5.00Spent a thoroughly enjoyable and worthwhile day visiting a well selected variety of smaller, independent wineries - which was exactly what we wanted. We have consumed many wine varieties over the years, but still got to try a few varieties new to us on this tour. Full marks to our host Gavin, and to the folk at each cellar door he took us to.
Unforgettable Winery Tour with Fantastic Food and Hosts

5.00This was such a fantastic day! Our driver was funny, charismatic, and made the whole experience really enjoyable. The van was full but very comfortable, which made travelling between wineries easy and relaxing. The tour itself was well planned and gave us the chance to explore a variety of wineries, each with incredibly generous and knowledgeable hosts. The lunch venue was a real highlight—the food was outstanding, and the platter for two was absolutely unreal. Overall, a brilliant experience that was well worth both the money and the time.

5.00Me and my fiancée LOVED this tour. Our guide Gavin was so fun and easy going, and was SO informative about everything wine. We were the only 2 people on the tour so essentially ended up with a private full day tour. We loved everything wine minute of it. Thanks so much Gavin!

5.00Our experience was nothing short of top shelf. Our host’s profound knowledge of the region and its wines enriched every moment, and each cellar door we visited welcomed us with genuine passion. What made the day truly special was the pace — unhurried and relaxed — giving us time to savour both the wines and the atmosphere. A perfect balance of insight and ease, it was a day that felt both educational and indulgent.
