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

Fabulous wine tour Sonoma! Fabulous wine, tasting experience, five stars out of five, friendly and knowledgeable host, wonderful people who join the tour we all got on. We met the winemakers. We sat down and had a sandwich lunch in a vineyard. I thought it was a wonderful experience. I would highly recommend it. Oh and the wine was really good as well.

Fantastic wines This was my third tour in about 15 years with Platypus Tours and it did not disappoint. Our guide, Steve, took us to 3 fantastic small wineries and was so knowledgeable about everything that Napa has to offer. The whole day was relaxed and well paced with a great lunch and lots of good recommendations for other things to do in the area. We were afforded special tasting rates at all the wineries and I felt the whole package was great value and an incredible experience.

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.

Platypus is always the best! Luis did a fantastic job of picking wineries, especially with having to pick a substitute when one had to bow out. He was always helpful and a fount of information. We've done Napa and Sonoma now with Platypus and had a great time both tours. Highly recommended!
