Annette was hilarious and... - Annette was hilarious and very knowledgeable about the vineyards we went to. She made sure let us know about everything the wineries had to offer and the best course or action to get everything done before we had to return to the bus.

Summer in a Glass Experience - The experience was worth the while ! Annette who was our driver and guide was so energetic bubbly and fun made our trip fun and entertaining. Both vineyards were stunning and the food was okay honestly. It was slightly cold but the warm sunny keep my running. Definitely would do it again with my partner but hopefully in the summer

Relax & Enjoy! - The Annette made the trip go quickly with her info. We loved the North Georgia countryside! Our views of the land was exceptional! We brought along cheese, fruit & charcuterie so we didn’t try the food trucks. It was a great excursion! Thanks Annette!!

This was such an amazing experience - "The real treasure were the friends you made along the way" lol. I've absolutely loved the experience. And having fun with strangers made the experience that much more fun.

would recommend with reservations - visited 2 different wineries about 5-10 minutes away from each other. the tastings are included with the tour but don’t bank on the tastings getting you tipsy. i think saving the money and making the drive is a better use of the money because tastings at both locations were around $20 each and unless you plan on spending extra money on more wine, you should be fine to drive back by yourself. however, excellent customer service on behalf of the tour company. our original tour (full day) was cancelled due to an issue with the bus, and they suggested the half day (this review) & i got my refund with no fuss!

Did not like the service. - The experience was below average. Our bus driver Annette was bossy and treated us like children. She played outdated music of the same songs multiple times. The wineries were fine but our tour guide was not the best

Disorganized & disappointing - The driver was nice and friendly, but this wasn’t very well organized or worth the cost. It was also more of “tastings” than tours. My group had a lot of amazing women that made this a very fun day trip, despite the logistics. I don’t want to go into too much detail because I don’t want to get anyone in trouble if this was a one-off situation… I was disappointed because the reviews were promising

Partybus to the vineyards - Seven young girls in our bus were celebrating a birthday. Encouraged by the driver they partied all the way to the vineyards and most of the way back. Loud singning conducted from the drivers seat by a waving right arm and raised volume on the entertainment system. The party of four sitting next to us attempted to take an Uber for the return to Atlanta but were unable to get one. At one occasion the driver was simultaneously operating microphone, steeringwheel and cellphone, constantly exceeding the speedlimit.
The visits to the vineyards were nice but there was no information about wines, grapes, vinification etc. This was a partybus lacking all interest in the manufacture and culture of wine.
