Friday arvo

The staff were all really kind and friendly. Bus came slightly late once but otherwise all on time as per the schedule. I think the email wasn't up to date as I think there were more that required bookings than said on confirmation email. Had one winery that never got back to me when I asked to book. But otherwise would definitely take this tour again
