Cape Town & the Winelands

About this guide

An independent guide to Cape Town, the Cape Peninsula, Hout Bay, the Atlantic Seaboard, Franschhoek, Stellenbosch and Paarl.

How facts are checked

Every place links to its sources. Opening hours, prices and booking rules are checked against the venue’s own website where one exists; ratings and review counts come from Google.

Verification is shown for each fact, not for the whole place. Hours or a price we confirmed on the venue’s own site (or an official notice) carry a small “Source · checked” link with the date. Anything marked “Check before you go” comes from a listing only, so treat it as a hint. Open-now labels from unconfirmed hours say “Likely open · check”, never “Open now”. Where Google lists a place as closed, its page shows a warning.

“Good for” notes (toddlers, pushchairs, wheelchairs and so on) are only shown as confirmed when a source supports them; otherwise they say “Not yet checked”.

Facts last checked: 14 Nov 2026. Open-now labels are worked out on your device from the listed weekly hours, in Cape Town time.

Disclaimer

This guide is independent and is not paid by any venue. Hours, prices and access change without notice; confirm with the venue before travelling. Ratings belong to their sources and change daily.
