Wine Tour Companies
August 2020
- Based on 4 people, doing a Bottleneck Drive Tour, Summerland, BC.
- A 5-hour tour is what I based Quail Valley Personal Driver on
- The hourly rate is the individual fee divided by the hours of the tour
- If the tour is 6 hours long but there is one hour for lunch I divided the individual fee by 5 hours as the driver was not doing anything.
