One of the best areas to take kids and go chill with kids. Awesome to preserve history.

What a gorgeous area. And the weather looks soooo amazing 😍<br>I’m a car guy to my core so I loved the car content. As a former fiat and Alfa Romeo owner, I was very excited

Beauty! Put the Durbanville wine area on your list too - many very old, boutique farms there too.

We are loving your videos of cape town. We are visiting in January next year and we are doing the wine tram but after watching this video we are now going to go to vergelegen which looks stunning. How often do you put new videos up. We'll be watching more. You're such a lovely couple and the chemistry between you is so endearing.

We loved Somerset West when we visited many years ago. Strange to see it so different now. So much progress.
