    Aniko was an excellent guide/host for our food and wine tour. She shared a lot of interesting information about Yountville and the places we visited. It was a nice variety of food and drinks. Bottega was our favorite! Yountville is a great town to visit while in Napa. Quaint, small town with amazing dining options. Would definitely recommend this tour!

    Tour not as described on website.
    Debra_P, Oct 2022
    Our tour guide Aniko was amazing & deserves a five star rating. I have a three star for the tour for the following reasons as stated under “What to Expect” on your website: - we did not go to Bistro Jeantry - Did not get to see the chocolatier making chocolate, however the chocolates we tasted in the final pairing was amazing - we did not stop at Bouchon Bakery - We did not see the French Laundry Kitchen, but did enjoy the gardens
    Response from Host, Oct 2022
    Hi Debra, Thank you for your honesty and for clarifying. I really appreciate your details so much. Can you please email me and let me know where it still says Bistro Jeanty? Perhaps on a third party website vs. our own? Unfortunately, we have not been permitted to visit since the Pandemic/restaurant issues when we came back in 2021. Most times, you are able to view chocolate being made in Kollar...I will check to see if that has changed... also, since the scandal with the governor, The French Laundry no longer allows anyone without a reservation on the property that houses the restaurant. We did scrub any outdated information off of the Gourmet Food & Wine Tour website in 2021 as well as Trip Advisor's. I would appreciate if you can help us find where this false expectation is being set. We do think we have come up with a strong and successful experience, according to our recent reviews, but I can understand when your expectation was different and for that I apologize.
    Elizabeth was fantastic. ...
