This is a highly recommended event which must be visited by everyone who visits Cape Town... a hidden Gem. Would also recommend that if you visist you must stay for the Braai Dinner/lunch
Die Damen und Herren, die getanzt und getrommelt haben, waren super, in jeder Hinsicht. Die Weinverkostung war eher durchschnittlich, der Rosé ganz gut. Wir waren hauptsächlich wg. der Trommler dort - insgesamt ein stimmiges Erlebnis. Anschliessendes Braai war gut - nachdem die Grillage nicht im Paket dabei ist, sollte man sich vorher (telefonisch) anmelden.
Fantastic, highly recommended
Von Anfang bis Ende eine super schöne und authentische Veranstaltung
