I am a local of Niagara, and I am also a Travel Advisor who specializes in wine travel. When I heard about this tour that is offered of the Bench Region, I was very eager to try it out. I am always looking for great options for my clients. I was not disappointed, in fact, I was thrilled with the entire tour! Doug was our tour guide extraordinaire; he was fun, informative, and such a gentleman to our group of ladies. He made sure that we were well taken care of, labeled and carried our purchases, and made the entire day a day of laughter and good times. The wineries that we visited were beautiful, and we got to try several wines at each stop. Do not hesitate to book this tour, and make sure you ask for Doug as your tour guide.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Amazing Cellar Door Wine Experience with Dwight! We had the most incredible day on Dwight’s wine tour as part of the Cellar Door wine experience. Dwight was beyond amazing — so knowledgeable, funny, and genuinely kind. He made the whole day feel relaxed, fun, and really special. You can tell he truly loves what he does and knows the region and wines inside out. Every stop felt thoughtfully chosen and we never felt rushed. At the first winery, Nathan was absolutely wonderful as well. He was so helpful, welcoming, and kind, and really made the tasting feel personal and enjoyable. From start to finish the day was seamless, fun, and full of great wine, great food, and great company. We had the best time and would recommend this experience to anyone visiting the area. Thank you for such a memorable day! 🍷✨

At the last moment (literally an hour before the tour) we called to see if there was a tour we could do that day. The man who answered the phone was on it and within an hour we were on the bus (that came right to our hotel) and on our way to Niagara on the Lake. Our tour guide, Karen, was exceptional! Knowledgeable, kind and funny. She provided a lot of history about the region, took pictures of the group throughout the day and did whatever she could to make the day perfect! The wineries we went to were excellent choices with very nice staff. Overall, a great experience!
