The winner is adventure-obsessed Dutchman Tim Loonen of Tripbod - a global travel network that connects travellers with "local ambassadors", aka knowledge sources, from popular city destinations as well as far-flung destinations across the world for authentic holiday experiences.
Entrants were invited to select their "ultimate bucket list" from an itinerary of experiences in and around Stellenbosch, ranging from harvesting with a winemaker, spa pampering amidst the vineyards, exploring the local markets, and dining with a local celebrity chef, to game viewing in the Winelands and learning how to drive a tractor. Tim has never set foot on the African continent before and is thrilled to be experiencing a myriad of tastes, sights and delights from the country's wine and gourmet capital during this five-day adventure.
His sensory engagements will include those with key Stellenbosch Experience partners, such as the Adventure Shop, Cellar Door Collection Passport, Dornier, Delheim Estate, Evergreen Manor, Fleur du Cap, The House of JC Le Roux, Kleine Zalze, Majeka House, Middelvlei Estate, Oldenburg Vineyards, Spier, Stellenbosch Vineyards, Tokara Restaurant, Van Ryn's Distillery & Brandy Cellar and Warwick Estate.
