Great Wine Tour

Published on Jan, 2025

This wine tour exceeded our expectations. Johann was an excellent guide and we were able to fit in a few extra stops. My daughter is Vegan and I was concerned that they wouldn’t be able to accommodate us. However, Lesley assured me that they could. Each of the wineries were alerted prior to our arrival and they couldn’t have been any more accommodating. Additionally, the lunch provided was delicious for the vegan AND for the non- vegans. A great day in the Santa Ynez Valley was had by all!!

Amazing Tour & Wines

Published on Dec, 2024

A good time was had! Booked this wine tour to celebrate my mother’s 66th birthday and she really enjoyed it. We stopped at three popular vineyards all of which had awesome hosts. The white and red wines were tasted were delicious. The Vermentino was my favorite. I purchased a bottle. Our tour guide, Yohan, was amazing and a safe driver. Our tour had five guests which was perfect. Everyone was friendly and sociable the entire 6 hours of the tour. Yohan got us to each destination with no issues and was engaging during the ride. I also did the Malibu Wine & Safari Tour back in 2018 but this one was better. Definitely worth it.

Exceptional day of wine tasting and touring.

Johannes was an incredible tour host. He is knowledgeable and entertaining. We felt very well taken care of and his recommendations were exceptional. I will definitely do this tour again and specifically request Johnannes.

A lovely day of wine tasting

Wisely leaving the wine-tasting driving to the professionals, we thoroughly enjoyed our tour through the vineyards.
