Reviewed By Y2192YWheidis - Lennox Head, Australia

So much fun! Glen picked us up from our accommodation and took us to collect our bikes. We set off around 10.30am and returned around 4pm. We thought at the beginning that it would not be enough time but it was perfect. We squeezed in 3 wineries and a brewery for lunch all recommended and timed perfectly by Pip. It even allowed us time to stop for coffee and chocky at Cocoa Nib. The wine collection service is also a bonus saving you from carrying your wine around all day and it getting hot. Fun and relaxing experience.
