“If I were rating solely on the tour day, this is 5 stars. Our guide was incredible—personable, on time, and very accommodating. She really made the day by taking us to extra spots and keeping the energy high. The stops at Castle & Key and Jeptha Creed were particular highlights. I am knocking off one star for the "heartache" of getting there. Expect busy phone lines, slow responses to messages, and last-minute changes to pickup locations and vehicle descriptions. It felt a bit disorganized until the moment the van actually pulled up. Pro Tip: Don't panic if you do not hear back right away. The tour is worth the wait,…”

“We were paired with another couple, which was fun and we made new friends, but I think we expected more of a tour bus environment and not an Uber like experience. Climbing in and out of the back of a third row seating situation was a bit awkward. Our driver was nice, he offered us waters, but didn’t talk much. The amount of time at each stop was way too short and barely enough time to complete the tours. We didn’t have time to explore the sites outside of the very short tours and shopping was very quick and short at the distillery, after we tried to squeeze in some…”
