The experience, with its array of positive aspects, is impressive. Firstly, I'd like to highlight the quality of the wines. At the 4 wineries we visited (Rickety Bridge, Grand Provence, Franschhoek Cellar, and Haute Cabriere), we could truly attest to their excellence. Learning a bit about the history of each, along with their specialties, added another layer to our journey. Secondly, I must mention the convenience of the transportation. With a new boarding opportunity every 30 minutes, we had no worries at all. Additionally, the charm of the tram stands out as another delightful aspect of this experience. It's like taking a step back in time, experiencing those beautiful landscapes aboard such a special vehicle. Lastly, I'd like to extend my gratitude to all the helpful and friendly staff, always ready to assist. I highly recommend this tour and rate it a perfect 10! - Sergio
We spent a delightful half-day on the red line tram through three wine cellars. What a fantastic experience! From the punctual and organised tram to the friendly crew, every aspect was top-notch. The complementary wine and stunning scenery added to the enjoyment. Highly recommended! - Krystyna
