“My husband and I enjoyed a a wonderful afternoon on the Malibu Wine Hike.. Ben our tour guide was great. He made the tour fun and he was very knowledgeable about the property. The tour was almost a private tour since there was only one other couple which was really nice. I highly recommend this tour if you are visiting Malibu.”
