LOVED this tour! We have done many wine tours over the years, but never had such a fun, friendly, and knowledgeable guide! Betty, a winemaker with experience running and working in wineries around the world, took us to large, medium, and small wineries, each with unique products and local significance. She spent the day offering insight and answering our questions on the wineries, the wines, the region, and Greek culture in general, keeping us informed and entertained from start to finish! Could not have asked for a better tour!

This was simply the best wine/food tour I've taken anywhere in the world. Betty Vervainioti is a friendly, easy-going, extremely knowledgeable guide. She has worked in Napa Valley, so her English is excellent. We chatted about culture, our lives, travel...and, of course, Greek food and wine! What made the tour so exceptional for me is that we were able to linger at each stop and chat with the proprietors or guides about Greek life. It was an unhurried day that filled both my belly and my soul. Another note: Stefano was very communicative and welcoming. He went out of his way to adjust the tour for us at the last minute when my traveling companion and I realized we had a schedule conflict. Stefano worked after hours the night before our tour to readjust and ensure we had a memorable experience. Thank you both for making our trip to Greece so special.

Betty arrived to pick us up from our hotel right on time, we were 2 couples. As soon as we got in to the car, we knew that we were going to have a great day. Betty is so knowledgeable, she knew so much about the varietals from around the world and also the local wines. She was a wine maker herself. She was professional, lovely, fun to be with, and she couldn't do enough for us. We went to 3 wineries in the Nemea region - all completely different. We had a light lunch at one. In the last winery, they gave us some accompaniments to the wine tasting and I loved these crackers that were a cross between a cracker and a pastry. They were so delicious. On the way back to our hotel, Betty stopped at a local bakery for me to grab some more! She is a complete delight, and professional all the way. Do not hesitate to do a wine tour with Greece by the Glass - and be sure to ask for Betty. She made our day!! Thank you, Betty!!

My tour guide was Betty (we laughed that we had the same name!) and she was a vintner and oenologist. Very knowledgeable and super fun to hang out with for the day! On the drive from Nafplio to Nemea, she told me about the history of wine in Greece and some of the ups and downs over the centuries. The three wineries we visited all had excellent guides that explained their methods and wine offerings. Plus, there were plenty of snacks and a light lunch at the second winery. Greek Betty made the experience very enjoyable and personable throughout the tour. My only regret: not bringing a suitcase to load with bottles and placing in checked baggage for the flight home. Seriously. The bottle prices at the wineries were great. I’ve been trying to locate some of these in my area of Southern California and they are triple the price. Take the tour and buy some bottles while you’re there! 10/10 recommend!
