“This was our first girls trip to the Finger Lakes, and Orlando made it truly enjoyable. Despite what you may have read about him, I encourage you to choose him. He was friendly, engaging, and incredibly knowledgeable about the local wineries. He listened to our wine preferences and matched them perfectly. We had a great time in his company, even sharing a meal at one winery. Orlando enhanced our day by letting us stop for pizza on our way home. Thank you, Orlando, for a fantastic day.”— 588debib
