Excellent tour of less commercial wineries that are somewhat off the beaten path! Our tour guide and driver, Dave, was outstanding, both on a personal level and professionally with his knowledge of wine, wine making, and history of the region. We would definitely take their tour again and recommend it to others. more

I just want to comment on what a great time I had on the Platypus Wine Tour. Our guide was absolutely brilliant. He'd been over backwards to make sure everyone was satisfied. I'd recommend this tour to anyone! Give it a go, you won't be disappointed. Enjoy! more

We had a great day on the Platypus tour. Our guide Wendy was very friendly and helpful. Picked up direct from our hotel in a small bus so we were only a group of 8 which meant we could get to know our fellow travellers well. We visited 5 wineries and had a cheese platter on board and a really... more

The whole day was great - we were picked up from our hotel in a comfortable limo-van, taken to 4 great local wineries, provided with a simple picnic lunch overlooking the vineyards, and given an insight into winemaking from our knowlegable guide (Dave). Playtpus only visit smaller, often family-run wineries, but this is exactly what we were looking for (as... more

The tour took us to 4 different wineries...all of which were very small and off the beaten path. The lunch we got was OK...a sandwich and some wierd pasta. I was expecting going to more wineries I have heard of. All of the ones we went to had NO other vistors, which made me think that people don't come to... more

This was a great experience. Our driver was really knowledgeable about wines and the local, boutique wineries. We avoided the big, commercialized wineries. We had a great time and didn't need to worry about drinking and driving. Highly recommended. more

This was fantastic. Our guide Rod was great - very friendly and knowledgeable. We went to 5 wineries, including a champagne house. Rod asked us what we liked and tailored the tour accordingly. We had a barrel tasting with a fabulous winemaker called Chris, who taught us a lot. Highlight was a visit to the fabulously mellow Dan. There was... more

I booked a tour for my husband and I for our honeymoon. It was wonderful! We got to go to 4 different family run wineries and then everyone on the tour wanted to go Domaine Chandon for some sparkling wine so we went there too. The driver Webb was great. He told us about places to eat and facts about... more
