Was a very nice personal tour with visits to some amazing places. Maybe the full day trip trying to visit 4 wine farms could be reduced to say 3 farms with lunch at one of these 3 farms - it became quite tiring towards the end of the day. Our guide was quite competent and very pleasant

Our guid was very cool easy relaxed guied with the main concern of us enjoying our time. Treated us real good and kept recommending activities and what to eat and drink to really get to know the area. Also the guid gave us many explanations about the history and the cloture of the place. We had a great time and defenetly recomend.

Our guide took us to wineries which we hadn't heard of which was fine. When we went to some better known wineries Whig were very noisy, he was fine with our decision to leave, and very sensibly took us to a quieter winery, which was not on his itinerary . We really enjoyed and appreciated this move on his part so Well Done Joe !!
