Why it works this way
- Why a bus instead of driving. Loudoun County wineries sit on rural roads about 45 to 75 minutes from DC, with nothing walkable between them, and rideshare pickups from remote wineries are unreliable. On a bus, nobody in your group has to be the designated driver.
- Why we hold the reservations. Many wineries require reservations for weekend tastings and for groups. We book the seating at all three stops before you arrive.
- Why West Falls Church. It is on Metro's Orange Line, about 22 minutes from Metro Center, so you can ride in from the city instead of driving to wine country. WMATA says parking at its lots is free on weekends and federal holidays for Metro riders.
- Explorer or Connoisseur. Choose Explorer if someone in your group is not drinking or you want to pick tastings on the spot. Choose Connoisseur if you want a tasting ready at every stop without ordering or paying at each winery.
- Scheduled or private. Up to 9 guests, the scheduled tour is the simplest and lowest-cost option. At 10 or more, a private tour adds pickup at your door and your choice of wineries, from $150 per guest.
