Fab wine tour trip! Marco was a fab bus driver and made sure that we got to both vineyards in time for our tour. The tours were fab and lots of tasting involved! Very enjoyable!
Thanks for the nice feedback, and we are glad to hear that you enjoyed Marco and the tour!
The views were amazing and so was the wine. Marco was an amazing tour guide - I am booking another tour (to Muir woods/Sausalito) just to have him as my guide! I had an excellent time and as a solo traveller met many new friends.
That is great to hear! Thank you for joining our tours with Marco and for taking the time to share your experience.
This trip was amazing! Marco the bus driver was fantastic and so helpful in guiding us around San Francisco and the vineyards, I couldn’t have wished for a better tour guide!
On behalf of Marco, thanks for joining our wine tour! We appreciate the feedback, and we hope to see you with Big Bus Tours again!
The confusion of the redemption process and having to activate the bus, hop on, hop off was irritating. We finally outlasted the large numbers of people to get a seat on the upper deck. Only to be told we had to get off half way through our circuit and queue again. Lots of wasted time and we were never able to take advantage of the second day. Very disappointed.
We are sorry about the confusion and inconvenience that occurred during your tour. We understand your frustration and appreciate the feedback, which we will advise our management team so that we can improve. If you should have any more feedback or questions, you can reach us directly at sfreservations@bigbustours.com. Sincerely, Big Bus Tours SF
The tour is a real scam. They promise tours of the vineyards and visits to the wineries and when you arrive nothing of the sort. They only give you four drinks of wine to try in a room and in a garden. No vineyard tours nor did we see any wineries. More than 5 hours of travel for nothing. Disappointing.
Thank you for sharing your experience with us. We apologize this did not live up to your expectations or ours. When you have a moment, would you be able to email us at sfreservations@bigbustours.com to let us know more about your time with us and how we can improve?
The guide was super sweet but they only take you to 3 wineries. Traffic was terrible and the wines weren’t that good. Probably better off hiring a car.
We are sorry to hear that you did not enjoy the Wine Country Tour. If you have any further specific details to provide, please feel free to reach us directly at sfreservations@bigbustours.com, as we are always looking for ways to improve. Sincerely, Big Bus Tours (operator of Tower Tours.)
Marco was an amazing guide! We had a great experience visiting Napa Valley. Well worth the money and time to do this trip.
Thank you for letting us know about your great experience on our wine tour - glad to hear that Marco was amazing, too! We appreciate the feedback and the 5-star review!
Great tour. Driver (Marco) was funny and kept things interesting with fact about the country side we were driving through. The two wineries were excellent. Wonderful tour guides who were very knowledgeable about wine and the histories of their wineries. I definitely book another tour with big bus to Nappa Valley again.
We appreciate the great review and feedback! Glad to hear Marco made the tour enjoyable for you. Thank you and we look forward to seeing you again!
Very friendly driver with lots of space and very knowledgeable of the history of the area was very entertaining on the way. He gave plenty of time for us to use facilities and to tour the wineries.
Thank you for the feedback and the positive review - we appreciate that and hope to see you again!
Margo our tour guide was amazing! This adventure was well worth every penny!!! I highly recommend taking this tour if you want to discover your love for wine or even finding your new favorite wine!
Thank you for sharing your experience with us. We are happy to know you had an amazing wine tour with Marco. We hope you will tour with us again!
