5.00Was really nice to take the relatively long drive to the wineries. The scenery was so beautiful and our driver was so knowledgeable and was able to give us a lot of history which was fun. We made some new friends and drank some great wine.
Couldn’t arrange a p1ss up at a winery!

2.00I asked in advance if I could just taste reds. This seemed to be ok. Nearer the time they contacted me and said they can’t change and to pay more for the private tour. On cancellation, they helped themselves to a cancellation fee. What a shambles of a company. Use someone reputable not these muppets.

5.00Ted was our tour guide. Very charismatic and knowledgeable about the areas we drove through and the wineries/wine-making as well. Van was very comfortable. Very scenic beautiful drive As far as the wineries, all of them were fantastic in their descriptions and quality. Admittedly, my favorite was Carrick, but that may be because they fed us a fantastic lunch spread to go with our wines. All in all, a perfect tour from top to bottomz
Great Wine Experience

5.00We loved our wine tour!! We had so much fun and the wines were great. We did feel that the last stop was a little rushed by the winery but other than that we had a great time! Lunch was great and our tour guide was kind!
