Something to do on a Saturday. - This was a fun and informative way to spend a Saturday. Our driver was Tafe. She shared history of how the US came to get Az and Tucson. We passed the “bone yard”. Tafe explained what this was and why it’s so important to the Air Force. Tafe was very informative and has a neat sense of humor. The three wineries we visited were very good! This was a very good experience! Tafe is an excellent docent and I felt she provided an excellent review of these wineries so we were able to experience each winery by tasting the various wines offered.

Great tour of Arizona wine country - Very enjoyable tour! Learned a lot about the Arizona wine industry and the Tucson area. Our guide, Mike, was very knowledgeable about the area. The scenery on the drive to the wineries was beautiful!

Very recommended ✨🍷 - Tafe is really knowledgeable and attentive. She is always on time. She gave us much time to enjoy each of the 3 vineyards, provided us with water and lots of snacks. She dropped me to my house after the trip so no need to worry about getting home after all the great wine :) She drove carefully while sharing the interesting stories on Tucson history. Transportation vehicle was also convenient and clean. Very much recommended trip!

The best of Arizona Wine Country! - The Friday tour was so good that we went back for the wine tour on Saturday. We visited three vineyards, all great choices. Tafe saved the best for last and provided a picnic lunch under the trees by the pond at Autumn Sage. Such a relaxing, fun day.

Wonderful time - What a wonderful tour, hearing the history of Tucson and how the wine industry started in the area. The winery’s we went to were awesome, great tasting experience. Outdoor music at two of them, and had a great time meeting new people on tour. Kathy our guide was great as was the wine, I ended up buying 5 bottles in total at the winery’s that we went to. I’d take the tour again and again.❤️🍷❤️🍷

Great day - Tafe was great. Nice wines, although majority of them are red. Fun people in the group. A little more time at each venue would have been better.
