We booked this tour not knowing what to expect. Scott arrived at our hotel on time, and right off the bat he wanted to know what we were looking for from the tour - do we like red wine, white wine, etc.?. To our surprise, the bus was limo-style with comfortable seats, cup holders and a tabletop which would later... more

My husband and I just returned from Napa where we enjoyed a wonderful day with Shawnda and Platypus tours. We weren't sure what to expect but were very pleasantly surprised. Although she had some idea about one or two specific places she wanted us to visit Shawnda asked our opinion and preferences about what type of wine we wanted to... more

Our driver(Shownda) was so much fun and very knowledgable. Took us to very different wineries with some great wine to taste at each. Had a great time, would highly recommend Platypus to other Napa tourists looking for a tour. more

Scott, our tour guide was just wonderful. He was very knowledgeable and the wineries we visited were just perfect. He really made a difference to our experience. They were small wineries but more personal. My sister and I personally enjoyed the Tudal Winery and the Greaser Winery. We would go back and do it just the same way! Thanks for... more

Loved our all day wine tour! Rod, our tour guide, was so much fun and very knowledgeable! We hit some of the smaller vineyards, which is something my husband and I really enjoy. After this trip we definitely have a better understanding of wine and all that goes into it! Also enjoyed the lunch - delicious and to have it... more

Scott -- the most FAB Platypus tour guide -- ROCKED! For the less snooty Napa wino ... this bus with total strangers is so much fun! The groups starts out all serious and quiet -- but by the end of the day, everyone's shouting and meeting up at the BAR! more

We completely enjoyed our wine tour with the Platypus Tour Company. Shawnda, our tour guide, was out of this world! She tailored the entire experience to our preferences, and was spot on with every choice. She was also hilariously funny, and really brought our group together to enjoy the tour. We highly recommend Platypus! more

For $100 you can't beat a driven bus tour of select wineries in napa. We were provided with a cheese/nut/fruit/cracker platter, all the water you wanted, and delicious/healthy lunch at one of the winery sites. Our guide was knowledgable in his own right and very helpful! He was great about grabbing the wines that we had selected and storing them... more

My boyfriend and I took this tour in early October, based on the great reviews on TripAdvisor. We were NOT disappointed! The booking process was easy and the staff was helpful with directions. Shawnda was our driver/tour guide and she really knew the valley and some great, off the beaten path wineries for us to visit. Additionally, we were looking... more

This is the best way to see and taste the small, little wineries, and get a personal visit like a local! Each of the tasting rooms greeted us as if we were their best friends, as we were clearly with one of theirs by having Valerie with us. The next day we spent time visiting tasting rooms on our own,... more
