We liked the small group. our driver, Phil, was excellent. He was very personable, remembered names, and made personal contact with each couple in addition to the group as a whole. He allowed us the opportunity to look for koala and we found one. I will never forget that! The lunch was amazing! We loved the wineries. The shopping time in the village was okay, but didn't enhance the trip for us. We enjoyed walking about and settled in to have a light snack. But that is us, others may have liked it more. All-in-all, we had a great day and will absolutely recommend it to others heading to this area.

Fantastic day. Guide was phenomenal, very knowledgable and went out of his way to be helpful. Great choice of wineries to take us - contrast between large scale Jacobs Creek and small family owned Lamberts was interesting - and both wineries gave excellent tastings. The 3 course lunch at Lamberts winery was outstanding, not to be missed.

The ease of booking was brilliant! Regular communication and reminders were outstanding!!! Pricing was fabulous and great value. My grandson and his friend had a thoroughly enjoyable trip. Staff could not have been more pleasant, friendly or professional. Well done everyone!! Keep up the fantastic work. Definitely recommend.
