Five stars for Shine The Way Tours, and especially our driver, Abel. We did the Franschhoek Wine Tram day trip from Cape Town and Abel made it. Right on time for our morning pickup, smooth and safe driving all day, and genuinely warm, easygoing, and knowledgeable about the area. He looked after us from start to finish and clearly takes real pride in what he does. If you book with Shine The Way Tours, ask for Abel - he turned a great day into an unforgettable one. Thank you, Abel!

Abel made the day We did the Franschhoek Wine Tram day out of Cape Town with Shine The Way Tours. Abel was our driver and a big part of why it was such a good day. On time, drove safe and smooth the whole way, knew the area well, and easy to talk to. You can tell he takes pride in what he does, and he's the reason the day stood out for us.

Poor experience This is NOT a private tour. I went with my family and we picked up a group of people on the way to the tours. Additionally, the estimated amount of money spent on wine tasting was extremely low. We spent at least 120 Rand on each tasting per person instead of the total 180 Rand estimated per trip. If you are planning a wine tour it would be cheaper to Uber your group to each vineyard or even take the train option. Do not book this trip if you expect a true private wine tour.

Perfect trip to Franschhoek Benda was an incredible guide from start to finish. He picked us up right on time at our Cape Town hotel and made the drive to Franschhoek feel effortless with his knowledge of the area and friendly conversation. Once we arrived, he made sure we were fully set for the Wine Tram hop‑on‑hop‑off experience and checked in throughout the day to ensure everything was going smoothly. Thanks to him, we had a relaxed, memorable day exploring the wineries. Highly recommend booking with Benda if you want a seamless, stress‑free experience. - John and Natasha
