We specialize in large (and small) group tours. So gather your family & friends together, and Let's Go!

We have a new tour, the Founder's Tour ("The wine bunch"). Check It Out!

Currently (February 2023), the wineries are open for small & LARGE groups with INDOOR tasting (+great covered OUTDOOR spaces with fire pit and/or heaters for your enjoyment.)"

Opt for something completely different, a tour of the Van Duzer or Lower Long Tom, in the South Willamette Valley.

What Sets Us Apart?
We offer a combination of AI, personal guide and AV narration, for a fully guided experience on all our full-service tours (Silver-amateur. Gold-connoisseur, and Diamond-haute couture). It's all accentuated by a variety of group-chosen podcasts**, tailored to your taste, which adds interest to the tour. Also, a big, roomy, luxury vehicle adds additional comfort for everyone. And our drivers are ALL CDL licensed. 25 years of Portland tours experience means we've thought of everything.
When you order from us, we do not use some kind of cookie cutter approach. We take everything you say into consideration, and spend a lot of time at it, to come up with our best itinerary. It may or may not be perfect, but it's our very best.
"When no one else can do it, or if you want the tour done right, even our competitors say, "Call My Chauffeur".
These are some of the things that set us apart."

Wintertime (Cellar Season) Touring

An easy stop while visiting wine country. November 2, 2022, was the 75th anniversary of the only flight of the “Spruce Goose,” the wooden aircraft with a 320-foot wingspan made famous — or infamous — by Howard Hughes. The “flying boat” is now housed here in Oregon, at the Evergreen Aviation and Space Museum in McMinnville, and is definitely worth a visit. Put your tray tables up and return your seatbacks to their full and upright positions...

In about a few years from now (3-10 projected), we will be in the year 1471, when the War of the Roses Edward IV defeated Henry VI; the Battle of Tewkesbury and the final battle between Lancaster and York occurred; and exactly 491 years before my b-day, Edward IV of the House of York entered London victorious!" The answer to this riddle will be with your final tour confirmation.
