Traveler Reviews

Loved the smaller boutique wineries, with breath taking views and gardens! Giles was a very informative, funny and extremely helpful guide, could not fault him at all. we all had the best time!! much recommended :)

This is not a wine tour- it is a trip a cheap van with dreadful uncomfortable seats that are not fit for purpose. Giles knows nothing about wine but thinks he does so his constant talking about something he knows nothing about becomes irritating - he likes low end wines so took us to low end vineyards with unmemorable wines- he seems to think tasting a lot a wine equals a good tour. There was no lunch included just a small plate of bad food out of a supermarket deli and very small portions of it as well. Unfortunately he ate with us so even the supposed lunch was him droning on. Don't waste your money

A very knowledgeable guide that made the day.The explanations of each wine gave us a good grounding of the wines. Also the differences between the wines was remarkable some nice some not so much.

Such an amazing day. Giles was so knowledgeable and passionate about wine and we had awesome chats to and from the wineries. The wineries he chose were all so different and we had a blast feasting with our eyes on all of the gorgeous scenery and enjoying the delicious wine. Thanks for giving us a great experience Giles!

Awesome day out, very well organized. Great to have both Jesse and also Giles for the day too. Fantastic beer, food and company. Great way to meet new people and relax and laugh together. Also good to try some new places outside the norm where the people are passionate about their beers.
