What a wonderful day!! Highly recommended, very punctual and easy to book. - Sarah
We really enjoyed our Winetram trip, so much so in fact that we did it all again a couple of days later. Franschhoek was our first stop on our South African road trip and this experience really got us in the mood. Everything is so well organised and even though it all seems rather complex it works like clockwork and we just relaxed and went with the flow. Nathan and the rest of the team on the tram and at the office were really professional and helped make the day really special. We stopped at some stunningly beautiful wineries, all different in their own way. I think it was quite nice to do it during the off season months as it was a very peaceful, low key experience without the crowds. It was a really memorable day and we would definitely recommend this trip to anyone. - Paul
