Guides to Paarl
- Wine tasting prices in Paarl: what each estate chargesWhat a wine tasting costs at each Paarl estate, from the prices on their own websites: the standard tasting at every estate that publishes one, pairings, booking, the Wine Tram's Paarl stops, and how Paarl compares with the other valleys.
- How the Franschhoek Wine Tram works: lines, times and costsThe Franschhoek Wine Tram's five hop-on hop-off lines, the estates on each, how often the tram and its buses run, what a day costs once the tastings are added, and three sample days.
