Father's Day at the Franschhoek Motor Museum

Why not take dad on a special drive to Franschhoek this Father’s Day?


The Franschhoek Motor Museum, on the magnificent L’Ormarins estate near Franschhoek, will be opening its doors at half price to everyone on Sunday 15 June.

In addition to this the museum will be offering an under the hood special where selected old timer and classic cars will have their bonnets up. Visitors will be able to experience Ferrari, Porsché and other start ups.

Franschhoek’s Motor museum’s collection exceeds an extraordinary total of 220 classic vehicles – ranging from an 1898 Beeston motor tricycle to a 2003 Ferrari Enzo Supercar – and more than 80 exhibits will be on view at any one time, displayed in four de-humidified halls with a total floor area of 2 700 square metres, and presented in chronological order.
