Wonderful experience from start to finish, the most amazing staff. Loved it. - Elaine
Lovely workers on the tram and buses that make the experience all the more better. Found an hour was enough time to have a relaxing wine tasting at all our stops as the wineries made sure to have some speed but still have great service. I am a travel agent so I am definitely recommending this for people travelling to the Cape. Definitely need to try other lines as well. - Meegan
Amazing experience, would highly recommend even if you not a wine drinker, you are bound to find a wine that you actually like! - Joshua
Absolutely superb time on the pink tram line, really friendly and helpful staff and the vineyards on the line were fantastic - PHILIPPA
It was our third experience on the wine tram, and we always thoroughly enjoy ourselves visiting the various wine farms. A great way to spend a day in Franschhoek. - Nicholas
