Service details are below.

 Full-Service  - $69-$89 pp base cost for 4-8 hrs.  4 person minimum; couples special is 10% off (see below). 

For our full-service option, My Chauffeur does all the planning, preparations and tour execution to ensure your tour is a success.  All you need to do is be at the pickup location.  When you ring to make your booking, just let us know what your wine tour requirements (interests) are, if any, and we will do the rest for you.  Bottom line - WE are ultimately responsible for the success of your tour.

For the full-service option, we offer:

A personal tour concierge  - taking care of everything from beginning to end.  Winery appts, winery facility tour appts (if facility tour is requested), tour planning/preparations and all else is taken care of. Your private concierge is always available by phone or email to discuss your tour with you.

A personal full-service lunch concierge - taking care of lunches, ordering, planning, set-up etc. Everything from beginning to end.  All you have to do is take a look at the menu's and tell us what you want, or give us a call to discuss.  If you leave the menu item choices to us, we will try to supply a well rounded selection of various items (sandwiches etc.) or you may give us 'general directives' to follow with the selections.  Restaurant's & BYO are also an option. Your private lunch concierge is always available by phone or email to discuss your tour lunches with you.

A private Tour Guide - a partial tour guide (default) is available automatically.  Or a fully guided service may be available, on request, at additional cost. Your chauffeur/tour guide is always available during your tour to discuss anything with you.

Your route selection can be determined by us, or you may decide, your choice - A comprehensive list of wineries with 11 route suggestions is available to be viewed if desired.  We also give you additional information about the wineries and tour. My Chauffeur monitors the wineries and offers up-to-date information not easily accessible to the public.  Additional winery info includes such things as, but not limited to, which wineries:

are open by appt only.

are open only on the Thanksgiving/Memorial Day weekends.

are tasting rooms only; non-vineyard locations.

offer facility tours; and the best facility tours.

offer 'heavy reds'.

produce organic and/or biodynamic wines.

have a restaurant.

Winery events info (what's happening at the wineries on the day you are going down).

To view the list of wineries, route suggestions, events and other info is entirely up to you.  For our full-service tour, you only need to look into this information if you choose to.  To view pricing details for this option, click here.

 Last-Minute-Special  - $50-$80 pp for 4-8 hours.  2 person minimum cost. 

Give us a call the day before (5-8pm) or the morning of your tour date (7am-12pm) and take advantage of our discounted last-minute-special, with a 2 person minimum.

 'Recession Wine Tour'  - $50-$110/hour, for 1-14 ppl.  Additional costs apply with additional ppl.

 If you do not need all the planning & preparations done for you, then we offer the discounted 'Recession Wine Tour', primarily discounted for larger groups.  For this option, although our tour staff is available by phone or email to discuss your tour with you; your group is responsible for all the planning and preparations (making winery appts. if necessary etc.) for your tour.  No tour concierge, lunch concierge or tour guide are available.  We offer the 'driver & limo only'.  Bottom line - YOU are ultimately responsible for the success of your tour.

With the 'Recession Wine Tour', we offer with your tour confirmation:

A comprehensive list of wineries with route suggestions.  We also give you additional information about the wineries and tour, available automatically to view if desired. My Chauffeur monitors the wineries and offers up-to-date information not easily accessible to the public.  Additional winery info includes such things as, but not limited to, which wineries:

are open by appt only.

are open only on the Thanksgiving/Memorial Day weekends.

are tasting rooms only; non-vineyard locations.

offer facility tours; the best facility tours.

offer 'heavy reds'.

Winery route suggestions (11 different route suggestions including the 'Recession route'!).

Winery events info (what's happening at the wineries on the day you are going down).

For our 'Recession Wine Tour', since there is not a concierge option, and winery appointments may be necessary, this would be your groups responsibility.  FYI - for most wineries, as a general rule, any groups over 8 require an appointment.  But winery rules vary vastly, and you should contact each winery separately to find out their specific requirements.  To view pricing details for this option, click here.
