“Wir standen um 21:00 Uhr pünktlich am Treffpunkt, nur leider ist niemand gekommen. Als ich angerufen hatte, wurde mir - als ob der Veranstalter schon wusste, worum es geht - sofort mit einer übertrieben freundlichen Entschuldigung mitgeteilt, dass die Tour nachmittags um 14:00 Uhr abgesagt wurde, aber ich keine Bestätigung dafür bekommen habe. Absolut unprofessionell! Die übertriebene Freundlichkeit des Mannes am Telefon sowie das sofortige Angebot über eine Rückerstattung sowie 100€ zusätzlich weckten in mir das Gefühl, dass dies nicht zum ersten Mal passiert ist.”

Our guide was very knowledgeable and was easy to understand. It was an intimate setting, with locals also enjoying wine alongside of us. Felt like a great cultural experience. Would highly recommend.”
