We had a fantastic experience on our wine tour, and a big part of that was thanks to Zoran! He was friendly, professional, and incredibly knowledgeable about the area, sharing interesting facts and local recommendations throughout the day. He also suggested an excellent spot for lunch, and it ended up being one of the highlights of our day. Everything ran smoothly, we never felt rushed, and it was so nice to relax and enjoy the wineries without worrying about driving. If you’re looking for a wine tour with great service and a knowledgeable driver who goes above and beyond, I highly recommend this company—and if you get Zoran, you’re in for a great day!
Zoran was an amazing driver/guide. Highly recommend!
Zoran was outstanding as a guide. Very knowledgeable, friendly and helpful. WS a wonderful experience for my wife and I on our anniversary.
We had a great 5 hour tour with our guide and driver Tony. A couple of young ladies were grouped with us and they made it a special day to remember for a long time. Highly recommend.
The wineries were excellent, and the wine was fantastic. My wife especially enjoyed the Ice Wines, which were a real highlight of the day. Our driver, Zoran, was absolutely outstanding. He was knowledgeable about the area, easy to talk to, and made the entire experience feel personal and relaxed. By the end of the day, it felt less like we had a driver and more like we were spending time with a friend. This was a wonderful experience from start to finish, and I would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a memorable wine tour.
We had the best time. The booking process was so easy and the communication excellent. Our driver Marko was wonderful! We will definitely book again.
This tour was exceptional and we had a great time in spite of the rain. Marko was a great guide, very knowledgeable, accommodating, and the 4 wineries were awesome. If we are back in the area, I would definitely do this tour again.
My husband and I visited NOTL this past (rainy) weekend and had booked this wine tour. Our tour guide was Marko! His communication was top notch, made sure to check in the day before and day of pick up. We were picked up in a beauty white Navigator and were paired up with 2 other couples, both coincidentally having an anniversary. Everything went smooth and Marko was lovely! We went to Hare, Between the Lines, lunch downtown, then Reif and Caroline Cellars. All around great wine tour!
My experience was a memorable, adventures of a lifetime that everyone should plan and experience
Let me begin by saying it was very disappointing. We had a wine tour and Corey who was our coordinator canceled it last minute at 9.39am when we were suppose to get picked up at the Hilton for 11am. Saying there was not enough people. When I contacted viator they weren't informed that it was canceled. I got refunded back 2 of my reservation but I haven't gotten back the other 2, supposedly there waiting for it to get confirmed which I don't understand because I did not cancel. We came from Toronto purposely to go to this wine tasting, a complete disappointment and as far as Corey he was not professional abit rude and didn't care at all!
