"Birthday Wine Tour!"

Kelly was a great guide, she was very knowledgeable. She hung a banner for the Birthday guest.
I would definitely use Platypus again!!

"An Unforgettable Wine Country Experience!"

We had such an amazing time on our North Sonoma tour! Gary was absolutely fantastic—he really listened to what we were looking for and put together the perfect lineup of tastings. Each stop felt thoughtfully chosen, and his knowledge of the region, wineries, and wines made the experience even better.

Beyond that, the level of care he put into everything was incredible. From making sure none of us got car sick on the drive (huge win!), to snapping great photos for us, and even providing lunches that met our dietary needs—every detail was handled with such thoughtfulness.

Everything was smooth, fun, and well-organized. We felt totally taken care of and learned a ton along the way. Gary’s passion for what he does really shines through, and we’re so grateful for the experience.

We’re super happy customers and will definitely be back for another tour. Thanks again, Gary!

"Napa and Sonoma tours "

Both the Napa and Sonoma tours were great. The guides were professional and knowledgeable. We loved each boutique winery where each provided a wonderful welcome, a tour of the winery along with a brief historical overview and a wine tasting. It was an amazing day.

"Wow - It's the personal touch!"

From our first interaction with Don and Kathy as we booked the tour to the end, this was a 5 star experience. We loved our tour guide Gary Grossman's personal touches throughout the day. We were picked up at our hotel, greeted, and introduced to the rest of our small group (<10). Gary selected three vineyards. With each location, he checked in with us on what we wanted to know, shared tips, helped us with any shipping questions, and even "put up with our" requests for specific music for the ride home.

Bougetz Cellars & our host Tim were my favorite! Between Gary and our wine tours, we learned a lot about the history of Napa Valley, wine tasting 101, and had lots of fun while doing it. The small size of the tour group allowed us all to connect and laugh while experiencing Napa's vineyards.

Thanks Platypus for a great tour! Can't wait until our wine arrives from the vineyards.

"Great time in Sonoma with the best of friends"

Our guide Courtney was very pleasant and knowledgeable about Sonoma and the wine country. She took us to 3 wineries that were each special as well as the 2 wine makers we were able to meet.

"Great experience!"

It was an amazing tour! Army was very knowledgeable, he took us to beautiful wineries, and we saw a lot of the area!
We enjoyed the fact that the wineries were smaller and ones we couldn’t experience at home.
Would 100% rebook with this tour!
We also liked that they called and confirmed the reservation after we booked and in the morning to confirm the pick up.
The lunch was great, and the taco place at the end was really good!

"The driver was knowledgeable"

The driver was knowledgeable, kind, and great at keeping a conversation going.

"The tour guide"

The tour guide, Gary, was amazing. He made the trip very fun and knowledgeable

"This was soooo much fun"

This was soooo much fun! The length of the tour and the ease of everything made it that much better. I would definitely go again! Army was our tour guide and if you are in the mood for a laugh he’s your guy! Thanks for a memorable experience!

"The tour guide/driver"

The tour guide/driver, Army was exceptional! He was very funny/entertaining- a great guy! I was slightly disappointed with the bus. It was a bit old and it was leaking water inside.
