Steve was awesome at helping us plan a last minute wine tour in NOTL. His help and relationships in planning our custom tour was instrumental in the success of our day (at the time the Covid restrictions were changing weekly). Harold was with us too taking photographs which was awesome to document our day and our time together. We will definitely use them for future trips to the area and would highly recommend them. They think of everything and have such great, personal touch’s!
