Relaxing day in Cowichan Wine Country! - Wonderful experience touring Cowichan Valley wineries. Appreciated seeing three, all very different and unique tasting experience (esp. Cherry Point where owner Javier was so passionate about the land, his product and a priceless personality!). Kim was an excellent driver and guide, warm and knowledgeable and provided a lovely experience. We would have liked a bit more information about the area and what we were seeing during the drive, but overall a fabulous experience. Thank you Kim and Canadian Craft Tours!! ❤️

Great wine and great company! - We had an outstanding experience with our tour guide, Colin Hawes! His extensive knowledge and excellent recommendations for Victoria truly enhanced our trip (his dinner recommendation was specacular!) The tour was intimate with only ourselves and another couple. Our favorite stop was Cherry Point Winery, and the views at Blue Grouse were breathtaking, even in the rain. The charcuterie lunch was delicious, and the tastings at each winery were exceptional. Highly recommend this tour!

Great Tour, Good Wines, and Good Fun! - My wife and I went on this tour and had a great time. The van was on time and was very comfortable for our journey from Victoria to Cowichan Valley. Our tour guide Colin did a great job driving and chatting about the wineries we were to visit. We were a small group of seven, and we got to know a great group of people from around North America. We stopped at 3 wineries, and had lots of time at each. First up was Averill Creek, very nice facility and very nice Pinot Noir to try. A very nice charcuterie and cheese board was served at the second stop as lunch (Unsworth). Last stop was Cherry Point, not to missed! We learned a lot from the owner, who is very passionate about his wines! Highly recommended tour!

Great wines and fun way to see some of the island - Had a great time on this tour. Colin was friendly and knowledgeable without narrating every single moment which was perfect. Also a nice way to see a different part of the island. Would definitely recommend.
