Explore the famous Franschhoek Wine Valley in the best way possible: on the Franschhoek hop-on hop-off wine tram and bus. Make the most of two separate routes, each stopping off at various wine estates around the area, and sample some local wine along the way.

Learn about the local history, which dates back over 300 years, when the Huguenots first settled here and brought over their knowledge of traditional viticulture from their native France. The valley has since been transformed into one of the most picturesque and beautiful winemaking regions in the world, full of proud heritage as well as stunning natural scenery.
