Super fun trip with Army, our guide and 13 others. There wasn't one person in the trip I didn't like. I guess it makes sense to visit three wineries, but we all were a bit tipsy by the end (hence the reason for the shuttle service). Army was full of trivia on the Napa Valley region. Lunch was delicious - a box lunch but upgraded. I would say try it, you'll like it!
Viator's tour source, Platypus, was amazing! Pre-tour communications were outstanding...they were flexible, on-time, and provided us with an engaging, funny, informative driver, Richard Casey. The afternoon was spent wine tasting at 3 smaller, specialized Napa Valley wineries, learning about wine & wine production, and a enjoying a fabulous, boxed lunch. Our small group was great and we were all laughing like best of friends by the end of day. Never would we have been able to have this much fun on our own! Don't miss this experience...we highly recommend!
We are not drinkers. So the tour was only winery visit. So it’s a medium rated tour for non drinkers
Hi Arindam, Thank you for sharing your experience. While wine tasting is always optional on our tours, I certainly understand that a winery-focused day on the small-group tour may have less appeal for non-drinkers. Had we known in advance, we may have been able to guide you to more catered experience. Our private tours offer more flexibility, including other wine country activities and wineries with non-alcoholic options. We appreciate you spending the day with us and hope you enjoyed your time in Napa Valley. Kind Regards, Shawnda
I did this with my mom and it was amazing going to all of these smaller wineries. We love to support small businesses and we’re so well taken care of by the tour bus driver and the wineries. We truly had an unforgettable experience! Would for sure do this one again when we come back to Napa!
Hi Julie! Smaller wineries, a day with Mom, and an experience worth doing all over again—we'll happily take that review! 😊 I especially love that supporting small businesses matters to you. It matters to us, too. Thanks for spending your Napa Valley day with us! Warm Wine Country Regards, Shawnda
We have now gone on the Platypus Small Group Napa Valley wine tour twice (4 years apart). Both times it was a great experience. They take you to smaller vineyards and not the same ones. We did not repeat any of the vineyards we visited our time. The lunch included was fresh and delicious. Our guide, Louis, was knowledgeable and fun. They picked us up and dropped us off at our hotel. There were about 5 couples total on the tour and this was similar to the last time we went. All fun people from all over. They picked us up about 10:45am and dropped us off at about 4:30pm.
Hi! Four years later and back for round two—we love that! Thank you for trusting us with another Napa Valley day. I'm especially glad you enjoyed an entirely new set of wineries this time around. I'll be sure Luis sees your kind words, and hopefully we won't have to wait another four years for round three! 😊 Warm Wine Country Regards, Shawnda
Courtney was adorable! And very organized with making sure we left with our purchases for the day. Our group was so much fun as we shared stories and enjoyed our time together. It was like being with old friends. We loved the vineyards we visited mainly because they were family driven and passionate about their wines. Lunch on the grounds surrounded by the vineyard was breathtaking. It was a perfect way to experience Napa Valley and we highly recommend this tour. All the thinking was left up to Courtney and we didn’t have to give it a second thought. Thank you for an awesome day!!
Hi Roberta! I have to smile at "all the thinking was left up to Courtney." That's exactly what a great guide should do—take care of everything while everyone else is busy becoming old friends. 😊 Courtney is going to love this review. Thank you for such kind words and for spending the day with us! Warmly, Shawnda
We did a wine tour with Platypus through the Napa Valley. The beauty of this Tour is that the bus driver decides which winemakers to visit. Our guide Louis knew a lot about the surroundings of the wineries he had selected and the wines themselves than especially where the global key figures and history. The winemakers we visited on this ride were totally top, small family winemakers who produce delicious wines. The pity of this is that they do not export wines abroad or send them abroad at all, while this would have been interesting partly because there were very nice wines among them. At most wineries, if you buy two or three bottles on this tour, you won't have to pay for the tasting itself. In addition to the costs you pay to Platypus, you also have to deal with the costs of the wine tasting which cost € 25 per person per winery. This is normally more expensive, but because you come via Platypus there are price agreements. If you join this tour, you will pay for the tour where you will be picked up and dropped off at your hotel or another place where you meet and where you do not have the pressure to drink wine if you do not want to. The diversity of the wineries is nice to see and you get to taste both white wines, Rose wines and red wines with each its own characteristics. The other nice aspect of this kind of tour is that you end up in a company that you don't know who they are or where they come from beforehand. Yet you quickly notice that you form a group with totally strange people and this in itself is very nice. In short, a must if you stay in the region of Napa Valley and you obviously love wine.
Hi! Thank you for such a thoughtful review. I especially loved your description of how a group of complete strangers quickly becomes a group—that's one of our favorite parts, too. I'm delighted Luis introduced you to some wonderful family-owned wineries and wines you may never have discovered otherwise. I'll be sure he sees your kind words. Perhaps we'll get to welcome you back from the Netherlands someday! Warm Wine Country Regards, Shawnda
Comfortable, on-time shuttle. Chris was a fun and informative host. We appreciated the choice of wineries and tastings. This tour kept costs reasonable for moderately experienced wine drinkers. Would book again.
Hi! Thank you for the thoughtful review. We're especially happy to hear you felt the day was a good value—that means a lot to us. I'll be sure Chris sees your kind words. And "would book again" is the highest of compliments, thank you. Warmly, Shawnda
Well organized. Fun getaway. Everything was planned in advance so all we had to do was show up. Lunch was delicious.
Hi Mark! That's exactly what we want for our guests—you show up, and we've got the rest. 😊 Thank you for recognizing all the work that happens behind the scenes to make the day feel easy. We're so glad you enjoyed yours! Cheers, Shawnda
Amazing experience, we had an absolute blast, Wolf was a wonderful guide, highly recommend this experience!!
Hi Rebecca! An absolute blast is exactly what we like to hear! 😊 Wolf will be so happy to know he helped make your Napa Valley day amazing. Thank you for the enthusiastic recommendation—we sincerely appreciate it! Warm Regards, Shawnda
