10 Superb things to do in Stellenbosch

You may or may not know that Stellenbosch is the second old­est town in South Africa and is fondly referred to as ‘Eikestad’ or city of oaks. While vis­it­ing this town your eyes will be drawn to the gor­geous examples of Victorian, Cape Dutch and Georgian archi­tec­ture that line the streets. Take you time and walk down Dorp Street which is a national monu­ment and a real treasure.

Stellenbosch isn’t only a wine region it is also home to the University of Stellenbosch and so on any given day you’ll find plenty of stu­dents mak­ing their way to and from cam­pus, which also means that the town has an act­ive night­life — so be sure you’re ready for a jol! Because it is only an hour away from Cape Town this means you can eas­ily pop into an event, per­haps one of the Oude Libertas Summer Season Concerts or take in a film or two at the Cape Winelands Film Festival. If you’re stay­ing for more than a day we’ve come up with 10 won­der­ful sug­ges­tions of things you can busy your­self with in this his­tor­ical town …
