Overall, I was very satisfied. The guide took charge of both driving and explaining. He was amazing for continuously explaining while driving. We visited three wineries. The first one was Madonna, which was a small place and the explanation was short, but the two places we visited after that (Sutter Home, Napa Cellars) had a lot of explanations and tasting options. Sutter Home in particular had the most tasting options with 5 types of wine and had a lot of souvenirs, so if you're going to buy a gift, I highly recommend buying it here! In particular, they sell various types of wine in small bottles as souvenirs, and since one bottle costs less than 2 dollars, it's good to buy them lightly as gifts. I've always wanted to visit a winery, so I think I had a great experience.

This was a great way to explore the different regions of Napa and go to lesser known wineries. The guide, Stephen, was funny, personable and a wealth of knowledge. The only negative was the van's seating arrangement. The seat wrapped around the inside in a U-shape meaning we had to sit and face other people. It was a bit awkward, and a tad cramped with 12 people (6 couples). But overall, I highly recommend this activity, and it was worth the price.

I was privileged enough to be the only person on the tour. Despite that, the tour commenced. Grady was an absolute lovely guide! He was knowledgeable about the history and trivia of the area. He made the tour so much fun. The wineries had very friendly guides, who gave good context on the grape varieties. Definitely recommend if you’re a solo or couple traveler.
