Self-driving is a wonderful way to explore Route 62 - known to be one of the longest wine routes. The drive itself takes you to quaint towns and quirky stops en route. Allow at least 5 hours to enjoy the route as you head to the historical town of Oudtshoorn where one can visit the Cango Caves or enjoy a tour of an ostrich farm.
