Dave runs a very professional and knowledgeable wine tour of the Petoskey Wine Area. He knows the…read moregrapes and wine makers and can talk in depth about the area. You will be transported through four or more wineries and get to interact on many levels. A couple wineries that stood out to me were Walloon Lake Winery and Petoskey Farms Wineries so be sure to ask to go there as the wines were really good and the people who make the wine were very accessible. Lunch is a part of the tour and Dave serves it at one of the wineries so you can enjoy a glass with lunch looking at breathtaking views. I couldn't imagine doing this tour and tasting so much wine on my own. Having a professional wine guide ensures that you can safely enjoy the wines without worrying about driving yourself! The price is affordable and the educational experience is worth it! I learned a lot of great info from Dave.

Dave was very good at responding via email and keeping in touch. When he arrived to pick us up we were all pleasantly surprised. Dave was punctual and was friendly the moment he came out of vehicle to greet us. His vehicle was very clean and comfortable. Dave made it great fun for all. It is worth doing tour that includes lunch. May I recommend the Ruben Sandwich. It was delicious. You will not be disappointed. Sasha

We received a goodie bag with a granola bar, trail mix, and a bottle of water and there was also cold meat/cheeses and a veggie tray to eat if we wanted them (we ended up getting lunch at one of the wineries, so cannot comment on the cold snacks, but the granola bar was tasty). The tour was well paced with 45 minutes to do a wine tasting at each winery. You could tell there was a lot of thought put into the order of the wineries, as the most educational was first and the most relaxing/best views was last. Also, one of the wineries we visited offered lunch and that came at just the right time as it had been a while since breakfast. Our driver, Jeff, was very personable and was able to give information on the different wineries and what they offered. The van seats up to 9, so you could rent it for a small group or drop in on a mixed tour (which is what we did). He picked us up and dropped us off at our hotel, so we didn't have to worry about driving (which is good, because when you do four wine tastings in four hours, you drink quite a lot!).

However, the energy on the deck coming from the waitresses felt less than relaxing. I completely understand a rush, but there were only a few people seated and it felt like the waitresses were so stressed and anxious, running around with iPads and coming up to talk to us in exasperated voices. Once again, I completely understand how stressful this job is but it ended up making me feel more stressed along with them, than relaxed having a nice glass of wine.
