The Wine Tram has been a revelation to the Cape and is one of the best experiences in the whole region. You get to see the natural beauty of the area, whilst visiting the stunning wine farms and tasting a variety of wines, the knowledge of the staff on the Tram is excellent and the whole service is slick and professional. Congratulations to the whole team and to the owners for the vision to create this incredible setup that is now being enjoyed by thousands of people and for the positive impact and ripple effect it plays into the economy. - Kusasa
