabulous foodie destination. Join a trail through historic wine country, visit farmer’s markets and food producers, take a cooking class, taste local dishes and dine in the country’s finest restaurants.

Hit the streets of Cape Town with a private guide and enjoy a city food tour. Visit artisanal coffee and chocolate producers, try biltong and droewers (traditional cured meats) and indulge in spiced Cape Malay style curries.

An hour’s drive from Cape Town lies the countryside of the Cape Winelands, which includes grape-growing regions Franschhoek, Stellenbosch and Paarl. Franschhoek is considered South Africa’s culinary capital, with excellent wine estates, top restaurants and many food and wine tours and festivals. Enjoy a picnic involving the local charcuterie, cheeses, olives and breads, paired with an award-winning drop.

Many of South Africa’s luxury safari lodges use fresh produce to creative innovative daily menus, with impressive wine lists to match.
