Without a doubt…the best wine tour in the region! - Having experienced wine tastings across the world, I can honestly say this was among the very best! Bob was prompt in his pick-up and gave us a great overview of the region (in his beautiful classic Mercedes) while we traveled to the first cellar door. From there, we traveled across the region - tasting amazing wines and enjoying a delightful lunch. We continued to some extraordinary wineries in the afternoon and ended our tour having learned so much - and enjoyed wonderful varietals from across Central Otago. Head and shoulders above the larger bus tours - most highly recommended for the perfect day exploring all the best that Central Otago has to offer. We cannot wait to return to try more wineries!!!

Perfect experience! - Bob is as good a tour guide as you are likely to find. His passion for his home town/region are obvious in everything he does. He seems to know everyone and does everything in his power to make the trip a memorable one. Could not recommend him more!

Must do wine tour of Central Otago! - Bob was a fantastic tour guide around Cental Otago! He's a true local - everywhere we went Bob was greeted with a friendly smile by owners and staff of the vineyard. He brought us to true hidden gems within Central Otago with not just excellent wine but breathtaking views. The entire day was all inclusive making the experience a great price and Bob was a lovely companion. It was great getting to learn about wine, the local area, and Bob himself! Would highly recommend and would do the tour again next time I am in town with new visitors!

Must do, awesome day out! - What a fabulous way to visit some amazing local wineries. Bob made us feel at ease right away, such a friendly lovely man. Bob is very professional with great local knowledge of the area. The wineries were fantastic and really interesting learning about the individual wineries and local wines, as for the lunch just look at the photos...so good! Highly recommend, Bob certainly goes above and beyond.

The best way to go wine-tasting! - We wanted to visit some wineries which were a bit “off the beaten track” and we didn’t know a) where to start and b) how we were going to drive our camper van after tasting(!). On a friend’s recommendation we booked Bob. Best thing we could have done! We were picked up from our campsite, driven in comfort to 4 great wineries, all brilliant in their own way, had a delicious lunch (not the usual cheese platter oh my goodness not at all!), learnt a lot about the area and non-stop laughs with Bob, who returned us to our van safe and sound. Great day, great value, happy to recommend to everyone.

Best Wine Tour! Best Tour Guide! - Incredible Wine Tour! Bob was full of knowledge but talked about it in a fun way without boring us on our tour. He was professional, fun and accommodated well with allergies and ensuring we were looked after. Highly recommend to anyone for a more personal and fun wine tour - this is your guy!

Classic Cromwell - We visited 3 wineries within the region which offered up different flavours depending on location. Bob was very knowledgble and super friendly. Lunch was a food wine pairing event which was really great. At the end of the day we had a refreshing cocktail in the old part of Cromwell. Bob meet us the next day just out of town to return a pair of sunglasses that we had left behind. Would highly recomend this tour. Catherine
