FAQs & Terms

Your per-person price bundles both your transportation and every tasting fee at your reserved stops — there's nothing extra to pay at the winery. We also include water, non-alcoholic drinks, and light snacks on board, a cooler to keep any bottles you buy, and group photos along the way, all free. The only things you'll spend on are lunch and any wine you take home.

Every region offers the same four ways to taste: Classic (three wineries, our signature day), Wine + Village (two wineries plus a village or Main Street lunch stop — you buy your own lunch), Mix Your Own (three stops you choose — any mix of winery, brewery, and distillery), and Fully Custom (the driver and 13-seat shuttle by the hour, design-your-own day, BYOB). You pick your flavor at checkout.

Up to 13 guests — that's the full shuttle. We host everything from a couple's day out to bachelorette parties, birthdays, and work outings. There's a two-guest minimum to run a tour.

Almost always, yes — the shuttle is usually yours alone. On the rare occasion two parties have booked the same date and the same itinerary, we may combine them, and we'll tell you before your tour. If you'd rather not share, just say so and we'll work it out. See our Terms for the exact wording.

Ask us anyway. An unavailable date usually means another group already has the shuttle that day — but there's often room to join them. Call or text 830-355-VINO (8466) and we'll tell you exactly where we're headed, so you can decide whether it suits your group.

Prices are per person and tiered by the size of your group — the bigger the party, the lower the per-person rate — with all your tastings included. Tips are never added. Exact rates are on each tour page — see Wimberley / Driftwood, Johnson City, or Fredericksburg for the current tiers.

Your choice at checkout: pay in full, or hold your date with a $500 reservation fee and pay the balance later — we charge the remaining balance automatically 14 days before your tour. Bookings that total less than $500 are simply paid in full at booking. Everything runs through our secure FareHarbor checkout.

Cancel 14 or more days ahead for a full refund. Between 72 hours and 14 days, we'll move you to another date or issue a tour credit. Within 72 hours, or for a no-show, we're unable to refund. Full details are in our Terms below.

Yes — we'll reschedule your tour once at no charge with at least 72 hours' notice, subject to availability. Just call or email us.

Our tours run rain or shine — tasting rooms are indoors, and the Hill Country is beautiful in any weather. In the rare event of severe or unsafe conditions, we may postpone; if we cancel, you'll choose a free reschedule or a full refund.

Door-to-door from your home, hotel, or Airbnb. It's free across our home zone — Gruene, New Braunfels, Wimberley, Canyon Lake, and San Marcos. Into the Austin–San Antonio corridor, pickup is free for private groups of 6 or more, or a $50 intro rate for smaller groups. Farther afield, just ask and we'll quote it. Pickup is charged per booking, not per person.

Three: Wimberley & Driftwood (closest to Austin), Johnson City (a little quieter, off the beaten path), and Fredericksburg (the marquee day out on the 290 Wine Road). Each has its own page with wineries and pricing.

Wimberley/Driftwood and Johnson City run about 5.5 hours (roughly 10:30 AM–4:00 PM); Fredericksburg is a fuller day at about 7 hours (roughly 10:00 AM–5:00 PM) for the longer drive. Doorstep pickups shift your start and return times by the drive to and from your address — your confirmed itinerary always shows exact times.

Water, soft drinks, and light snacks are included on board. Lunch isn't included — you'll have time to grab a bite at the wineries, and the Wine + Village flavor builds in a village or Main Street lunch stop (you buy your own). Want food on board? Add breakfast tacos ($12/person) or a personal charcuterie board ($15/person) — pre-order at least 48 hours ahead so we get quantities right.

You're welcome to bring your own snacks and non-alcoholic drinks. Outside alcohol isn't permitted on our tastings-included tours — but our Fully Custom / transport-only bookings are BYOB, so if you want to bring your own, that's the option to book.

Tips are excluded from every price and left off checkout entirely — gratuity is always appreciated. If you'd like to tip your host at the end of the day, you're welcome to.

You must be 21 or older with a valid government-issued ID to taste or consume alcohol on our tours. See our Terms for the full conduct and alcohol policy.
