What people are saying about Camp Verde

I wasn’t quite sure what to think upon arrival, as the building was a bit deceiving. This establishment is inside a former auto dealership building, and could be easy to miss. All doubt subsided though when we met our guide Ron. He was a character for sure, definitely a lovable one! During the ride to the Alcantarra, Ron thoroughly entertained us with some background on the local plants & history before we arrived at the vineyard. From there the real ride began - 4x4 around the property, and he even drove us straight across the Verde river, much to our amusement and surprise! He was genuine, warm & polite throughout the experience. Not a single complaint there. My feedback is for the vineyard - the area behind the winery (of which part of the tour explores) feels- distracting from the experience. The staff were polite & I know the world is short-staffed lately-but their inefficiency was disappointing. We had little time to enjoy our wine or the grounds.

We enjoyed the experience. Ron was a great guide by shared with us the local flora, native peoples, and wildlife. The wine tasting wasn't bad either.
