I live in Mexico so when I vacation in the US, I try and do activities I cannot do where I live. And I love wine. My first visit to Seattle last week and in the course of my research I found that there were wine tours that stayed close to the city (our time was limited) so we booked... More

Don and Lenora were perfect hosts and tour guides. They did a great job of finding out about our preferences and then customizing a tour to our "likes". Very nice personal touch in all the tasting rooms. Don had either arranged private tastings or had called ahead. Everyone we met that day was friendly, accommodating, informative and some even entertaining.... More

Found Bon Vivant on Trip Advisor. Saw great reviews and it lived up to it. Got a call the day before to get feel for the types of wines and price points we were looking to see. Don then picked us up at the hotel, adjusted the schedule as we went along, as he learned our taste and got more... More

Michael did a wonderful job on this tour. There were a couple hiccups along the day, but he made a point to get our opinion about them. He was good about pointing out sites as we drove to the area we were going to see. It was my first time with the "tasting room" idea. I personally prefer actual vineyards[we... More

Thirteen ladies went on a wine tasting trip to Woodinville. Our coach arrived ahead of time, and Don was looking like a GQ model in his business attire. He was very friendly and helpful to all of us - had a Sharpie to write our names on our many purchases, carried the wine to the coach, stored it, and all... More

I joined a group of women friends for a birthday celebration doing the Woodinville wine tour with this company. We anticipated a fun day and we definitely got it! The wineries were ones we had not heard of before, and all were exceptional choices. Don, our driver and one of the owners of the company, was very knowledgeable about local... More

The personalized tour was far more interesting, fun, and delightful than I'd expected. I was given a "tour for two" as a Christmas present, and decided to take one of my best friends, who knows something about wine (and has a palate for the best). There were only four of us on the tour that day, and Michael treated all... More

My fiancé and I went on this tour over a long weekend in Seattle. We actually chose this tour on a whim, as another tour company we had scheduled with in the area had cancelled on us last minute.
