“Great tour, would have been nice if we had been able to see hallumi being made the traditional way rather than the farm visit where we just looked through a window at the machinery. The highlight was the winery the 91 year owner was wonderful and did the your himself. Lunch was lovely. Would have liked to have seen how things were actually made. Myra our guide was very good, lots of knowledge and laughter.”
