we had a fantastic experience on this tour. Love that it started by exploring the Rotunda at UVA and our guide Jeremiah was extremely knowledgeable in the history. Then even though it was a two winery tour, he got us into a third winery so we could experience as much as possible. Jeremiah was very friendly and knowledgeable and went out of his way to make us feel important. Even while driving between wineries, he filled us in on the local history and what makes Charlottesville Charlottesville. would highly recommend.
Great way to experience Charlottesville area

My friend and I had only a couple of days to work with and wanted to experience as much of the area and some wineries, as possible on a tour. This one was perfect. Our very personable guide, Jeremiah, provided great information on the area and some highlights and also took us to three different wineries to experience tastings. It was a great day.
