Very efficient and TONS of fun! Bus was ready and waiting at the ferry terminal and all staff/drivers were helpful, informative and fun! Throughout the day, buses arrived at stops at regular intervals…never had to wait very long! Only difficulty was choosing which of the many wonderful options of wineries/breweries to stop at!

If no one tells you early, TASTING ROOMS CLOSE AT 5!!! I didn't learn this until late afternoon and was bummed. Spent way too much time at the mediocre charlie Farley's when I could have been tasting! Otherwise, great experience, map is helpful but did not find the drivers/guides much help. One set was exuberant and fun, the others were just eh.

Beautiful vinyards and enjoyable breweries. Nice walking beach. If you go during peak summer season, be sure to arrive at the ferry at least an hour early

Well organized hop on hop off. Loved tour guide on board to answer questions. Excellent! Also, availability of public transportation as alternative after 5pm was convenient.
