Designated Driver Wine Tour: We Drive Your Car

Drink at your pace, let someone else handle the road.

A designated driver service in wine country where you supply the vehicle and the driver handles the wheel for five hours of tastings at stops you choose. The itinerary is yours to build and change on the fly; tasting fees are separate, and the minimum age is 21. A 100% guarantee protects you against a DUI on the tour.

The Experience

You pick the stops—wineries, breweries, distilleries, cideries, or a mix—and the driver gets you there safely. The itinerary is not locked in; if you want to stay longer at one place or skip ahead to another, the day shifts with you. No pressure, no schedule that overrides what you actually want to do. The driver arrives knowing the region and can suggest routes or venues, but the day is built around your interests, not a preset list.

Five hours of driving is included in the booking. If you want to keep going past that, additional hours are charged separately through cash or credit card at the end of the day. Tasting fees at each stop are on you—the service covers the transportation and the sober driver, not the pours. The minimum age to participate is 21.

Bring your own car or arrange one beforehand; the driver will meet you and take the wheel from there. The driver speaks English and knows the local spots well enough to navigate suggestions or changes without slowing the day down. Wheelchair accessibility is available, and service animals are welcome.
