Viljoensdrift River Cruise

The Uncle Ben 2 is a flat-bottomed river boat that departs hourly from the Viljoensdrift wine estate for a gentle round trip down the Breede River.

During the hour-long meander, passengers may spot indigenous Breede River yellowwood and wild olive trees, as well as a variety of bird species.

Prior to departure, visitors can create their own picnic baskets at the deli to enjoy either on the banks of the river or during the cruise. The deli offers a selection of cheeses, cold meats, and freshly baked breads, as well as a large variety of Viljoensdrift’s award-winning wines. There is also a short menu of cooked dishes, and a fridgeful of refreshing cool drinks.

Check-in is 60 minutes prior to departure. All food and drinks must be purchased from the restaurant or deli. Guests are not allowed to bring their own refreshments.
