The walking tour starts with a visit to our balsamic vinegar cellar, where guests will gain insight into the traditional methods and production processes used to create our DOP-style vinegar, and taste both our three-year-old and twelve-year-old balsamic vinegars.

This is followed by a behind-the-scenes look at how Babylonstoren’s table olives are made in our olive production plant and sample the varieties on offer. After the tasting, the process of transforming olives into golden olive oil in our cold press process is explained in the olive press. Finally, it’s time to taste our olive oils. Guests can create their own 100ml blend of the different oils to take home as a small keepsake.

Payment required to secure booking.

A tale as old as time, told in vivid sensory detail in our wine museum, The Story of Wine. The space is a celebration of man's ingenuity and the earth's generosity, and the cultural events that have shaped our collective winemaking and wine drinking heritage.

It details the origins, cultivation and culture behind mankind's love affair with wine, while encouraging a contemporary narrative of its age-old traditions and social gravitas.

Visit the museum at the entrance to our Tasting Room, to your right. The self-guided tour is free to experience and open daily.

Our Daily Garden Tour starts at 10h00 in front of  the Farm Shop. One of our experienced gardeners will be your guide on this tour, during which we encourage guests to pick, taste, smell and touch while walking through our garden.

Special Collections Tour:

Come on the daily guided walk from Monday to Friday at 11h30, to discover our collections and meet our expert gardeners. On Mondays & Fridays guests will be taken to see the succulent collection and the cycads next to the stream.  On Tuesdays we go for a walk through the Healing Garden.  Wednesdays we share our vegetable gardens and Thursdays are all about bees at Babylonstoren.

For groups of 11 to 25 guests, a set menu is available. In line with our farm philosophy, our menu is always seasonal and guided by what's currently available from the garden. Expect creatively styled platters served family-style, so everyone can help themselves. Our group menu always boasts freshly baked bread from our traditional wood-fired oven, showstopping salads and hearty mains served with all the trimmings. A delightful dessert of farm-made favourites seals the deal.

A 50% deposit secures your reservation. Should you wish to bring an even larger group, we have private function venues available.

Come and enjoy our Sunday lunch buffet every Sunday!

We can’t wait to see you!

We hold regular workshops at Babylonstoren as we see it as an ideal opportunity to share what we’ve learned and to also learn from our community. Experts in their fields host these workshops in collaboration with our team. They’re quite hands-on so you will get to try out the skills, technique or discipline that we’re learning about. Starting with a walk through the garden, it is usually a full-day affair.
