With La Rochelle
Tours, taking a wine tour from either
Franschhoek or Stellenbosch can not be any
easier. The Stellenbosch wine route and the
beautiful gourmet valley of Franschhoek are
“must visit” destinations on any wine tour or
visit to Cape Town and the Cape Winelands.
La Rochelle Tours has more than 10 years
experience within the South African travel
industry. We operate our own fleet of vehicles
and our experienced guides are all fully
trained and registered. Our specialised
wine tour guides have all been educated by the
Cape Wine Academy. All the guided wine tours of
Franschhoek and Stellenbosch are done in a
professional way and we exceed expectations on a
daily basis.
At La Rochelle Tours we know about all the
little hidden gems and we are not shy to share
them with our guests. We try to avoid the
larger, commercial wine estates within the
Stellenbosch and Franschhoek wine areas in order
to give you the best wine tour experience ever.
All enquiries at La Rochelle Tours are
designated to a consultant who will be your
personal contact during the whole planning and
implementing process of your winelands
experience.
Below you will find a list and short description
of most of the tours that we offer. We hope that
you will soon also be able to have a La Rochelle
Tours experience.
1 Full Day Wine Tour – Allow us to take
you on a breathtaking journey through some of
the most beautiful wine routes in the world. We
guarantee food for the soul (amazing views),
food for the mind (history) and food for the
body (world class cuisine and wine).The best way
to have an unforgettable experience is to join
one of our custom made daily wine tours of
Franschhoek and Stellenbosch (with no pre set
itinerary). Our Cape Wine Academy educated wine
tour guides will provide a professional service
to you and your family.
Half Day Wine Tour – If you are short on
time, then this half day winelands tour is just
for you. You can expect to visit between 2-3
wine estates on a half day wine tour and taste
between 5-8 wines per estate. We would prefer
that you experience a half day tour with us in
the morning as all your senses are at their most
“alert” early in the day. Half Day tours will
mostly be spent exploring the Franschhoek wine
route. La Rochelle Tours will show you the
hidden gems that the Franschhoek wine valley has
to offer.
Full Day Chocolate, Cheese, Olive Oil and
Wine Tour – Oh Boy! We have a winner here!!!
This full day wine tasting combination tour of
Franschhoek wines and Stellenbosch wines are one
of our most popular wine tours. Our Cape Wine
Academy trained wine tour guides from La
Rochelle Tours will leave you in no doubt that
you need to renew that long forgotten gym
membership after doing this tour. If this full
day winelands tour does not get your heart
racing then perhaps you should try bungy
jumping. We look forward to taking you on a
journey of discovery.
Full Day Cape Winelands Gourmet Delights Tour –
The Full Day Cape Winelands Gourmet Delights
Tour can only be done on a private tour basis.
All the combination wine tastings as well as
lunch will be included in this La Rochelle Tours
experience. Our first stop of the day will be at
the Grande Provence Heritage Wine Estate where
you will enjoy a wine and food pairing in their
modern wine tasting centre. Grande Provence also
offers luxury accommodation, a restaurant and a
art gallery. This historic, yet modern estate
with its beautiful garden and buildings is
chosen by many as the ideal wedding venue in
Franschhoek. Our next stop will be at the
beautiful Moreson Wine Estate. Moreson’s
Chacuterie and wine tasting is their own twist
on novel wine tasting. After a spot of lunch we
end the day with a cheese and wine tasting.
There are a number of options open to us
depending on your palate (for the wine), the
season and even the weather on the day of the
wine tour.
Private Wine Tours – For guests that prefer to
explore any tour within our portfolio on a
private tour basis, we offer full and half day
private wine tours. With private wine tours our
guests are a bit more flexible as to the time
and itinerary on any given day.
La Rochelle Tours can also tailor make golf
tours, gourmet tours, safari packages and many
more.
