“We booked a day long tour and it was excellent. Rodney and Helen’s depth of knowledge, attention to detail, network of local contacts and passion for the ACT and surrounds wine region was clear, and made our experience richer and more rewarding. The tour was tailored to our needs, flexible and relaxed. Communication was fast, responsive and very thorough with every detail considered and thought through – right up to the glass of champagne in the car in the morning.
