A few words about Paarl
About an hour drive from Cape Town, the third oldest town in South Africa, Paarl, offers a large array of possibilities for wine lovers, from the large international wine estates to smaller 'garagiste' ones.
Many of the Paarl estates also offer attractions such as lunch under old oak trees, cheeses and olives tastings, historical tours and of course, the possibility to sit back and let the natural beauty of the surroundings wash you over.
