Add a Wine Tram trip

Let The Wine Tram take you back in time to over 300 years ago when the first refugees from France arrived to make Franschhoek their home to find a magical valley perfect for continuing their lifelong passion for wine making.  Travelling through the Franschhoek Valley wine estates is an experience to satisfy all the senses, with internationally acclaimed wines, world class cuisine and a rich tapestry of history set against a backdrop of acre upon acre of perfectly laid out vineyards, all set in an area of unparalleled beauty framed by the mountains of Franschhoek Valley.

The Wine Tram will take you on a narrated tour through these beautiful wine estates in our unique open-air tram and open-air bus, taking you through the history of the different estates and the exceptional, unique wines that are produced by each wine maker.

Visitors to Cape Town all have a bucket list of places to see, from iconic Table Mountain to the surrounding beaches and up the West Coast to see the profusion of flowers that bloom in spring, but a visit to the vineyards in Franschhoek is an essential to add to your list to round your visit off perfectly!
