Stunning ? - Mariane
This is well worth doing - the staff on the tram/buses are very helpful and pleasant and the whole system runs really well and strictly on time. Pigcasso ( on the Pink Line) is well worth a visit if you're keen on animals and wine. Highly recommended - David
Loved my first vineyard experience---time flew by way too fast. From the amazing wines and welcoming smiles to the breathtaking views and scenery, everything was perfect. The train and bus rides were so much fun, and I absolutely loved the tractor experience. Already counting down to my next visit - Justina
We did the Pink Line and absolutely loved the experience. We visited Rickety Bridge, Atlas Swift, Leopard's Leap, Pigcasso and Dieu Donne and every stop was fantastic in its own way. The bus and train experience was one of the highlights for us. Everything ran on time which made the day feel relaxed and effortless. The people on both the bus and the train were incredibly friendly, helpful and informative. They explained everything clearly and made sure everyone knew exactly what to do and where to go. It was such a fun and well organised day out with great wine beautiful scenery and a really welcoming atmosphere. We would 100% do this again and highly recommend it to anyone visiting the area. - Rene
It was a really nice experiance. All the stuff is very friendly and polite. The estates we have seen are all located in a very nice landscape. We enjoyed and had a beautiful day. Thank so much. - Susanne
