our host Noa was brilliant and a glass of the local red was the highlight ... Mid-week so it was quiet so it wasnt too busy. Ideal with kids (ours are 6 and 9), and we hit 6 tastings, and first thing in the morning. Would book again no question.

our host Noa was brilliant and the warm baklava at the last stop was the highlight. Over easter break so it wasnt too busy. Last day of the trip, and tried about 8 dishes. Would book again no question.
