Step-by-step itinerary

Luxury EBike tour of Stellenbosch estates

  • Visit Skilpadvlei farm
  • Explore Neethlingshof Estate
  • Tour small family vineyard
  • Experience De Waal Wines tasting

The experience

The EBike does the work on the climbs, so you cover more ground than you would on foot or a regular bike. Skilpadvlei, a 78-hectare farm run by the fourth-generation Joubert family since 1917, sits alongside Neethlingshof Estate, where a stone-pine avenue leads to restored Cape Dutch buildings dating back over 300 years. Between these anchors, you'll stop at a small family-owned vineyard with views across the winelands and De Waal Wines on Uiterwyk Estate in the Stellenbosch Kloof Valley, a nine-generation family operation focused on Old World finesse and New World fruit.

At each estate, you taste premium wines paired with the landscape and the winemaker's story. A cellar tour at one stop shows you how the wines are made. Midway through the ride, a cheese and charcuterie platter arrives with wine pairings. The snack pack (bottled water, chocolate, peanuts or raisins) keeps you fueled between tastings. Your guide handles the route and the timing, leaving you to focus on the wine and the views.

The tour runs six hours and suits all fitness levels because the electric assist handles the steep sections. You'll need to be at least 16 years old and comfortable on a bike. The ride is subject to favorable weather. Book for a minimum of two people. If you have specific dietary needs, mention them when you reserve.

What are the four wine estates I'll visit on this EBike tour?

Skilpadvlei, a 78-hectare family farm run by the Jouberts since 1917; Neethlingshof Estate, known for its restored Cape Dutch buildings and three-century history; a small family-owned vineyard with winelands views; and De Waal Wines on Uiterwyk Estate, a nine-generation winemaking family in the Stellenbosch Kloof Valley.

How does the electric bike make this different from a regular cycling tour?

The electric motor assists on climbs, so you cover more distance and visit more estates without arriving exhausted. You can enjoy the tastings and the scenery instead of recovering from the ride.

What's included in the wine tastings and food?

Premium wine tastings and pairings at all four estates; a cellar tour at one stop; a cheese and charcuterie platter with wine; and a snack pack with bottled water, chocolate, and peanuts or raisins.

Is this tour suitable if I'm not an experienced cyclist?

Yes. The electric assist means all fitness levels can manage the route, and the minimum age is 16. You do need to be comfortable riding a bike on country roads, and the tour is subject to favorable weather.

How long does the tour take and what time does it start?

The tour runs six hours. Specific start times are not listed. Contact the operator to confirm the departure time that suits your schedule.
