Based in Napa and Sonoma, Platypus Wine Tours is honored to be included on the recent Top 10 US Tours List compiled by travel giant, TripAdvisor. Platypus was the only tour company in the wine country to make the list.
- San Francisco, CA (1888PressRelease) September 25, 2015 - NAPA, California. This week one of our own wine country tour companies woke up to a very big surprise. Platypus Wine Tours, based in Napa and Sonoma, has been included in the Top 10 Tours in the U.S., a winning list compiled by the world renowned travel site, TripAdvisor.
Platypus Wine Tours is one of the ten tour companies to earn a place on this list, including Wild Horse Adventure Tours in North Carolina and Electric Tour Company Segway Tours in San Francisco. Platypus Wine Tours is the only wine tour company to make the list.
"It feels fantastic to be recognized in this way!" stated Jenny Toomer, the Director of Sales and Marketing at Platypus Wine Tours. "We are honored to share a place on this list with so many other deserving tour companies. We work so hard every single day to make sure our guests have the best tour experience while they are here. It's thrilling to know our guests appreciate those efforts."
According to TripAdvisor, "wine novices and oenophiles alike are sure to savor the sips throughout this intimate experience." Platypus Wine Tours has become widely known in the Napa and Sonoma regions for hosting tours of local hidden gems that visitors to the region wouldn't otherwise even know about.
"We often hear from guests that they are hoping to have an idyllic wine tour experience," said Don Rickard, company founder. "They hope it will be complete with all of the high notes, such awesome views, a scenic picnic lunch, and great wines to taste (of course!), as well as little extras, like meeting wine makers, tasting wine from the barrels, seeing historic wineries and touring wine caves. We took this to heart and try to incorporate as many of these elements (and many others!) into every tour day."
Platypus Wine Tours is ranked #1 on TripAdvisor for Tours and Activities in both Napa and Sonoma regions. "The kicker is this," Rickard added. "It's never stuffy. We aim to present a light-hearted and fun tour, visiting the most friendly and easy-going wineries we've been able to discover. We're very gratified that so many of our guests have gone to TripAdvisor to rave about the experience!"
The top ten list is based on the quality and quantity of reviews and opinions from millions of TripAdvisor travelers. TripAdvisor specifically identified single-day, guided tour excursions to one or multiple points of interest that provide education and entertainment.
