Your driver will need about 20 minutes to accomplish the pre-trip tasks (view/collect the required documents (mentioned above), familiarize himself with your vehicle, accomplish the vehicle tasks, and get ready for the trip.)

*”No-Appt” wineries recommend, but do not require appointments, for small groups. Walk-ins are welcome if they have space and staff available.
Here’s How It Works - If a winery is not available because there's no seating or staff available, we'll go on to the next one.* If you chose the ‘Recession Wine Tour’ Driver Only, you will decide where to go next. So you will have to be ok with going from winery to winery, as needed. For small groups - 5-6 ppl or less.
*If you want a guaranteed seating, you must make an appointment.
