She was so knowledgeable about everywhere we visited, as well as Norfolk County. The Ride the Bine bus was great for travelling between each place we visited. I would 100% come back to Norfolk just to do another tour with Ride the Bine and bring my girlfriends!

Sherry was our tour guide and she was extremely knowledgeable about the area and wine, and we had so much fun. She was fantastic at taking pictures of our group at each winery, allowing us to document the experience along the way. The wineries that we visited all had a good variety of wine tastings, including different whites, reds, and mocktails for the ladies that were not able to drink. The people who served us at the wineries were very friendly and knowledgeable. The wine tour that we booked included a lunch and they were able to accommodate our dietary restrictions. We had such a wonderful time I would definitely recommend the Grape Vine Tours! Thank you Sherry and Peter!

This is my fourth tour with Grapevine and you can always expect a professional well planned tour. The lunch provided at all the wineries have been 5 star that are well paired with the wineries at each winery. Expect top level of service whether you are a group of 2 or 8. Thank you for a great day of wine tasting.

We travelled to NYC with Comfort Tours in October, 2023. This was our first experience with a bus…read moretour, and it was very enjoyable. Our tour director, Eliane, was knowledgeable and entertaining. Roxanne, our driver, was amazing as she navigated Manhattan traffic, taking the bus through spots that most would avoid even in a compact car. The bus itself was clean, although the seats were less than comfortable for such a long drive, even with frequent rest stops. The hotel was lovely, and breakfasts were very good. We likely will not do another bus tour, preferring to set our own schedule, but this was an excellent way to see New York for the first time.

Our Tour Director was Natasha and Driver named Miriam on a Kunkel coach bus. The trip was scheduled for travel on day 1 and 4. Day 2 and 3 was a guided tour and happened to be two of the hottest & humid days in NYC; 90 followed by 100 degrees temperature only! The hotel was very nice and the guided part of the trip was just enough history and information about the sights to make it a very memorable vacation. Crossing the border was an unbelievable experience, both TO in record time and BACK having the bus searched, all luggage and all passengers had to carry in all their belongings & purchases into the Customs office for processing. Thank you Natasha and Miriam for making it an exciting adventure!

Eldon House is a walk from our hotel and downtown London area. It's a home where the Harris family…read morelived from 1834 and the home was donated in the mid 1900's and since been restored for viewing. The house different rooms and signs to explain the contents. The lower floor has many of the hunting trophies from the various animals killed in Africa by one of the grandsons. It also shows the servant's kitchen, sitting room with many artifacts from the travels around the world. Upstairs are various bedrooms and bathroom. A guide greeted us when we went into the house and there were only two other visitors. It's pay by donation at the front of the house. We spent less than an hour in the house but enjoyed reading and seeing the history of this prominent family.

The Eldon House is a great historical house museum. Admission is by donation ($5 suggested, but…read morepay what you will.) The house was donated to the city with most of the original belongings still in it, which is pretty rare for house museums. The tour is self guided, and you can wander about all of the rooms at your leisure. A guide greets you at the door, and gives you some background information. There are some interpretive panels as you go, but not an overwhelming amount of reading. It's very cool to see a fully furnished historical home set up as it would have been in the early 1900s. I especially liked seeing the kitchen, as well the children's play room (complete with creepy dolls!) Keep an eye out for the weird hunting trophies in the house -- and look for the elephant foot umbrella stand! (This is not a euphemism. It is a literal elephant foot that was turned into an umbrella stand.) During the summer they offer afternoon tea on the patio, and they run a variety of special events, lectures, tours, and classes throughout the year. The Eldon house is definitely worth a quick visit, if you're visiting or a local. I believe they also rent out the venue for private functions. They don't have their own parking lot; you'll need to find metered parking on Ridout street or park in a nearby pay lot. I hope to come back for a special event sometime soon!

Hired to take us to the Detroit airport for 7 am flight. The pick up time was 2 am, when they…read moredidn't show I called the owner. He couldn't even contact the driver. Found out after that the driver claimed he was told 2pm. Thankfully we were all leaving from a friends farm and our vehicles were parked there already, so we loaded up 3 of them (12 in our group) and started for Sarnia. The difficult part of this is if we drove ourselves to Detroit, our return flight was to Toronto, how do we get our vehicles from Detroit? Thoughtfully the owner had our vehicles driven back to the farm (more on that later). On route the owner called and gave us an address south of Sarnia, told to meet there and we would have a limo waiting. The driver drove about 140km/hr to get us there as quick as he could to make our flight (scary). We had gone through a panic state, used our own gas for 3 vehicles, 200 kms round trip and when asked if we would get a partial refund for their mistake, he gave us $300 back on a $1500 bill. After paying our friends for the gas money for using their vehicles, that left just under $200 refunded for what could have been a huge problem. When inquired about being a little more considerate since we drove 1/2 the distance to Detroit and 1/4 of our round trip contract, I received no more correspondence. Sadly I will not be using or recommending this company to anyone, which is tragic because I like to support small, local businesses but customer satisfaction and word of mouth does not concern this company.

A nice visit to their museum-grade trucks of old was part of the tour. The finishing touch was a beer sampling in their hospitality room, where we not only tasted 5 beers, but we learned about the different ingredients and brewing processes of each. The tour was conducted with each attendee being issued safety glasses and a headset/hearing protection muffs. There were few instances where we could not receive the tour on the headsets, but that was mainly due to becoming spread out and around a corner from the tour guide. Reservations are required. There are certain rules and regulations for attending, and there was a nominal fee, I think it was $5 per adult person. I recommend!!
