Family-owned and managed boutique winery, Mitre’s Edge, is nestled at the foothills of the Simonsberg Mountain, between Paarl and Stellenbosch. It is in this beautiful setting that winemaker Lola Nicholls, assisted by husband Bernard, focuses on producing relatively smaller quantities of high-quality, award-winning wines. Wine tastings are offered by appointment.
Not well sign posted and the road id dodgy, but the wine and cheese pairing is one of the best. To make it better still, the pairing is delivered by the wine maker herself. Find this gem!

Anura Vineyards is a family owned and run wine estate situated in the foothills of the Simonsberg Mountain in the Western Cape. The Anura Vineyards tasting room enjoys panoramic views overlooking vineyards, ponds and fynbos. This beautiful setting, along with fine wines and handcrafted cheeses, provides a memorable tasting experience that will stay with you long after your last sip.
Despite being the last tram stop, Anura is well worth it. Accomodating staff, great beer tasting with good snacks and wonderful cheese and wine pairing

The Animal Sanctuary at Butterfly World hosts exotic, free flying butterflies. We are a forever home for over 750 exotic animals, such as antelope, iguanas, monkeys, snakes, spiders and much more. Many of our animals roam freely in the gardens. We also offer a skeleton park, restaurant and edu-centre.
You may consider this a mini-zoo - however, it is exactly what it's called: a sanctuary. All animals on display have been donated/surrendered by outside parties and are being taken care of by the team that is trying to instill a sense of responsibility into humans, educating the public on dangers of "domesticating" wild animals (dangers to the animals as well as the people). Every step of the way they remind you not to take wild animals home, not to play with them or try to domesticate them - invariably, that story ends either with such animals being discarded by the owners into surroundings the animal is no longer adjusted for, be it wild nature or the streets. Most of animals hosted by the Sanctuary are birds, but you also see lemurs, monkeys, meerkats and other mammals plus reptiles and amphibians. Because they are accustomed to people, all animals are very inquisitive and definitely not shy! This makes for a great entertainment, especially if you are coming with kids. The animals that are not dangerous are presented in open enclosures. Some of them are actively seeking attention. It's quite clear that animals are being tended and cared for. Lots of positive emotions! Come and experience for yourself.
