Riebeek Kasteel is one of the small villages within the Riebeek Valley. Nestling on the slopes of its own mountain, the dramatic Kasteelberg, the surrounds are wheatlands, vineyards and olive groves, creating a distinctive touch of the Mediterranean in Africa. Only an hour from Cape Town, you will love the rural atmoshere of these quaint villages with a wide range of choice in accommodation, places to eat and drink, opportunities to do a bit of retail therapy or taste the delicious local wine, olives and other products. Make this your base and explore beautiful beaches, majestic mountains, world renowned wine routes, the Karoo and the Mother City, all within an hour or two's drive from the valley.
