Our driver "Joe" was hilarious!!!!!! he made the day so much fun and is super knowledgeable about wine country. The price of this tour is amazing especially comparing it to all the $100 plus options. I went for my moms birthday with 10 of us in total and it was such an amazing experience and definitely one to remember. We bought 13 bottles of wine, that's how much we loved them! All wineries had a different experience and had different specialties. I highly recommend this tour!

Affordable, fun and worth every minute!

Anushka_S, May 2024

If you’re lucky enough to get Joey from Niagara Fun Tours inc. he’s personable and very knowledgeable about the Niagara and Toronto and overall Ontario areas. He’s very capable and ensures everyone is taken care of during the trip. He even tries to give you the chance to experience an extra winery if there is a chance to. Each winery was unique and provided excellent tasting options. There were many food and drink options that were non-alcoholic as well and many boutique stores attached to the breweries, wineries, etc.

Fun winery trip.

Melissa_S, Apr 2024

We had a great time however they did have to change up the bus before picking us up due to mechanical issues so they used a school bus instead which was fine. When we were showing up at our fourth winery they were already fully booked so we were turned away. Our tour guide did try to make up for it with taking us to a cheese factory and a chocolate factory. However that did mean we ended up missing the last 2 other winery's planned which a bit of a bummer. Still a great time overall.

Very fun, but I feel not worth the cost

Gina_P, Apr 2024

Loved the guide and the winery locations were fine… the wines weren’t super awesome at the wineries we went to unfortunately. I was super disappointed that we paid for a winery stop that was substituted for a 40 Creek stop. We love whiskey however, they give the tasting for free if you walk in off the street. So I feel like we paid for something that is free instead of stopping at a winery that we would have had to pay for otherwise.

Uncorking experience

Rena_R, Apr 2024

The trip was very different from the previous wine tours we have done in the past. Both positive and negative. It was good because we got a chance to see some of the smaller wineries and taste some unique wines and different blends. The negative side being the lunch option, the food was substandard for the price. To make the experience better the food would have been better at the VEINI winery. They had good choices of sandwiches and other foods

Good Value to Discover Hidden Gems

Jon_C, Apr 2024

Joey and Tina were awesome! A lot of fun and wonderful to deal with. Could not have asked for a better wine tasting experience. My wife and I loved it! And Tina's recommendations were amazing as well.

Joey and Stephen the tour...

Athina_G, Apr 2024

Joey and Stephen the tour guides are friendly, funny and helpful...also very informative. fun tour It took a while to get to each winery...explaining how the tour is 4ish hours with 4 wineries. but we got to visit beautiful place which I would have never seen. other than the typical wineries in Niagara-on-the-lake which have become super overpriced for tastings.

Misleading! READ BEFORE YOU BOOK!

Kiely_F, Apr 2024

I’m honestly at a loss to describe this tour. First, the description says that you will be touring Niagara on the Lake wineries; this was more like Schitt’s Creek wineries as the closest we got to Niagara on the Lake was the car pool lot near the exit sign for that area. After being picked up in a school bus (!), we set off to the 1st winery, with our “tour guide” explaining he doesn’t drink. So yes, the tour guide for a WINE TOUR DOESN’T DRINK WINE. We traveled about 45 minutes to the 1st winery where we learned nothing about actual wine or the area, just that the tour guide had multiple marriages and has a thing for having children…. Truly bizarre. The 1st winery was actually lovely (Vieni) so things started looking up…. But then we got to the 2nd one. I’m struggling to find the words to describe this “winery” other than “is this a joke?”. Awful. This was also the lunch stop. For folks looking for a nice place to fast, go to Puddicombe Winery. The “wine” was not only awful, but they served from plastic cups that they didn’t have even replace with each tasting. So much more to say…. But in summary, no. Just no. We then basically breezed through Forty Creek distillery (I mean, they clearly wanted us gone as quick as possible and kinda can’t blame them). The last stop was Cornerstone and that was an actual delight. Small, micro winery that’s up and coming and the bright spot on an otherwise disaster of a tour. I know the expression “you get what you pay for”, and my expectations were suitably in line with a lower bar than usual. This tour limboed right under that bar. Save your money. Don’t book this one. Unless you really miss your school bus days and/or want to see the area that clearly inspired the hit CBC/Netflix TV show, just without the laughs.

Relaxing and fun

DL_P, Apr 2024

Tour guide and bus driver were great. I was surprised we didn’t just go to wineries, but I decided I like that. Keep it up.

No what I expected

Indira_M, Apr 2024

In general the experience was good, but we suppose to go to four place and the bus broke. Really I expect they should give us some discount. I am not going to give 4 start because there were some many issues.

Amazing Wine Tour

Kimberly_W, Apr 2024

Joe was an amazing tour operator. We visited four amazing wineries and a chocolate factory. I was in a small group but we had an amazing time on this experience. I would definitely recommend going on this tour and ask for Joe!

Fun filled adventure

Steve_Z, Apr 2024

The tour was wonderful. Our driver Joe waited at each pick up stop telling us information about the location. Then he was very friendly and informative about the area and about each stop.

Worth it

Amanda_B, Apr 2024

this trip was well worth the money! we went to so many places and it felt like we got the most out of it. your guide was great too. our favorite place was the caroline cellars. they let you pick 4 unique samples each but since i came with my boyfriend we shared and both got to try 8!!

Enjoyed two new wineries...

Marlene_T, Mar 2024

Enjoyed two new wineries that I have never been to. Enjoyed the wine and food at Caroline Cellars and Cornerstone was a cool winery that is up and coming. Joe and Tina were great for information and suggestions of things to try. And informative of the area. Joe is great for a joke and laugh this is my second tour this time around was a great experience. The last was decent too.

Fun wine tour experience

Jannine_L, Mar 2024

We were picked up on time in a comfortable bus with a fantastic bus driver and tour guide. Enjoyed all wineries visited with lots of time at each location. I appreciated that they told us some fun facts and different wines that they enjoyed. It was great to be dropped off at our hotel as we had purchased some wine and souvenirs. We will definitely go again!

It was okay and felt too...

Prachi_V, Mar 2024

It was okay and felt too stretched, not the worth. They could have covered only one winery but a descent one that could showcase some beautiful experiences.

100% would do it again!

Valentina_C, Mar 2024

Amazing experience! Our bus driver and guide were really great and added to the overall experience. 10/10 would do it again!

Driver was...

Tyra_W, Mar 2024

Driver was Funny and had a great willimesa to be helpful. The pickup spot was unclear and almost Led To us being towed. About 5 hours

Fantastic value

Stacey_S, Mar 2024

With transportation and tastings included, this tour is a fantastic deal! The wineries were great and the tour guide was very friendly and helpful! Pick up was a little confusing and there wasn’t an actual tour of the chocolate factory, just an opportunity to buy candy. But I would HIGHLY recommend this tour and I would book it again!

great wine tasting tour

Alison_p, Feb 2024

great experiences at all the wineries! staff were fantastic. Caroline's Cellars tasting and fabulous lunch was the highlight for sure, Veini was nice, and the outdoor patio experience at Cornerstone winery was made memorable by the hostess (sorry, forgot her name) what a great experience we all had! The stop at the chocolate factory was good also!

Learn Canadian Wines

Michael_M, Feb 2024

Great way to learn about Canadian wines. Driver was timely and funny. Very punctual. Great variety of wines to taste. Well worth the cost.
