Nice tour - This was quite a nice experience. You can use a bus to reach to the tram terminals. The bus collects from several locations, we preferred city sightseeing main information center at waterfront just in front of the aquarium. Overall there is a time tabke for the route you had selected and you need to plan accordingly. If you stop at a winery you need to stop like 1 hour. So maximum you can make 5 stops during the tour. Some wineries like Boschendal even takes 2 hours as there is another shuttke that takes you from the tram station to wine tasting area which is another 15-20 minutes one way. We had our lunch at Allee Bleu with a fantastic view. Overall timetable had ran like a clock. Helpful people at city sightseeing and wineries. Of course you can make similar tour with a car, but who will be the sober driver?

Exceptional tour! - We did the exceptional tour and it was INCREDIBLE! Simon’s knowledge and enthusiasm was unmatched and I had the most fun than on any other wine experience. We met some great people and it was definitely a highlight of the holiday. It’s great to have everything organised for you and to not have to think!

REJUVENATE YOUR LOVE LIFE 0656021848 - I would like to share my story of how I got my wife and financial life back. The endless fights I had with my wife led to 4 years of separation which also led to the collapse of our company yet we had invested a lot in it. With pain and struggle, I took care of my children and family as a single parent. I was referred by a friend to Healer Mama Sipho where I got the help I needed for all my problems. She gave me power oil that helps most of her Clients who are living a happy life now. Mama Sipho read my fortune and then cleansed me from the bad omens. She solved all my financial problems and my wife returned home.We are now living a healthy happy life together. I highly recommend others to Mama and Baba Sipho, will help you no matter where you are. Contact Baba on 0656021848

Unimpressed - Out of all the wonderful sites and experiences in Cape Town, this was my least favorite. It was very confusing to understand their system of different color “tags.” The problems did not start immediately, but as the tour progressed, we were not sure if we were supposed to get off the tram or stay on. Unfortunately for us, when we tried to ask the tour guide, he seemed impatient and annoyed. The young lady at the depot was very helpful. Unfortunately I failed to get her name. She was extremely helpful and understood our situation. I personally would not recommend this as a part of your Cape Town experience. The people at the vineyards were very nice, but the Tram tutor guide in my opinion was not very friendly or helpful.

7 of us left behind !! - The tour started off perfect, vineyards were good and transport tram and bus was well organized. BUT If you 5 min late for your return bus at the end of the tour you are left stranded and staff including management are not helpful in helping you organize a return ride back to Cape Town.They became very defensive saying its all our fault, understand if you leave 1 person behind but to leave 7 of us behind is a disgrace are there any counts done to validate that all guest are accounted for ? Seriously !!
