A practical escape from Washington
The hard part of a winery day from DC is usually getting everyone there.
Loudoun County wine country is close enough for a day trip, but a self-planned outing can involve a rental car, multiple reservations, changing drivers, and expensive rides between rural properties. Vineyard Voyages turns those moving parts into one arranged day.
Board Once
Settle into professional group transportation instead of coordinating separate cars or repeated rideshares.
Visit Three Wineries
Follow the published Loudoun County route for the date, with pacing and transitions handled by the team.
Return to the Same Place
Finish the day back at West Falls Church Metro so the trip home is straightforward.
Important pickup detail
The Signature Scheduled Tour does not begin in downtown Washington. It meets at West Falls Church Metro in Virginia. Private experiences may be planned with custom pickup across the region when confirmed in the final proposal.

Times, wineries, food, tastings, and other inclusions depend on the selected date and ticket. Traffic and winery operations can affect the return time.
Choose how much is arranged
The transportation and route are handled either way.
Both scheduled-tour ticket types include round-trip transportation from West Falls Church, a three-winery route, and a Certified Tourism Ambassador guide. The distinction is whether the winery tastings are included.
Explorer
Choose this ticket when you want to decide what to purchase at each winery.
- Scheduled three-winery route

Connoisseur
Choose this ticket when you want one pre-selected tasting or flight arranged at each winery.

Current ticket prices, booking fees, direct-booking benefits, availability, and complete inclusions are shown in Xola. Review the selected option before checkout.
A look beyond the city
A DC wine tour should feel like a real day away.
The setting changes quickly once the group reaches Loudoun County: vineyard rows, mountain views, welcoming tasting rooms, and enough time to enjoy each stop.
Scheduled or private
Choose the pickup structure that fits your group.
The scheduled tour is the simplest choice for individuals, couples, and smaller groups who can meet at Metro. A private experience is the better fit when the group needs a custom pickup, its own vehicle, or a personalized itinerary.
