You step into an air‑conditioned minibus in Cape Town as the city slides behind you and the mountains tighten around a green ribbon of vineyards. The drive along the N2 and over the Helshoogte/Franschhoek passes opens into the valley — rows of vines run toward jagged ridgelines, and the Franschhoek Wine Tram waits like a vintage promise beside the town's whitewashed facades.
