Bushveld & Vine -Cape Wineries & South African Cuisine

A journey of taste and terroir. Bushveld & Vine begins in the heart of safari country and unfolds into the rolling vineyards of the Cape. A sensorial adventure through South Africa’s most celebrated flavors. You’ll sip world-class wines at family-owned estates, dine on farm-to-table feasts, and explore the cultural artistry behind every dish. From bush dinners under starlit skies to cellar tastings with a winemaker’s story, this is where nature, nourishment, and connection blend beautifully.

From the Wild to the Winelands

Some journeys are best savored slowly. Bushveld & Vine begins in the untamed beauty of Southern Africa’s wilderness. On safari tracking elephant and lion across golden plains, to the next escape of evenings beside the fire with a glass of crisp Chenin Blanc as the Africa comes alive under starlight.

After days spent immersed in nature, the adventure shifts, a short flight south takes you to the rolling vineyards of the Cape, where refinement meets rhythm. Here, the raw stillness of the bush gives way to cultivated landscapes, boutique estates, and the scent of oak barrels and sea air.

The Experience

Each journey is curated to balance wild adventure with refined indulgence. Your days in the bush are spent in open vehicles guided by expert rangers, followed by nights in eco-luxury lodges that blend natural textures with contemporary comfort.

From there, you’ll swap safari boots for vineyard strolls exploring the famed valleys of Franschhoek, Stellenbosch, and Constantia. Private tastings introduce you to South Africa’s most celebrated vintages, paired with chef-led dining that celebrates the country’s diverse flavors of Cape Malay spice, coastal seafood, and bold, sun-warmed produce.

Between vineyards, you’ll wander through historic towns, visit local markets, or simply relax on a terrace overlooking the vines with a glass of Pinotage in hand. Every transition feels intentional with wild mornings, cultured afternoons, and evenings steeped in story.

Why It’s Different

This is more than a food and wine journey. It’s the perfect continuation of a safari. A chance to reflect, unwind, and savor the richness of South Africa’s landscapes in all their forms.

From the roar of the lion to the quiet pour of a vintage red, Vine & Veld embodies the true rhythm of Africa. Wild at heart, sophisticated in spirit, and deeply connected to the land that makes it all possible.
