We really enjoyed our day with wine tram and bus. Also with our little kids IT was fun and the stops are all great with a lot of space and playgrounds. - Horntrich
We had a fantastic experience exploring the wine route by tram and bus! Everything was well-organized, and the whole journey felt relaxed and fun. The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful, always greeting us with a smile and happy to share local tips. The views along the route were beautiful, and each winery had its own charm. The whole experience was a perfect mix of great wine, stunning scenery, and warm hospitality. Highly recommend it to anyone visiting the area! - David
