What a great way to experience Hobart's food & wine region. Peter is a fantastic guide who has built strong relationships with the owners/managers of these boutique locations & was very knowledgeable about the area. We got to visit a four different wineries with generous tastings, a cheese factory, had a lovely pizza for lunch. We even had time for a one hour stop with free time to explore the town of Richmond & a bonus stop at a lookout with an amazing view of Hobart. Highly recommend.
Peter took us on an adventure that was fun, factual and a selection of four great wineries
This wineries tour with Peter was amazing, great guide, recommend to everyone
We had the best time on our tour, it was tailored to us as we're local to Hobart and would definitely recommend to anyone wanting a great day out
Our wine tour with @boutiquewinetours was a great success. Peter was both personable and knowledgeable, offering stories and insights about local history and events throughout our time together. He is a 9th generation Tasmanian and certainly knows his way around! He met the small group of six of us of us in Hobart on time and transported us through the Coal River Valley to four wineries (one where we had homemade pizza for lunch). Each selected winery had a nice array of wines to taste and provided us with enough time together to chat casually and get to know one another without feeling rushed. At tour’s end, Peter personalized our drop-offs, providing two of our group a trip to the airport and us to our hotel location just west of our downtown drop off. I left my bag with my phone and wallet in the van, not realizing it until we got back to our room. Peter took the time and effort to drive back to our hotel and return my things on his own dime. Overall, a great tour on a beautiful day with a good guy!
All the stops are close in proximity with beautiful scenery so lots to see and many great wines to taste. Really enjoyed the day
Really knowledgeable about the areas and had some fun facts travelling and at each location. Flexible and warm approach. Would go again. Suggest you bring your own water for the bus if that's your thing!
