Warum diese Tour
The Franschhoek Wine Tram is the Winelands' most charming day out — a vintage-style tram and tram-bus that threads the Franschhoek Valley's finest estates together along a historic rail line. We run it as a set-route guided tour: a fixed itinerary of hand-picked estates, with your day, your tastings and your return all taken care of.
Each route calls at a cluster of the valley's cellars in a set order. You travel together with your group, stop at every estate on the loop, and let us handle the timing — a tasting here, a vineyard lunch there, and the tram carrying you between them. No driving, no scheduling, no surprises.
It's the easiest way to do Franschhoek: relaxed, curated, and built for groups, couples and families who want a full valley day without any of the logistics.
One historic rail line, a valley full of cellars, and nobody in your group has to count their glasses and then drive.
