Lovely people for a lovely days cruising the Bay. Thanks for a great review. Cheers Craig
Craig was an excellent host the wineries chosen were all a little different from each other making it a wonderful experience
Hi Debbie, Many thanks for your kind review, Cheers Craig
What a fantastic tour! Our tour guide for the day was Craig along with his retro VW Bus! How cool was that traveling around in all day. We had one other couple with us (lovely couple from England), which made the day perfect! We were taken to three wineries (Askerne, Brookfields Estate, and finished with Mission Estate). Loved all three and they were all completely different. Loved the wine at all of them as well as the Charcuterie Board on a peaceful patio at Askerne, the adorable dog and lovely grounds at Brookfields (together with learning about their origins), followed by the history, barrel room and beautiful setting at Mission. Thankfully we were able to bring wine back to our ship, so we had wonderful wine on our balcony while cruising. Craig is a very interesting tour guide, with so much information regarding not only the wines at each stop, but the region as well. Napier was beautiful and interesting, but so much more we didn't have time to see, so.... we will be back and expect Craig to be waiting for us!
Yes we had a great day, Im awaiting your return for some special "underground" places to visit !!! Cheers Craig
Our winery tour with Craig was sensational, we had such a great time. Craig was an awesome host , very personable and we would do the tour again no doubt.

Wow , what a day!! Craig was unbelievable, so knowledgeable and friendly. We had an unbelievable day visiting 4 wineries, sampling their wares and meeting great people.
Hi Team, many thanks for the great review, hope to see you again soon, Cheers Craig

Lovely wine with Lovely People, many thanks for your review, cheers Craig
We really enjoyed Craig’s commentary and knowledge of the area! Really fun day with beautiful wine tastings
Thanks Guys, we did have a fun day !!!
Excellent experience. Craig was an excellent host and driver. His van is unique and comfortable and he was full of stories and information. The wineries were excellent and took exceedingly good care of us.
Hey thanks Jeff, keep that Lyle in check ! Cheers Craig
Excellent trip. Really recommend. Craig was great. Some of best wineries I have been to. My husband and I had a great afternoon.
Super day out, thanks for touring with us Cheers Craig
Excellent guide, very knowledgable. Visited very good wineries with an exception of Brookfield's winery, where visit was below par, rushed, with very little interest from employees (owners?) Not worth the fee the guide had to cover!
oh well otherwise a fun day out , cheers Craig
