Hi! We couldn't agree more! 😊 Army has a wonderful way of making guests laugh while creating an unforgettable day in wine country. I'll be sure he sees your kind words—they'll absolutely make his day. Cheers! Shawnda
Wonderful experience
Wonderful experience. This was our second tour and they made sure to skip the places we’d already been to. And that was 12 years ago. Nice mix of young and older people. Thank you Linda.

Platypus Wine Tour
Our guide/driver Army made our experience wonderful. From his vast knowledge of the area, to his humor and engaging conversation, we could not have asked for a better bus tour experience. We went to 3 family owned winery’s and learned something new at each one.

Wow-What a day!!
Wow - what a spectacular day we had! Gary was the most knowledgeable host, adding interesting notes to the tours and sharing information about wines and the region during the drives between wineries. He’s funny and informative!
The wineries he chose were interesting, beautiful and full of flavor!
This was our second tour with Platypus (first in 2016) and we will definitely be back for round 3 in the future.
Important details - We received an email upon confirmation and they were happy to accommodate dietary needs and were quick to respond. They helped us find a tour that allowed for easy pickup.
10/10 - highly recommend!!!!!

Amazing Sonoma Wine Tour
We had a great time on our tour. It was such a great time!! Chris, our guide, was excellent and a wealth of knowledge. He answered all our questions and ensured we had a great time. The wineries we stopped at were great and each offered a unique experience. The packed lunch was also very tasty.

If you're in Napa or Sonoma contact these guys.
We took 2 tours with Platypus. One in Napa and one in Sonoma. Both were really good, concentrating mainly on small family-run wineries. Both guides (Casey and Steve) were very knowledgeable and kept the whole group entertained throughout the day. It's a great way to visit 3 wineries and relax knowing they will drop you outside your hotel on the way home.

Hi Chris! Experiencing both Napa and Sonoma is a wonderful way to discover just how different—and equally special—they are. Thank you for trusting us with both adventures. I'll be sure Casey and Steve see your kind words. We hope to welcome you back to wine country again soon. Cheers! Shawnda
Army was the best tour guide
Army was the best tour guide. He was in communication with the wineries all day to provide the best experience for us. He even pivoted and added different stops to add to our experience.

Hi! One of the things guests don't always see is how much communication happens behind the scenes to keep the day running smoothly. I'm delighted Army's care and flexibility helped create such a memorable experience. I'll be sure he sees your kind and deserving words. Cheers! Shawnda
Linda was a great guide
Linda was a great guide. She took us to wonderful wineries that we enjoyed very much, Rutherford Ranch, Ghost Block and Back Stage. They were all different in a good way. The variety of the experiences made for a delightful day. We fed the goats, sipped among the vines, ate lunch on a patio, tasted from a barrel. Our group of eleven was the perfect size and it was great to meet other wine lovers from throughout the world. Thank you Linda and Platypus.

Hi! One of the things I love most about wine country is that no two wineries are ever the same. It sounds like Linda put together a day full of memorable experiences, and I'm delighted you enjoyed every one of them. I'll be sure to share this with Linda. Cheers! Shawnda
Very Enjoyble for first timers
Army was very knowledgeable and entertaining. Had to make a schedule change on the fly and ended up at a great winery.

Our tour was great
We had a fantastic experience on our wine tour. Our driver, Chris, was excellent—friendly, knowledgeable, and he selected three outstanding vineyards for us to visit. We were also lucky to tour with Laurie, who works behind the scenes at Platypus and is a local to the area, which made the experience even more insightful and enjoyable. Highly recommend!

We loved our tour! Army is a 10/10!
We loved our tour!! We had a group of seven and everyone had a great time. Getting picked up and dropped off at our rental house really made the experience easy and enjoyable. The way the tour schedule was set up was perfect, enough time to enjoy each stop but not so long that we felt we were “waiting around.” Army was an excellent driver and guide - helpful, knowledgeable, and so fun! He had us laughing and smiling the whole trip. The provided lunch was delicious and a perfectly timed break between tastings. I absolutely recommend using Platypus when in the Sonoma area.

Fun, expensive, vacation experience
Everyone who was encountered during the tour process was lovely and well informed on any questions my friends and I had. I was under the impression that the fee for the tour included any fee that the winerys may have needed for a tasting but that was false. The tour price itself was expensive due to the fact that we still had to pay at each winery, 3 to be exact, as well as a 20% gratuity fee. So platypus charged almost $200 per person for the ride to and from a curated group of vineyards and that wasn’t worth the money in my opinion. Still enjoyed the experience but definitely a money grab.

Hi Keonka, thank you for taking time to write. Although it's stated on our website and also reiterated in the confirmation letter, I understand that one could think that tasting fees are included. Know that tasting fees on our join-in tours are discounted for our guests to be $25pp at each of the three wineries visited, and that they are not included in the tour fee because most wineries waive them with bottles purchased and each winery is a little different. Average tasting fees in Napa and Sonoma typically start at $40pp. The current $139pp tour price indeed covers scheduling and orchestrating the day, your expert local guide, transportation as well as your picnic lunch. Gratuity is at your descrection (with 20% being customary). There is however an auto-gratuity for parties of 5 or more.
I'm so glad you enjoyed a fun experience, our guide staff work hard to keep the day fun and informative. As a team we go over this type of feedback to see if there is anything more we could have done to make sure all guests are fully aware of the tasting fees. Thank you again for sharing. Warm wine country regards, - Shawnda
Wonderful guides
Shuttle bus felt tight with a full group and A/C struggled during afternoon. But Courtney kept us laughing all day, chose 3 fantastic boutique wineries and the included lunch was fresh, so I was satisfied!

Thank you for spending the day with us and for the thoughtful feedback. We’re glad Courtney kept the fun rolling and helped make the experience memorable with a great mix of boutique wineries. We also appreciate the note about the shuttle comfort and A/C during a full tour on a hot day — that kind of feedback is genuinely helpful. Hope to see you back in wine country again soon! Cheers, - Shawnda
What a great experience
What a great experience! Steve, our driver and guide, set up a wonderful day. We had 15 people on our tour :) and while this may seem like a lot he did such a fabulous job of making sure every person’s needs were met. He made local recommendations for places to eat. I can’t say enough good things about this company. We will definitely be back!
