This was such a fun and unique experience! I wish we had a sidecar of our own LOL! Great ride through the city and then up into the mountains; we would have never seen this part of the beautiful countryside. Cloud-shrouded peaks and lavender valleys. We visited two wineries for tastings and truly had a great time. Eric and his team are skilled, professional and a pleasure.
