A gem of an estate sitting on the eastern slops of the Boatmansekop mountain and facing the rugged Drakensberg mountains. Unlike the nostalgic Lanzerac wine estate of the 1690s,Delaire graff combines modern buildings and stunning contemporary art pieces hanging on the walls. A jewelry shop within the the estate rubs shoulders with world class Delaire graff restaurant and the Asian cuisine Indoschine restaurant.

Franschhoek

After lunch, the journey will take us via the historic town of Pniel to the one street town of Franschhoek. A great many farmers hailing from France in the 1680s were granted land here to grow vineyards and thus the town became known as Franschhoek and meaning the French's corner. Surrounded by mountains and manicured vineyards on all sides, Franschhoek gives one a beautiful co-relation of nature and man's work. The beautifully done Leeu estate consisting of art galleries, hotel and restaurants leaves one with a silent cry of wanting to stay here for much longer. Should guest be willing to jump off the vehicle and explore the shops, this town would not disappoint. Same as in Stellenbosch, here one may find art stores, jewelry stores, fine leather stores, clothing stores or even fine chocolate factories!
