I went on the winery tour with Uncorked last weekend for my future sister in-law's bachlorette…read more This tour was the highlight of our trip and our driver/tour guide Steve was a big factor in this! He went above and beyond ensuring we had a great trip. He was hilarious and we enjoyed getting to know him. The tour itself was also amazing. We went to five very different wineries, each with their own vibe which allowed us to get a full experience. I think we all agree we would love to do the tour again and would especially ask for Steve!

Unfortunately, I must leave a low rating because wheelchair accessibility was very poor…read more The guide was exceptional and so apologetic. But, this was a teaching moment for her as this was her first time locking in and securing a wheelchair properly on the shuttle. For some of the trips between wineries, I had to hang-on to my seatbelt that was attached to the floor in order to avoid tipping over in my chair. The first trip, I had to have my partner ( who has a very bad back) bend over and hang on-to the rigid frame chair to prevent me from falling forward or backwards. The bus ride was very, very, hot due to the air conditioning vent being at the back of the bus avoiding the designated wheelchair spot altogether. Overheating with a spinal cord injury can require emergency medical assistance because people cannot regulate their temperature. All of these issues should must be rectified as soon as possible especially as you are advertising as a wheelchair accessible shuttle service. Drivers should, at the very least, have practical experience, and extensive training for assisting people with disabilities in a wheelchair...and for this reason only, my review is a 2 out of 5 stars. This is unfortunate because everything else about the tour was exceptional, and all of the wineries had accessible ramps and washrooms. The Okanagan Wine region definitely does not disappoint! I just wish I could have relaxed on the excursion and felt comfortable and safe. Regretfully, Derek Moxam

Highly recommend! (Victoria to Cowichan Valley) Vivid Tours…read morearranged a wonderful wine tour around Cowichan Valley yesterday. The wineries had fantastic tastings, very welcoming and beautiful. We were on a schedule to ensure we could get to all 4 wineries and out for lunch, but never felt rushed. What really made the day (other than 10 friends getting together) was our fabulous driver, Lee. He has a great way with his passengers and wants everyone to have the best experience. He says he loves his job, and it shows. Thank you Vivid, Lee, Averill Creek, Blue Grouse, Cobble Hill and Enrico wineries.

He answered all my questions and definitely appreciated our business. No Vax pass required now that the mandate has dropped. AJ our tour guide called me the day of to touch base and remind me of where and when we would be picked up at our hotel. An was right on time. We were a group of 4 with my 80yr old father joining us. Not only did AJ open and close the van doors, he made sure that my father got in and out of the van safely and securely. I really appreciated the extra care. We visited 4 wineries - The Hatch was by far our favourite. AJ carried our bought wine, carried them back to the van and even was our photographer! At the end of the tour AJ dropped us at a restaurant that was on our way back to the hotel and then offered to deliver our wine back to our hotel. Definitely above and beyond! Thank you AJ and wicked wine tours. You will definitely be our next choice the next time we are in town. Highly recommend!

She was natural a new her stuff so well that I actually asked her if she dreams in it. Visit the TP, taste the wines, try their spirits as well. The gin is quite fantastical.

If you're visiting from California the wines leave a lot to be desired. I'm giving 3 stars because…read morethe wine makers in Kelowna can't help the fact that their climate isn't ideal. We received 4 or 5 tastings. We didn't purchase any bottles. The staff was friendly and they have a great view off the back patio. Some things to know about Kelowna wine tasting in general. All tastings throughout Kelowna are very small and once you do find a wine you actually like, they don't allow revisiting. Also, don't expect to receive tastings of anything other than what is strictly on the menu. Even if you are interested in a particular bottle and would like to try it, you most likely won't get to taste it. Another thing to note, don't expect wine tasting to be an "experience." Everywhere flys through the tastings. The experience showed me how grateful I am living in California and just a couple hours from Paso Robles.

He was incredibly attentive, communicative, and made sure everything ran smoothly from start to finish. The entire day went flawlessly, and we never had to worry about a thing.

Highly recommend Bare Wine Tours, and if you get Dave as your guide, you're in great hands!

We…read moreactually were able to fit in 6 different wineries and we went on a Tuesday so thankfully they weren't too busy. They pick you up at your door and drive you home so you're able to just sit back and relax without the worry of driving. It is reasonably priced as well! I think my favourite will always be the classic Sumac Ridge. But we did try an organic winery as well called Sage Hills which was great too! I would definitely recommend Merlin and Bare tours to others!

WHAT AN AWESOME TIME!…read more Our friend booked this (party for six) and the bus picked us up from our resort (Playa Del Sol) at 10:45am. We proceeded to pick up another group of nine girls for a stagette party from another resort. Caleb was our driver and not only was he SUPER friendly, he was EXTREMELY informative and made great recommendations (Hello? We brought home six bottles of ice wine!) on wine (especially what was available in local liquor stores or not). We stopped at three wineries: Rollingdale, Indigenious, and Quail's Gate. We then dropped the stag party off at the boat while we went to Kalala Winery to try their 2016 Award Winning Icewine (luckily they had some in stock for us to take home!). We then drove down to the docks and switched places with the stag party and hopped on the boat with 'Nice-To-Look-At-Nick' for a stroll down the lake for a nice dip. It was really refreshing after a long day of wine tasting. Life vests were provided for us non-strong (read here: drunk) swimmers that wanted to jump in but didn't trust our alcoholic instincts. The water was fantastic! Nick was a great host as well. We arrived back at our hotel around 5:45pm so a full day! This was a great trip. I enjoyed, not only the wine tasting, but everything I learned from Caleb, a superb guide and our boat ride and swim with easy-going Nick. Very hospitable and such a great time! Highly recommended!
