South Africa’s Babylonstoren has launched a new package

South Africa's Babylonstoren, in the heart of the Cape Winelands, is one of a few farms in South Africa that keeps, breeds, and milks water buffalo. The latest experience at this restored Cape Dutch farm will see guests have the opportunity to get up close and personal with the 200-strong herd of Mediterranean Water Buffalo, each with their own name and personality.

After the tour, for a truly immersive farm-to-fork experience, guests can sample mozzarella, yoghurt and butter made from buffalo milk at the estate's resident hyper-seasonal restaurant. Guests can also join the 'Water Buffalo Whisperer', Leonie Botha, for a feeding session with the water buffalo babies, a delight for all the family.
