We called 7 hours before our tour and the pushed it to the next day without any hassle. We were thrilled! The tour itself was amazing. Know that you mostly taste white wine (in case you don't like it). We met 2 groups of people on our tour who were great in their own ways. Overall, I totally recommend booking with this company. You can't beat the price or the service!”
