What a fantastic wine tour experience! Our guide Ian was very friendly and knowledgeable, and went above and beyond, taking us to the supermarket at the end of the tour to grab supplies before dropping us back to our accommodation. A great selection of wineries and wine tastings. Highly recommend this tour, thank you Ian. Warm regards Rae, Phil, Simon and Rosemary.
