An absolutely perfect ending to a marvellous holiday. Restaurant Tokara @ Tokara Wine Estate (7. December 2023)
One last evening in South Africa – spent at the Tokara Wine Estate! And that’s definitely a great idea to finalise your South Africa holiday this way. Started off with a “Pink Mojito (white rum, cranberry juice, lime juice & mint)” (110 ZAR), which was truly delicious and watching the sundowner works perfectly. To finalise, […]
Slow service for lunch, but still an amazing view: Restaurant @ Clouds Estate (7. December 2023)
Given, I felt like a lazy day spent by the pool, I decided to also have lunch at the Clouds Estate restaurant, and that was okay – despite the relatively slow service.

Definitely one of my favourite wine estates during this trip: Wine Tasting @ Waterford Estate (6. December 2023)
Given the Waterford Estate is on the way from Hermanus to Stellenboesch, it is the perfect pit stop to try “The Cellar Collection” (395 ZAR) and to me, this was the best wine tasting I have had while being in South Africa – mainly, I suppose, because they focus on red wine and not on […]
