Unearth the unique flora and fauna of Cape Town

What you'll do

Start your day with a culture fix in Cape Town’s Company’s Gardens. A leafy oasis in the heart of the city, the garden was established in the 1600s and is awash with history as well as striking foliage. In the famous Kirstenbosch National Botanical Gardens, you’ll wander through some of the most beautiful, indigenous flora and fauna in the country before driving out to the Cape Winelands for a spot of wine-tasting at Vergelegen and a stroll through the bountiful gardens of Babylonstoren and their variety of edible delights.
