There isn’t anybody I would recommend more than the wonderful Gerry to host your Okanagan wine tour! A few of us in the wine industry head out for a day of ‘market research’ ;) and we were beyond impressed, our tour was perfectly curated with impeccable service! On top of how fun and easygoing Gerry is he is very knowledgeable, sharing info about the Okanagan wine region and the history of development, back stories of each winery we visited, viticulture, terroir, winemaking styles, etc (if you wanna get geeky he’s your man!) We absolutely loved getting to know Gerry from the other side of the tasting bar for a change! There is no doubt why he’s won the BC Tourism Customer Service Award because he is the boss (the WINE BOSS!) Can’t wait to book the next venture!!

I had to travel from Vancouver to Kelowna to receive some specialized cancer treatment and my wife accompanied me. Kelowna Concierge picked us up at the airport and delivered us to the Hyatt Place. Next morning, the limo picked me up at the hotel to go to the Cancer Centre. In the afternoon, the limo picked up my wife at the hotel and together they picked me up at the Cancer Centre. Next day, they picked us up at the hotel to go to the airport. Each time, the drivers were courteous and professional. They were always on time. The limos were clean and the drivers practiced strict safety protocols. This is especially important to me during Covid-19 and right after my cancer treatment. I highly recommend Kelowna Concierge and will use them again during my next trip to Kelowna.
