The ONLY way to go wine tasting in Napa This was our 5th or 6th tour with Platypus! We keep coming back because it's easy, economical, and fun. They've picked out different, unique wineries each time. Also, each group of people we were paired with were friendly and fun!

Such an enjoyable day touring 3… Such an enjoyable day touring 3 wineries in the Napa Valley with our excellent guide, Army M. Great attention to detail, not rushed, met new friends and tasted wonderful wine. Side note: there will be tasting fees, unless you buy some wine (and fees are thus waived)! Highly recommend Platypus Tours!!!

3 boutique wineries We went to 3 smaller, boutique wineries with Platypus Tours. Sam, our driver/guide was very knowledgeable about the Sonoma region. The wineries were expecting us. Each winery had a slightly different presentation. The lunch was a tasty sandwich and they were able to accommodate a nut allergy. I would definitely recommend using Platypus tours.

Well organized Well organized, very pleasant and useful tour guide. We visited 3 wineries as advertised with 5 to 6 different wines for every winery. Mostly reds as expected, one of the winery accommodated a request to also taste a Sauvignon Blanc which I appreciated a lot. This was more a social experience than learning about each wine, a bit different from wine tasting I have done in Europe in that respect Overall we had a very good time

Great way to learn about wine. Steve was a great host. The transport was good. The wineries we went to were very good, and we were given a lot of attention by the hosts. Lunch was of an excellent quality and we ate in a lovely setting. The only negative was that we were first pick up, and it took an hour to pick up the other six guests, and an hour to drop them off after the last winery. Luckily Steve was informative and scenery interesting.
