Itinerary

There’s no better way to experience Franschhoek than on an e-bike; it’s now even more enjoyable and accessible and fun for everyone. Explore the Franschhoek Valley and soak up the scenery at your own pace, while the pedal assist makes the ride effortless and fun.

Pick up your rented bicycle at Franschhoek Rent A Bicycle/Louer un Vèlo, where your guide will set you up with your e-bike, adjust your seat post, hand out helmets, and give you a quick orientation so you feel comfortable before setting off.

From there, your adventure begins as you follow the app on a well planned route. Along the way, you’ll stop at carefully selected wine estates where you can enjoy tastings, coffee, or even sushi:

  • Glenwood – tucked away off the beaten track, Glenwood also has a sushi bar if you’d like a snack.
  • Grande Provence – choose between a wine tasting or a coffee break.

You’ll have time to take photos as we admire Franschhoek and the surrounding mountains from different angles. The route also winds through vineyards and farms, with your guide sharing insights about the valley’s rich culture and winemaking history.

This tour is the perfect mix of adventure, culture, and indulgence – a truly memorable way to explore Franschhoek.
