The heart of Stellenbosch has lost one of its brightest colours. 💙🎨

We bid farewell to Portchie, a true icon whose art, passion and larger-than-life personality touched countless lives.

At Bites & Sites, we had the privilege of sharing a small part of his world with guests from around the globe. Just last week, visitors from Miami were captivated by his work, taking a piece of Stellenbosch home with them through his art.

Portchie’s vibrant spirit helped shape the character and creativity that make Stellenbosch so special. His legacy will continue to live on through every colourful canvas, every story shared, and every person inspired by his work.

Our heartfelt condolences go out to his family, friends and all who knew and loved him.

Rest peacefully, Portchie. Your colours will continue to brighten Stellenbosch for generations to come. ❤️🕊️

A few snapshots from this week’s experiences.

We’ve welcomed some wonderful guests over the past few days, sharing stories, exploring Stellenbosch, and creating memories along the way.

The misty weather added a little extra charm, wrapping the town in a soft glow and giving our afternoon experience a picture-perfect backdrop.

No two experiences are ever the same, and that’s what makes them so special. Thank you to everyone who joined us this week and became part of the Bites & Sites story.

Why is Stellenbosch called the City of Oaks?

Take a walk through Stellenbosch and you'll quickly notice the beautiful oak trees lining the streets. These trees have been part of the town's story for centuries, earning Stellenbosch the nickname "Eikestad" or "City of Oaks". Today, they remain one of the town's most recognisable features, adding to the charm and character that make Stellenbosch so special. It's details like these that help tell the story of Stellenbosch beyond the food, wine and beautiful scenery.

South African words and what they really mean. 🇿🇦

One of the best parts of travelling is learning the words locals use every day and on tour, our guests quickly learn that “lekker” can describe almost anything.

From food to culture to everyday conversations, these are some of the local words you’ll hear while exploring Stellenbosch with us.
