  • 1 15.2.2018 Barrydale, Ronnies Sex Shop, Swartberg Pass It's Time To
    15.2.2018 Barrydale, Ronnies Sex Shop, Swartberg Pass It’s time to say Good-bye, we thank Riana and Johan for their great hospitality. We continue on Route 62, this time we start at the other end and drive Eastbound. Not far from Montagu is the town of Barrydale, with some nice places to go. Johan recommended „Diesel & Cream“ and we have our second breakfast there. The decoration is unique with a collection of antique items. It seems that the Route 62 is developing as a tourist destination. The next stop is „Ronnie’s Sex Shop“. As the story goes, Ronnie had an ordinary shop on this remote part of the Route 62. One night, his friends had the glorious idea to add the word „Sex“ on the wall – as we all know „Sex sells“. One of the female guests started to leave her underwear and this is how it all began… Meanwhile a photo stop at Ronnies is a must when travelling on Route 62. There are now even branded T’Shirts and other merchandise on sale – the marketing department is up to speed and his business is booming. Ronnie has to thank his friends… At the foot of the Groot Swartberge we stop for today. Tomorrow we want to tackle the Swartberg Pass. However, it is not easy to find a campsite here. Our map shows a camp at the restaurant Kombuse Gat, but it does not really exist. Luckily, the people of the restaurant are very friendly and allow us to stay overnight and camp on the parking lot.

It is a newly designated wine district (March 2012) and an exploratory research study was undertaken to determine what the Brand ‘DNA’ of the Wellington Wine District is and then to propose appropriate marketing strategies for the developing wine tourism destination. The research process focussed on two types of wine tourism behaviour, namely festival-goers at the Wellington Wine Harvest Festival and the visitors to selected Wellington Wine Route members’ cellar doors. Surveys were executed by means of interviews and self-administration of structured questionnaires. Results were analysed in terms of two categories: first time visitors (FTV) and repeat visitors (RV).
