It was a great afternoon...

It was a great afternoon Graeme the driver was polite and knowledgeable about the area. The distillery was a really good option to compliment the two wineries we visited

Thoroughly impressed. Fantastic memory. High-quality fun.

Highly recommend. This was absolutely one of the highlights of our trip. Wine, cheese, chocolate and spirits all combined with good weather, informative vendors and an enthusiastic tour guide. Cannot rate this experience more highly. Still talking about it months later. Did not feel rushed with great minibus pick-up/drop-off service, and an impressive range of outlets visited.

Great experience!

We had Kristy as our driver and she was very lovely. We had the trip all to ourselves but Kristy made sure we still did everything on the tour and the selection of wineries were great. We also took lots of photos and really enjoyed the tour.

Perfect pairing!

Published on Jan, 2025

Such a fantastic tour. Would absolutely recommend for everyone. Really friendly and extremely knowledgeable team. Lovely to experience both cheese and chocolate pairing. A wonderful few hours in HV.
