Cape Town – The Cellars Hohenort boutique hotel – Your accommodation

You will be received at the airport and transferred to the hotel. Depending on your arrival time, you can plunge into the pool, have a sundowner while the sun sets or have supper. The next day the participants of the photography course will leave for their first day of shooting on location. Transport to and from the location is included. Meals, models, equipment on location as well. The second day of shooting is in and around the amazingly beautiful historic hotel and garden. Again, all the models and equipment are provided. There will be a scrumptious lunch to enjoy as well. The final morning will be spent editing the photos and we will finish the course with a delicious three course lunch outside on the terrace.

The evenings are spent at leisure. Constantia, the wine region of Cape Town, is also the oldest wine region in the Western Cape. Some of South Africa’s best wines are grown in this valley, and many of these wine estates have phenomenally good restaurants. Four Cape restaurants are even in the Top 100 of the world’s best restaurants!
