Had a fabulous time on the Red line. Trams and buses were prompt. The staff were welcoming and helpful.good value for money - Christine
Loved the wine bus. Delightful staff and good atmosphere. Never made the tram because we had such a great time at Eikoff (2hours) wine cheese & meat pairing thanks to Caleb. Would go back every week if we could! Then 3 hours at Lynx. Stunning views and again such lovely people and delicious food. Definitely going there again too. Can't wait til next year for another visit. Will spend longer in Franshhoek - Michelle
What a superb experience! We'd definitely recommend the red line and in autumn as the colours of the vineyards are just something special. Loved the experience in the trams & buses - would highly recommend this for tourists and locals! - Kirstin
On time, clean, friendly, informative. We enjoyed the service and it made for a fun way to stop and enjoy the five wineries we visited. We visited Eikehof, Pasarene, Haute Cabriere, Rickety Bridge, and Grand Provence. If we had more days, we would have ridden the wine tram again on a different line to visit additional wine farms. - Robert
A very enjoyable and informative experience. A creative and engaging way to visit the vineyards, which we would not have found for ourselves. The schedule was well organised and on schedule. The trams and busses were clean and well maintained, Our thanks to all the team. - Sara
