Trail your feet in the cool waters of the Breede River, while toasting the good life with a glass of Viljoensdrift wine on board their elegant flat-bottomed river boat named Uncle Ben 2.

The hour-long meander along the river, flanked by indigenous Breede River Yellowwood and Wild Olive trees teeming with a variety of bird species, sets the scene for a leisurely riverside experience.  Fill your picnic basket to the brim with sumptuous fare from our deli, add a bottle or two of Viljoensdrift’s fine wines and enjoy your picnic during your trip down the river. What better way to spend a laid-back afternoon with family and friends?

The river cruise comes at a mere R40 for adults, including wine tasting prior to departure, and R15 for children between 3 and 16 years.  The boat which can accommodate 40 people departs daily at 12:00 and thereafter every hour on the hour (depending on bookings).  Advance bookings and arrival 30 minutes prior to departure are essential.
