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.

What a wonderful way to experience fantastic wine farms. The staff were absolutely amazing and so full of fun through the entire day. Make sure you do your homework and decide which estates you want to visit and where you're having breakfast and lunch as this will make it feel even more effortless. - Ivana
It was a wonderful experience that we enjoyed very much. The staff were so friendly. We would have liked to have a little more choices regarding foods. Most of the wine farms had only cheese platters and not really anything else to eat. - Heleen
Great day to some fabulous vine yards. Love the wine tram and the experience this provides. - Lucy
