Mobile ticket
Our wine tour is a social, down to earth and laid back trip that offers great wines, gin, cider and more..and we have a laugh doing it!
We'll pick you up in the morning and focus on everyone getting to know each other. We get everyone to add to a Spotify playlist so we have some tunes and spend the first hour just chatting!
Our itinerary has been crafted over the many years to give everyone choice throughout the day. This is done by selecting venues that are very close to other types of venues so you get as much control and choice as possible.
Generally we go to 2 Wineries (one of which also does cider), then lunch at your expense, then onto your choice of a Gin distillery, A brewery or a winery and finally your choice of a chocolate tasting or another winery. Cheese is also available
We don't include lunch in the price, so we go to a restaurant (Quarters or Chandon) where you can order/pay what you want to eat/drink.
We use a 24 seater bus but generally fill 15-22 seats.

5.00We had an absolute ripper event on the winery tour with Stefan as our driver. We have done multiple event similar to these and this one would be one of best. Stefan was very relatable and felt like part of the group but also guided us through all our stops and kept us in time with everything Much appreciated

5.00We had an amazing day visiting three wineries and a distillery, and Stefan made the whole experience absolutely seamless from start to finish. He was punctual, professional, and incredibly friendly, ensuring everything ran smoothly while still giving us plenty of time to relax and enjoy each stop. His knowledge of the area, great sense of humour, and genuine care for our group made the day even more memorable. We felt completely safe and well looked after the entire time — highly recommend Stefan for anyone planning a winery tour!
