What they like?

Knowledgeable driver guides, a generous lineup of wineries and distillery tastings, and easy hinterland views without having to drive yourself.

What could be better?

Honestly, not much. The mountain road winds a little, so grab a front seat if you get queasy and enjoy the tastings.
