Kenny was a great guide. Enjoyed visiting some smaller wineries and getting to visit with the owners. We've visited Napa and Sonoma Valleys several times previously, this is the first time we've taken a tour. We were able to experience some things we have not done in the past. This was certainly well worth the time and money. I would... more

So this was our first time coming to Sonoma and we were celebrating our Anniversary as well. I have a friend who lives in Napa and she recommened me to a different tour place, which I wont mention. From the first phone call I could tell this would not be the right tour place for us. I love love love... more

We had a wonderful day on our tour of Sonoma. Ken was extremely knowledgeable, and based our tour to what types of wines we enjoyed. I loved that we had a small group, my husband and I and one other couple. We visited some fantastic small family wineries and got to meet and talk to some really nice winemakers. Ken... more

After having to reschedule our trip three times, we were so happy the morning that Ken picked us up and took us on a grand tour of the Alexander Valley, Russian River and Dry Creek areas.

My friends and I (4 total) booked the Sonoma Platypus tour and Ken was our tour guide. As soon as we met Ken we knew it was going to be a fun day. Ken was so interesting and knew so much about Sonoma. He made sure to give us special attention and really listen to what we wanted to do.... more

We had a wonderful rainy day with Ken and Platypus tours. We visited Sonoma during a very quiet weekend, so it was just the two of us and Ken. He took us to several out of the way places that we would not have seen or even heard of otherwise. He was friendly and knowledgable without being pushy or obtrusive.... more

A different experience than our Napa tour two days earlier. Ken was a great host and tour guide. He knows the area very well. It was a long day but in the end an experience that we will not soon forget. Thanks Ken and Platypus. more

Discovering Sonoma Country through Platypus Tours was a truly unique and memorable experience. Ken, our tour guide, was not only knowledgeable of the area and the wines, but personable and attentive. He was able to take us to boutique wineries that were suited to our tastes as he asked us what we liked, or disliked, about the wines from the... more

It was great hearing stories and facts from a tour guide that is from the area. We had fun from the beginning to the end. The smaller wineries we went to are far better than the tourist traps everyone else goes to. more

My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed our Platypus Tour of Sonoma! The tour bus picked us up at our hotel and the whole day was just great. Ken was a wealth of knowledge about the area, and he tailored the tour to the wants of the five couples in his care for the day. He made a scrumptious lunch, had... more
