Robertson Trips & Tours

A charming wine-making town where down-to-earth living is the name of the game

Lying in the shadow of the stately Langeberg Mountains and with a varied, 150-year history of agriculture, wagon-making and ostrich-farming, Robertson is a quaint, quirky and oh-so unpretentious Winelands town. The jacaranda-filled streets are lined with Victorian architecture and a small selection of tearooms and restaurants that will make you wonder which decade you stepped into… Today, the town is still a farming community but with an emphasis on wine and fruit and, with wall-to-wall sunshine (almost) 365-days of the year and scorching summer temperatures, the wines are rich, intense and produced in large quantities. It’s also the unofficial start of the Route 62, the longest wine route in the world, and the numerous wineries offer down-to-earth settings in which to taste different grapes – or a spot to relax under the trees for a languid afternoon of sipping followed by a genteel cruise up and down the Breede River, glass in hand.
