Famous for its wine regions, Cape Town has some fantastic wine fairs to visit during your stay. If you yearn to relax in the tranquil countryside and sip some fine wines while socializing, head to the Voor-Paardeberg Annual Wine Fair. You'll not only get to enjoy the countryside as it blooms, you'll get to taste 8 different winemakers' bottles. You'll love the opportunity to relax in the scenery and sip on the best wines of the region in one place.

Now in its third year, the Voor-Paardeberg Annual Wine Fair has become a key player in the local wine farm business, and the winemakers love to visit the fair and talk with people who love wine. Try wines from Ayama, Bernheim Wines, David Frost Estate, Horse Mountain Wines, Oude Denneboom, Scali, and Vondeling Wineries.

If you have children, they'll love the wine fair because of the myriad of available children's activities such as pony rides, a bouncy castle, and multiple water activities in a safe, kid-friendly environment. And, even better, South Africa's summer starts in November, so it is the perfect time for kids to play in the water!

There is an entry fee, but it covers a gorgeous, crystal glass and free tastings. If you have the endurance, you'll be able to sample at least 40 fine wines from this region. Feel free to mingle and sip at your own pace. There are also one-of-a-kind booths featuring crafts and organic, country food such as cheeses, nuts, fruits, raw honey, olives, and biltong, a South African dried meat.

With all the adventures in store, head to Paarl for this grand wine fair! Get ready for relaxation and
