How to read a hop on hop off timetable!

Updated: Feb 10

First of all, don't stress if the timetable may be too much for your eyes :)

We get it, it may have been a while since you last looked at a good old fashioned timetable. Plus, most of the time we can access train and bus times via apps so there's really no need to read a timetable.

Unfortunately for us, apps are really expensive so we're sticking with a good old timetable for now :)


TOP TIPS

  1. Read the timetable from top to bottom

  2. Visit venues in order of the timetable

  3. The times in each column are the pick up and departure times

  4. Bus loops around every hour, meaning you can spend more time at a venue if you wish


Here's an example itinerary including 4 stops, spending 1 hour at each:

bus timetable

Stop 1: Coombe Estate - bus arrives at 11:05am & departs at 12:05pm

Stop 2: Domaine Chandon - bus arrives at 12:23pm & departs at 1:23pm

Stop 3: Dominique Portet - bus arrives at 1:30pm & departs at 2:30pm

Stop 4: Four Pillars Distillery - bus arrives at 2:57pm & departs at 3:57pm

Hopefully the above has helped a little bit but you may still have some questions:


HOT QUESTIONS WE GET ASKED ALL THE TIME :)

Can I visit stops further down the timetable first and then go back to the top?

We don't recommend this as you'll be spending more time on the bus rather than at the wineries.

Do I need to remember the times the bus comes back around?

How many stops should I visit?

What times should I refer to when making reservations at the venues?

Can I just hop off where I feel like on the day?

Is 1 hour enough for most stops?


Now that you're a timetable expert - let's plan YOUR Hop It Day!
