He looked after all the guests and made the bus time fun. An extra half hour at Hubert’s Estate to enjoy lunch and do the cellar door would be good. Lunch felt a little rushed and it would have be nice to have a little more time at this beautiful winery.”

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 488 reviews · from $129

“This is a wine tour for a younger crowd or inexperienced wine tasters. You don’t get a ‘tour guide’ you get a driver basically. More interested in sitting in the bus and watching his Netflix. Communication between your group and venues was very poor, as a group we found ourselves sorting many things ourselves. The brewery’s disappointing.”
