Great wine tour!
This tour was a highlight of our trip. Colin was an excellent host/guide/driver and a really nice guy! He was highly informative and kept the tour fun and lively. We visited 3 wineries, tasted many fantastic wines and visited a few quaint villages along the way. Colin also arranged a great lunch spot for us too. This is an excellent tour we highly recommend!

Delightful Guide, Informative Tour
Rafael was the perfect guide. He spoke flawless English which we appreciated and he made us feel relaxed and welcome to the city of Basel. His knowledge was wide, but also deep. He gave us so many interesting facts - not only about the town, but also about the country of Switzerland. We were grateful he closed the tour with restaurant recommendations close by. Highly recommend!
