Thoroughly enjoyed our tour today. Our guide, Frank was absolutely wonderful and made sure we enjoyed our experience from start to finish. Very professional tour and an enjoyable day. Would absolutely recommend.

Frank was amazing guide!! Or Rod? We think it was actually Rod Stewart in disguise. He pretended he didn’t know Maggie May tho. 😂 Great times!!! Great Memories!! 🤩

Wonderful all day wine tour May 4, 2023 Wineries were very good. Frank was our tour guide. He was AWESOME!! Very knowledgeable and made the day so fun!! Highly recommend this company and tour!

This was our second full day tour with lunch and we loved it. Niagara Vintage Wine Tours is lovely and our guide, Chris, was great and so knowledgeable. Would highly recommend Niagara Vintage Wine Tours for a day of great wine and experiences.

A Lovely Day Out in NOTL We went of the full day tour, with lunch. Sue was the best driver/tour guide, very knowledgeable about the region. The wineries were all very welcoming and each offered it's own unique tasting experience. Lunch at Zee's grill was very nice, a lovely day out - would recommend.

He knows a lot about wine and was happy to share. The tour itself was great, too! I've done quite a few wine tours, and I'd never been to these wineries. Each winery was very different from the next, so there was something for everyone, and each winery had a great selection, too. Picked up a few more bottles of wine than I intended. Would totally do it again. read less

Andre was our tour guide and he was super friendly and knowledgeable. My only suggestion would be to have the charcuterie stop as the final visit rather than the first. We were warned to have a big breakfast and we did. So we weren’t quite ready to eat again so soon but eat we did and it was delicious! However, we were very hungry toward the end. We would definitely recommend this tour and will most certainly do it again.
Thanks for a great day!! read less

A great tour!!! Our guide, Frank was amazing and educated us about wine. His knowledge was appreciated and his humour made it even more enjoyable. I would recommend this tour to anyone who comes to NOTL

We had the most amazing tour on Sunday. Our guide Frank aka ‘Rod Stewart’ provided us with an entertaining, relaxed, humorous and educational experience. He clearly loves what he does which makes the day extremely enjoyable. We hope to return and enjoy another day with ‘Rod’. Thanks for the memories.

We had Frank as a tour guide! He was spectacular, and we had a blast with him! He was super personable and taught us a lot about wine throughout the tour. We could definitely recommend Frank as a tour guide to anyone else trying to tour the Niagara wineries!

Got super lucky by accident and it was just two of us for the entire day! Vans were very clean and our driver Michael was friendly and gave us all the time we wanted at the wineries because it was only my mom and I. Would book again!

All we can say is…WOW!! Frank was super knowledgeable, engaging, and attentive to all of our needs. He went above and beyond to deliver first-class service and ensure an elite experience (all during a snow storm!!!). We visited the first winery (Calamus) to be greeted by the kindest staff, had an *amazing* lunch at Good Earth, and ended the day with a visit to three more wineries (Angel Gate, Kacaba, and Pilliteri’s), with each one being better than the last. We seriously had no idea these hidden gems existed in the Bench winery region. Thank you, Frank, for an unforgettable experience and for making our anniversary/birthday so special. We can’t wait to book another tour next time we visit the Niagara area!!! read less

We took the all day tour and ABSOLUTELY loved it. Our tour guide Frank was the best!! He was very knowledgeable, and made the day FUN!!! The wineries were very good! Highly recommend this tour and HIGHLY recommend Frank!!!!

