Darling and surrounds has a great deal to offer from mouthwatering local produce, award-winning wine cellars, craft beer, country restaurants, wildflower reserves to enjoy at your own leisure, and of course the famous Evita se Perron. To make sure you don't miss anything Darling Tourism will be running a Shuttle bus service around the village during the festival weekend.

Booking your accommodation in advance is advised. Visit the Darling Tourism website at www.hellodarling.org.za, call the office at 022 492 3361, or send an email to darling@swartlandtourism.co.za for more information on what to do in Darling.

All the wildflower reserves are worth a visit during the Festival and most of them are suitable for mobile seniors on short, relatively flat comfortable walks. Please note that the reserves are not accessible to buses but there is parking immediately outside the entrances on the road. There are no entrance fees at the reserves! The best time for viewing is from 11h00 to 15h00 when there is enough light and warmth – the flowers start to close later in the day. Try and choose a sunny day. Don't forget comfortable shoes, a hat and insect repellent.
