Great Time in the Coal River Valley

Our wine tour with @boutiquewinetours was a great success. Peter was both personable and knowledgeable, offering stories and insights about local history and events throughout our time together. He is a 9th generation Tasmanian and certainly knows his way around! He met the small group of six of us of us in Hobart on time and transported us through the Coal River Valley to four wineries (one where we had homemade pizza for lunch). Each selected winery had a nice array of wines to taste and provided us with enough time together to chat casually and get to know one another without feeling rushed. At tour’s end, Peter personalized our drop-offs, providing two of our group a trip to the airport and us to our hotel location just west of our downtown drop off. I left my bag with my phone and wallet in the van, not realizing it until we got back to our room. Peter took the time and effort to drive back to our hotel and return my things on his own dime. Overall, a great tour on a beautiful day with a good guy!
