5.00We couldn’t have been happier with this tour. Melita was such a great guide., we learned so much about the island, and she is highly entertaining. The locations were beautiful, and we really enjoyed the variety on this tour - wine, olive oil, beer, and spirits.. the lunch was really good, and the location on the top of the mountain was spectacular. The small group size meant we could get to know the other participants. Loved it all!
Melita was awesome!

5.00This was a great experience trip with variety that we really enjoyed: winery, Olive Oil Mill, brewery and distillery! Melita was very knowledgeable and provided additional history, local information about the island and additional places to go and see if we had more time in the area. She also had fun energy and our group had an excellent day!

5.00We had the pleasure of spending the day with Melita touring the island and enjoying her knowledge and wittiness while tasting amazing wines at Casita Miro, tasting local olive oil, enjoying a great lunch at Batch winery and to top it off a beer (or spirits) tasting at The Heke. With a small group of lovely people, this was a perfect day even with the rainy weather. Thanks Melita! :)
Good Wine, Good Olive Oil and Honey, Good Restaurant, Good Beer/Spirits, and most importantly, very good tour guide

5.00Glenn was so knowledgeable, experienced and very funny. He greeted us by name at the ferry terminal with great enthusiasm. The van was spacious and comfortable. The tour was just the right length. Not too slow and not too rushed. We were blessed with blue skies and wonderful weather for a July winter. The choice of vineyards was excellent and worth the time and money for this premium tour of the island. I would definitely recommend you take this. See you again someday Glenn.
