Marcus had a lot on his plate with our party of 7 ladies. Right of the bat he was exceptionally courteous, knowledgeable, and just as excited as we were to go on our wine tour. The wineries he picked were phenomenal, as was his driving through the fog and windy roads to get to them. Lunch was provided, and I hope one day my gluten free and vegan option charcuterie plate will be half as good as Marcus'. Thank you for the unforgettable birthday tour Marcus!

My wife and I went on a wine tour of the Yamhill/Carter region of Willamette Valley. The tour was outstanding and the highlight of the trip. While the area is full of great wineries, having Marcus with Terran Travels guide us was a privilege. Apart from his understanding of the wine, personal relationships with many of the wineries and friendly demeanour, he is exceptionally knowledgeable about the terrain and geological history of the land. This proved remarkably interesting, as it served to help explain and identify some of the nuance differences between the vintages sampled from the properties we visited. Should you have an interest in wine and be looking for an educated guide or just want to spend a great day touring some beautiful properties, I would urge you to book with Marcus.
