Virtual Africa has created a Google Earth file on behalf of Afrikaans newspaper Die Burger to compliment their article on the Hermanus Wine and Food Fair.

(Kliek hier vir die Afrikaanse weergawe.)

We’ve created 45 interactive panoramic images of the following wine farms and cellars in the Hemel-en-Aarde Valley : Sumaridge, Newton Johnson, La Vierge, Hamilton Russell, Creation, Ataraxia, Hermanuspietersfontein, Whalehaven and Spookfontein.

By plotting these panoramic images onto Google Earth, we created an opportunity for you to explore the region like never before – which is what we specialize in here at Virtual Africa.

You can download the Google Earth file by clicking here.

(If you don’t have Google Earth installed on you computer, well, maybe it’s time to see why 300 million people do and download it from here. After downloading and installing Google Earth, simply open the Hemel-en-Aarde file we created for your enjoyment.)
If you don’t have time to do it now – have a look at our 2-d version (Google Maps) by on clicking here.

You’ll be able to virtually step inside the cellars and enjoy the view over the vineyards.

All that is left, is to visit the Food and Wine Fair and enjoy the produce from this beautiful part of our country.
