This tour really exceeded... - This tour really exceeded all our expectations having been on several other wine tours in various countries. Our guide Kelty was the best. She was extremely knowledgeable about wine and Austin of course, but she also made the tour lots of fun. Don’t miss this one if you’re visiting Austin.

Great half day outing to visit wonderful wineries. - Our guide David was very engaging and set a great tone to start the tour. Three stops, two wineries in Driftwood and one back in Austin. A very fun way to get out of the city and enjoy an afternoon in beautiful scenery. Staff at both wineries very friendly and welcoming. Good options for tastings or enjoying a glass of wine.

I recommend this wine tour! - If you like wine, I highly recommend this tour. We had a fun day with David, our excellent tour guide! He took us to two wineries outside of the city and a wine tasting room that was in a cute area with other restaurants, breweries, and food trucks. David not only gave general recommendations to our group but he wrote down personal recommendations for each individual - a very nice touch. He’s great at his job and will make sure you enjoy your time on the tour.

Half Day Hill Country Wine Tour exceeded expectations - I had such a great time on the Half Day Hill Country Wine Tour. The tour was way more fun than I expected and felt relaxed, engaging, and well organized. Our guide, Evan Ford, was outstanding. He masterfully managed a group of complete strangers, and by the end of the tour we felt like family, complete with our own inside jokes. Evan’s enthusiasm really stood out, and he came across as genuine and authentic. It never felt like he was trying to sell us on anything. He took the time to get to know each of us, remembered everyone’s names, offered snacks and water, and shared personalized suggestions for other things to do in Austin.
Each winery was unique and memorable. One offered a great view of the Hill Country, while another included a mini tour of the wine making process, which added a great educational touch. As a fun bonus, we even got to see a longhorn along the way. Overall, this tour exceeded my expectations, and I would absolutely recommend it to anyone visiting the area.

A great tour through... - A great tour through Austin's nearby wineries. The guide, Joey, was super knowledgeable and gave everyone individual recommendations on what to check out in the city based on our personality. Wineries had pretty decent wines - based on the ones we went to, I'd recommend sticking to drier whites. If you like bold reds, it might be a pass. If you're just looking for some fun and drinks (with a DD) this would be perfect.

Such a Perfect Girls’ Weekend Experience! - We booked the Half Day Hill Country Wine Shuttle for our girls’ trip, and it was exactly what we needed! The whole experience was smooth, fun, and super relaxing. The shuttle was comfortable, the schedule was well-organized, and we never felt rushed at any of the stops. Each winery had great wine selections, beautiful views, and friendly staff.
Our driver was amazing—super helpful, knowledgeable, and kept the vibes fun the entire time. It felt like the perfect balance of tasting, laughing, taking pictures, and just enjoying the day without worrying about driving or planning anything.
If you’re looking for a stress-free, memorable way to enjoy Hill Country with your besties, this is it. We’ll definitely book again! 🍷💖✨
