What a great tour! We just loved the vinaries and will definitely recommend this tour to anyone visiting South Africa. Special thanks to the first lady on the bus ( sorry I forgot her name). Because of her we went to Ekihof and at the end was or favorite vinary. - Raluca
We had a fantastic day exploring the Franschhoek Wine Tram's Red Line and would highly recommend it to anyone visiting the area. The tram was a brilliant way to discover the wine region, taking us between some lovely wine estates where we could enjoy the beautiful surroundings and sample the local wines. The route offered a great choice of wineries, and the whole experience was well organised and easy to enjoy at our own pace. The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful, making us feel welcome throughout the day. A special mention to Jessica and Aisha, who were particularly lovely and helped make the experience even more enjoyable. Overall, a wonderful day out and a great way to experience the Franschhoek Winelands without having to worry about driving between wineries. We would definitely recommend the Wine Tram to anyone visiting the area! - Jessica

It was an absolute fairytale!!! - Marina
