We had a great time. Our driver was very knowledgeable and even though I've lived in AZ 30 years I learned a lot about AZ history on the drive. All 3 wineries were good and we ended up buying 6 bottles! The pizza at the 3rd stop was also good. It was a great value and nice not to have to drive. Highly recommended.
A must do in Tucson

We met Kathy on time. As we drove from Tucson to the wine country Kathy revealed us with the history of old Arizona. We stopped at three vineyards and sampled the wines. Each of us had a different favorite but we all agreed that the wines from this region of Arizona were exceptional. I would recommend this tour for the fun and the learning.

Taffy was great, she offered lots of interesting history along the journey. She offered lots of snacks to go with our wine as well. Lunch itself could use an upgrade, but the wineries and wine were great!
Fun & Relaxing

Great chance to taste Arizona wines in beautiful surroundings. Enjoyed each of the three stops, as each offered something a little different in terms of both wines and atmosphere. Highly recommend!
