- Exclusive Winery Perks and Discounts: Christian, the owner of Vineyard Voyages, has personally negotiated special extras and discounts at each of the wineries we visit, offering you a better value and more upscale experience than visiting on your own. These may include welcome sips, complimentary pours of unique wines, guided tours of the winery, and discounts on glass and bottle purchases for takeaway.

Please note that the Vineyard Voyages Explorer ticket does not include the cost of wine tastings at the wineries, allowing you the flexibility to choose and pay for your own selections at each location.
You also have the option to purchase add-ons during booking, such as our hydration package and Vineyard Voyages logo wine tumbler, for an additional cost.
Tastings/Flights range from $14 – $35 depending on the winery. You can also purchase wine by the glass or bottle at each winery!
We recommend you bring comfortable, smart casual clothing. Keep in mind the weather for the day and that our bus is air-conditioned. Comfy shoes will help you stay comfortable as you stroll along the wineries. Bring a power plug and cable to keep your phone charged, a bottle of water, and snacks to keep you hydrated and keep the hunger pangs away.

But if extenuating circumstances arise, like lack of guide/bus availability or lack of guests, we may have to cancel and will let you know as soon as possible.
