My wife and I did this tour yesterday and thought it was fantastic. The scones for morning tea at Woodlands Homestead were fabulous. It was wonderful to see the "Living Legends" looking so content in their retirement. Our host Tamara did a fantastic job and made the day for us.

We thorougly enjoyed this tour. Tamara is an excellent tour guide. She is very informative and friendly. We had a lovely morning tea at Living Legends followed by a nice pizza at the winery. Last of all was beer tasting at a brewery. We would recommened this tour. Thanks Tamara for a really nice day out.
