Spice Route
Spice Route has been created to offer visitors the opportunity to enjoy a carefully holistic collection of authentic agricultural and artisanal products and experiences in a single location. Situated on a historic wine farm, in the heart of the Cape Winelands, the beautiful rural setting with its magnificent vistas of the surrounding mountains and valleys, and with fabled Table Mountain looming in the distance, is an integral part of the overall experience. With so many different activities and experiences, the artisans are all leaders in their respective fields and have been hand-selected to showcase their products and talents at Spice Route Destination.
