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.

Booking was very easy, and the instructions on how to use and navigate the timetable were very clear to allow us to plan in advance. On the day the organisation was excellent, and all the staff at the terminal and on the trams were very helpful and friendly. - Brooke
We had a fantastic time! Everyone who worked on the tram was so kind and helpful and made sure we had the perfect day :) - Staci
My mom and I had the pleasure of experiencing the wine tram- blue line. It also helped that the weather was perfect. The service from our fellow South Africans and the whole experience exceeded our expectations. The staff communicated everything well and we felt like tourists in our own country. I would definitely go back to experience a different color line. - Nandiwe
We had a great time in Franschoek. Everything went smoothly from the pick-up till the return. The place is wonderful, the scenery mesmerising, the personnel ready to help. We could taste and buy some good wine, savour a braai. We will come back for sure - ingrid
Funny day at the wine tram. Possibility to see different wine estates, try their wine and see Franschhoek from another side. - Renate
