Extensive roadworks in Franschhoek, Drakenstein, Simondium, and Klapmuts may cause delays. Please factor this into your travel plans to the Franschhoek Wine Tram. Service may be affected on your booking day.
With the Exceptional Wine & Cuisine Experience, guests are treated to a day of exceptional luxury, travelling via tram and tram-bus to 3 different pairing experiences.
Guests depart from the Franschhoek Terminal at 10:15 am and enjoy a complimentary coffee and Beignet while awaiting their departure. Guests travel via tram and tram bus to three pre-selected wine estates.
Throughout the course of the day, guests are treated to a number of pairing experiences, including a breakfast pairing, a MCC & truffle pairing, an indulgent food & wine pairing lunch, and a dessert & wine pairing. After a full day of food, wine and festivities, guests return to the Franschhoek Terminal at approximately 5 pm.
The tour is strictly a wine-tasting experience and does not host celebration events such as birthdays or bachelor/bachelorette parties as the estates visited are primarily wine-tasting venues and not party venues. In order to properly exercise their duties, the Franschhoek Wine Tram staff members place a legitimate expectation on all guests not to behave in an unacceptably loud, disruptive, offensive, or intoxicated manner. Should any such behaviour be exhibited the Franschhoek Wine Tram reserves its right to suspend or withdraw its services. All vehicles are fitted with CCTV and monitored throughout the service.

We had an amazing time on the wine and cuisine experience. This is definitely the way to experience the Franschhoek wineries as the experienced team pick the vineyards for you to visit and organise the food for you too! You even get a knowledgeable guide. It is very well organised and you get a more exclusive and personal tour than you would doing it on your own. Everything was just perfect - Richard
The Wine Tram exceeded my expectations. Our host was fantastic! She was knowledgeable, entertaining and beyond pleasant and professional. The three wineries we visited were perfect for our group. The winery properties were beautiful, the food was delicious and complimented the wine very nicely and staff were very pleasant. The serving of champagne and chocolate while on the wine train was a very nice surprise. We enjoyed the white glove treatment provided by our host. - Valerie
Dear Sir/Madam, my wife and I immensely enjoyed the exceptional wine & cuisine experience. The individual experiences as well as the tour guide met or exceed our expectations and we will recommend it to our friends planning to visit the area. - Carlos
We enjoyed this outstanding experience very much. Did not expect being pampered perfectly during that day ! Courtney was the perfect host. We learned a lot about Franschhoek wines and culinary specialities. Two more trips withe the wine tram completed our experience. - We shall return! - Klaus
We had a beautiful day doing this experience for the first time. The host Courtney was super knowledgeable and she made it so fun for all of us. I can't give her enough credit! All stops were fantastic for food & wine. It would be great to see additional venues added to the routes for repeat visits, as we know we will be back! - Savanna
