We arrived in Port on a cruise ship and it was a short walk to the meeting point. It was everything as advertised. The Guide was excellent and an overall great experience.

The trip explanation stated that we would be taken to 3-4 wineries, receive lunch and have an opportunity to see old growth trees and go to a seaside village for shopping. The maximum number of people would be 6. However, when the driver arrived to pick us up there were already 5 people in the van. When I asked him about this, he said there would be a total of 9. We did stop along the route to view a vista of the water and islands. The Cherry Point winery and Maria who gave us a great orientation of their winery and wines were very nice. We bought an award winning Pinot Noir there. The driver stopped to pick up our lunches and we went on to the Blue Grouse winery. Again the winery and Kelly who gave us our orientation were very nice. She also said she was only expecting 6 people. The lunch was delicious and the facility was beautiful. We then stopped at a little farm house that sold very tasty bakery items. The third winery, The Venturi-Schultz Vineyard was the worst winery and orientation we have ever had in our experiences of visiting many wineries in the the US and Europe. Michelle gave a very odd and long orientation filled with foul language and indicated that she didn't care if anyone liked her products or bought anything. Our party of 4 were not impressed with her performance or products and couldn't wait to get out of there. Our driver, Tyco, did a good job of picking us up on time, driving us and giving information about the area and wineries. He, however, gave a little too much personal information for our comfort, i.e. desire to live in a nudist colony and derogatory comments about Tesla.
