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.

We have 2 vehicles that run this tour. We primarily use a 24 seater bus but purposefully dont fill it up to still give the tour an intimate and small-group feel. We only allow 18 people max book.

Andrew was an absolute delight as a tour guide. Charming in the most effortless way, he kept the atmosphere light and enjoyable from start to finish. His explanations were clear and detailed. If you’re looking for a pleasant, patient, engaging, accommodating, and musical tour guide, he’s your man.
