Key features of the Franschhoek Wine Tram:

  1. Tram Routes: There are different tram routes, each covering a specific section of the Franschhoek wine region. The routes are designed to take you through some of the most renowned wine estates in the area. The most common routes are the Blue Line, Red Line, and Orange Line, each with varying stops.

  2. Hop-on-hop-off: You can get off at any of the designated stops along the route, visit the wineries, enjoy wine tastings, and then hop back on the tram when you’re ready to continue. This flexibility allows for a relaxed and leisurely experience.

  3. Wine Estate Visits: The wine estates on the routes offer guided wine tastings, tours of the vineyards, and sometimes lunch options, giving guests an opportunity to enjoy a full experience at each stop.

  4. Frequency of Trams: Trams typically run throughout the day, with regular stops at each winery. The frequency can vary, but usually, the trams run every 30 to 45 minutes.

  5. Booking in Advance: It is advisable to book your tickets in advance, especially during peak tourist seasons, as the Wine Tram can be quite popular.

  6. Guides and Information: The tram offers informative commentary about the area and the wineries, helping visitors learn about the history of the region and the wine-making process.

  7. Family-friendly: While the wine tram is focused on wine tasting, it’s also a scenic and family-friendly experience, with some estates offering non-alcoholic options and activities for children.

The Franschhoek Wine Tram is a fantastic way to experience the stunning surroundings of the valley while enjoying world-class wines.
