Judy Brower - wine.co.za

Trying to find a restaurant (that’s child-friendly) in the winelands? Or looking to take granny (in her wheelchair) for breakfast in the Helderberg?

All you have to do is use the new Tourism Search pages on wine.co.za - EAT, SLEEP, DO & TASTE and you can easily do the following:

Find a place to eat which is open on a Sunday,
Find self-catering accommodation in Franschhoek,
Find things to do in Stellenbosch,
Find a wedding venue in Paarl,
Find out tasting room opening times ... and... and...

wine.co.za has been publishing wine information for 18 years and with Wine Tourism playing such an important role in providing visitors with experiences which they then cherish, it makes so much sense to make it easier for travellers for find what they want. Time is so precious and I have often heard from people who have driven all the way out to a winery only to find that their restaurant is closed that day! Being forewarned makes all the difference.

wine.co.za's client base of Global Partners and Partner listings now have an added extra feature in their listings - which allows them to showcase their restaurants, guest houses, cottages, tasting rooms and activities like mountain biking, hiking, trails, art galleries and more. The more detail we get about these places, the easier it will be for the wine tourist to find your establishment. Opening Hours, categories of activities - all these help to make the search simpler.
