Absolutely the highlight of our trip. We highly recommend Anna and of course the 3 vineyards we visited
Anna was a fabulous guide! She took us to wonderful wineries. She has a great background in wine is a very good driver and, has a marvelous sense of humor. I highly recommend this tour!!
Fantastic tour of several wineries filled with interesting characters and great food/wine. This tour is more off the beaten path and well worth it. Our tour guide was very knowledgeable and accomidating. We needed to start in one place and finish in another which was no problem. Just a fantastic day.
