Exceptional Wine Tasting: A Personalized and Scenic Experience - We had an exceptional wine tasting experience. Despite our tight travel schedule, we booked the 11:30 AM slot, and it turned out to be perfect. We were fortunate to enjoy a personalized, one-on-one session, where the hosts were incredibly welcoming and patiently answered all of my beginner questions about wine tasting. And finally we got some amazing wines to take with us back home! I highly recommend driving to the location rather than walking, especially on a sunny day. The setting is stunning and absolutely worth the visit!

Excellent trip - Our guide, Marta, was excellent. We arrived far earlier than booked but she went ahead and took us on the tour, without any problem. She was very knowledgeable and always ensured we understood.

Great for couples - I really enjoyed this wine tour. Our guide was knowledgeable and had great energy. The wines we tasted were very very good and all different in taste and process. We bought one cheese and meat platter for 2 people and it was more than enough. We bought some wines and home made cherry jam at the end and the lady even called a taxi for us. I’d definitely come back!
