It’s a one way journey, no going back if you missed a stop. No signs to mark where bus stops are… You can only visit max 6 wineries because that’s all the time allowed. It’s waste of money to get full day pass since most wineries and restaurants are not open and the bus doesn’t stop at half of them until the afternoon. There is only one bus that runs per day, so, no choice but wait 45 mins to 1 hour. if you want to leave early, you are out of luck. I had to wait longer because the bus didn’t stop at the stop when it was supposed to.

Skip the hassle of driving and instead enjoy the wine. Super cost effective and a great experience - we looked at taking an uber to one winery to & from and it was more than this tour. Honestly - worth every penny.

Called to change date and couldn't. That was fine... but the calls the day of asking when I was going to show up? I already called and couldn't rebook. Why bother me when I already let you all know this no longer fit my schedule.
