We recently did the wine/cider/distillery tour, and unfortunately it was pretty underwhelming --…read moreespecially for the $200 per person price (plus gratuity). The tour felt rushed, unorganized, and unprepared. At each stop, the guides had to go in and order everything when we arrived, so we waited around, and by the time we finally got our cider, wine, or liquor, it was already time to leave. We were told there would be cheese boards, but our group of ten got a single small charcuterie plate to share and nothing else. At each stop we also heard the actual tasting prices -- $6 at the distillery and $10 at the cider place -- which made us question what we were really paying for. We could have done the same tour ourselves for about $30 per person. The guides were very friendly, but overall the experience didn't match the cost or expectations.

City tours called us and warned us of the problem and delay which was fine, as we were being picked up at our hotel. They resolved the problem quickly and our guide was there and ready to go within 15 minutes of the originally scheduled time. Our guide Lauren was fantastic! She handled the mishap with grace and without skipping a beat. City tours had to have Ubers take us from brewery to brewery which worked out perfectly fine in the end. On to the tour itself, we were a smaller group, which I loved! We stopped at 4 locations and we sampled A LOT of beer. (I don't understand the reviews saying you barely get 3 drinks because by the end of it my husband and I could barely drink the last beers) We got behind the scenes tours at 2 of the breweries. Goodwater was my personal favorite. Lauren gave us a phenomenal history lesson along the way, which I fully nerded out to. All in all, it was a really fun experience that both, my husband and I, would recommend trying!

What a great experience yesterday - Matt was our guide - this was my FIRST Fly fishing experience…read moreever- so my friend and I were HOPING to catch 6-10 fish total. Due to rain Matt suggested we lake fish from a boat as the rivers were too high and muddy- He knows what he's talking about -I caught 11 before lunch!

It was only a 3 mile trip yet two other companies quoted me over $350 because they have a 2 hour minimum. Ted offered his services at a fraction of that amount and the experience could not have been better. He communicated with me the morning of to let us know he was on the way, he arrived on time and was very helpful getting three senior citizens and tons of bags into his van. Very personable, the van was immaculate and the entire experience was 5 star. Highly recommend this company if you are ever in need of shuttle service in the BTV area.

I was 11 years old when the Sound of Music first opened in theatres, and I've been a huge fan of…read moreanyone or anything related to that movie or period in history. The fact that the story was true and that this famous singing family settled in Stowe, VT because it reminded them of their homeland, well, it's been a long-time dream of mine to visit the Von Trapp Family Lodge in Stowe and feel the connection in person. And so I did... in July 2025, some SIXTY years after seeing the Sound of Music. We actually didn't stay here, which seems kind of odd considering what a fan I am. Now that I know how much there is to do in Stowe... and at the lodge itself, perhaps if we come back with plans to stay longer, I would stay here. The Von Trapp Family Lodge has so much to offer a person... whether one stays here or not. These are some of the activities: 1. Hiking 2. Mountain biking 3. Skiing / Cross-country skiing 4. Horse-drawn carriage rides 5. Sleigh Rides 6. Disc golf 7. Yoga / Massage 8. Bicycle rentals 9. Tennis 10. Swimming 11. Rock Climbing Wall 12. Indoor arts / crafts / culinary classes 13. Wine and/or beer tastings 14. Choice of 4 restaurants We thoroughly enjoyed walking around the lodge and grounds and learning more about the family and the history behind the lodge. Since this (ironically) my 1700th review, it's fitting that such a special place falls on a noteworthy review number.

His warm demeanor + decades at United definitely make him a good fit to welcome all of VTFL's guests.

[Shoutout to our server Michelle too!] BILL at Cows: Bill was a solid tour guide - kept the group engaged and safe, clearly knows the cows like the back of his hand. Ditto the history and lore of the grazing areas and the Highland program in general. You want a friendly, knowledgeable guy for this role and he fits the bill. (Hehe.) Also recommend immediate promotion ahead of peers.