Andre was our chauffeur/tour guide and he was fantastic! 100%! Andre was friendly, knowledgeable and engaged the group in a fun way! We loved that we were picked up and dropped off right at the door of our hotel. The limo bus was gorgeous, clean and comfortable. Andre was definitely a staple to our wine tour experience! He was awesome!! He is certainly in his element and it’s evident he enjoys what he does. Visiting the different wineries was such a cool experience! Each winery had a little bit of a different experience to offer and had unique elements to it so you didn’t feel like you’re repeating the experience. The wineries were beautiful! Learning about their history certainly enriched the experience! The fun facts shared and science behind wine making was very intriguing and we walked away having learned a little more from each winery! The staff were all super friendly and great to interact with! The wine tasting was fun, delicious and helped understand how to properly pair wines to enhance the wine drinking experience. We purchased a different bottle of wine at each location from the taste testing. Absolute A++ rating from us! A MUST TRY! read less

Excellent Wine Tour Andre was an excellent tour guide and driver. The limo-style bus was immaculate and had leather seating! We toured Pilliteri Winery, Between the Lines, and Palatine. Pilliteri was excellent!

Overall 10/10 and we will be back!

I have done tours in many different countries and yet the best tour guide I've ever had was an hour from home. Not only was Dwight knowledgeable of the area and all the wines he was also extremely personable and helped the day become that much better. The company was amazing to work/plan with for a very special proposal and it went perfectly for myself and my new fiancée. I can't thank Dwight and Valeria enough and would highly recommend them to anyone looking for an awesome day in Niagara-on-the-Lake! read less

Our guide, Sue A, not only drove us around the beautiful landscape of the region, but also taught us so much about the area as well as interesting details with respect to the vineyards and winemaking process. She accompanied us in to every winery to ensure we were well taken care of during the visits. As far as wineries, our experience at Ferox was lacklustre, but we are already looking forward to revisiting Colaneri and Chateau des Charmes where the friendly sommeliers were knowledgeable and personalized our sessions. Thank you again Sue for making our day one we will always cherish. read less

The bonus was that he looks like a cross between Barry Manilow and Rod Stewart - shared some good laughs about that one! Thanks so much, Frank - you made our day a great one!! read less

We had the private tour with a total of 6 people and travelling in a spacious Mercedes SUV: so it was easy to listen in and learn about the wine from our amazing wine sommelier/tour guide, Christopher.

Christopher in his quietly pleasant demeanour shared his deep love and knowledge on wines: the history of the NOTL region, the geography, how to taste wine, how to pick out the notes while tasting the wines, the wine business, the places where you can do courses on wine (Chris recommended that as a starter, I can look into the “Wine 101” section of Wine Folly website), etc.

Chris also took us to 4 great wineries and I appreciated that we didn’t do the regular big wineries which we all know of, so it gave a very intimate experience and where we learned a lot.

We did the following on our tour:

Pilliteris Winery: a large winery with 1million bottles and we got a full tour of the facilities and behind the scenes.

Reif Estates: a medium sized winery and one of the oldest wineries in the Niagara on the Lake region & still run by the Reif family.

Hare Co: more recent winery and considered a boutique winery. It looked like something out of Tuscany in Italy and the tastings was set up a on family style table.

Between the Lines: a small boutique winery and their set-up is within a barn. We did blind tastings of 4 wines, including the sparkling wine. Also got to walk around the fields during a glorious winter sunset.

And had a 3 course lunch at Zees Grill. read less

We booked the full day tour and Sue called me 20mins before she arrived to pick us up at our hotel. She is lovely! So knowledgeable about the area, history and places we visited! Niagara College was a real treat to start off our day. Very friendly, welcoming and enthusiastic about their work! We then visited Silversmith brewery, quaint but staff didn’t really interact with us, just gave us our samples and left us alone. Once we were heading to our next stop, Sue gave us snacks for the car ride, sweet & salty on our way to lunch. Such a thoughtful gesture! We enjoyed a 3 course lunch that was delicious, more food than we expected and everything was included in our package, even gratuities. Spirits in Niagara was our next stop and we were very impressed with Casey, who gave us a tour and tastings. She was so incredibly passionate about their work and explained things so well! Pilliteri was our last stop and Angelo was a gem! I’m impressed by the sustainable farming way of life and these companies use it! The passion and love of the craft was evident! We were impressed with Sue, the attention to detail, quality of time at each stop. I would definitely recommend this company! They will design a tour to suit your wants! Excellent job! Thanks again Sue! Cheers!
