We call this tour the Winelands Freedom Route.

We start by taking the long road to freedom to the Mandela House at Victor Verster Prison. This is the house that Nelson Mandela occupied at the prison.

 Here you will be fascinated by anecdotes such as important meetings and decisions taken in the house and also tales of espionage and deceit. Here we listen to first hand accounts of the life of Nelson Mandela from wardens who looked after him during his stay. This represents political freedom.

We visit the fascinating winelands area including wine tastings along the way. We will visit various monuments such as the Huegonot Monument which is symbolic of religious freedom. The Taal Monument represents language freedom. Then we visit the Pniel area. This is the area that slaves were banished to from Cape Town in the 1800’s.This is a symbol of freedom of slavery.

Then we visit Nelson’s Creek, a wine farm of which a portion was handed over to the labourers. We enjoy a glass of wine and listen to the new owners explain how they became able to develop and sell one of the best wines on the market under their own label. This represents economic freedom. On the farm you will have the opportunity to taste and purchase some wines.

A picnic lunch will be served in this scenic paradise. Then join us for a optional drumming session. This interactive group drumming is the most fundamental way to reduce stress and to learn to work together, celebrate success, build community , build team spirit, relax, and break down racial, political, cultural, gender, and age barriers. With this wonderful experience behind you, you will have plenty to ponder while we set out for our return to Cape Town
