Ride an electric bike through Franschhoek, stopping at two or three wine estates along the way.
Bicycles have always had a special place in the hearts of the French, so where better to pedal than through the Cape’s “French corner”? Founded by French Huguenots in 1688, the vineyard-scattered Franschhoek valley is flanked by majestic mountains, making it the ideal location to explore on an ebike.
The three-and-a-half-hour tours start at the Huguenot Museum – where you’ll be able to enjoy a cup of coffee and something to eat (for your own account) – as your guide shows you how to use your bike. Then you’ll head off into the Winelands, avoiding main roads and stopping at two or three wine estates of your choice along the way.
Included in the package:
- ebike
- guide
- protective gear
For a taste of the French-country lifestyle, bikes and all, head to Franschhoek.
