When To Travel

The Best Time to Visit Stellenbosch is during the spring (September to November) and autumn (March to May) months. These seasons offer mild temperatures, ranging from 15°C to 25°C, and fewer crowds. Spring brings blooming flowers and lush vineyards, while autumn offers beautiful foliage and ideal conditions for wine tasting. Summer (December to February) is also a popular time, with warmer temperatures and vibrant festivals, although it can be quite busy.
