We were able to modify this tour for our needs. We wanted to visit Sheepworld and were offered a wine experience too. We opted out of the wine tour for a chocolate experience. Adil was our personal guide. Hen took us to a wonderful restaurant which was inclieded in the price of the tour. We got an extra bonus of visiting a renowned pottery business. To top off our return to town he drove us to the top of One Tree Hill. He truly personalized the entire trip to our liking

We had a great day with our guide, David. It was a wonderful day and we saw places we would have never found had we been on our own.

We visited for a few hours in the afternoon. Such a helpful and friendly welcome on arrival. The art is outstanding and the gardens simply fabulous. We all loved this experience and highly recommend it to others.
