Sorta wedding related, wine tours.....
I am looking to plan a wine excursion bachelorette party for my friend. Can anyone recommend a tour group that they went through for a bach party or other event??????
We are probably looking to have about 10 people and the event will be in late October.
Thanks for any recommendations!!!!!!

Re: Sorta wedding related, wine tours.....
I did this for my best friend when she got married two years ago. I just rented a limo and picked the wineries that she liked the best, I also tried to pick the ones that did free tastings to help save money for all of us.
You can go to the website below and this will show you a map of the vineyards and you can also get event information, etc....
Be warned that some vineyards did charge us even though they were normally a free vineyard since we were over 6 people. That annoyed me, and we tried to break up into little groups so this didn't happen often.
HTH!!

Re: Sorta wedding related, wine tours.....
We did the private tour/tasting at Martha Clara Vineyards for my Bachelorette Party. We were 10 girls. They take you to a private upstairs bar where you take some different wines and have a few snacks and then we went on a horse and carriage tour around the winery. It was really fun and everyone had a great time! My SIL had called them to set it up.

Thanks ladies for the responses.
Would either of you be able to give me an estimate on the costs??
Between tour, wineries, transportation etc.....?

I think it was about $200 for a group of 10.

Re: Sorta wedding related, wine tours.....
If I am remembering right it cost between $150-$175 a person. It was like $80 each for a 10 person limo and then dinner around $40 each and paying for a few tastings...plus we brought a cooler with snacks, cheese, crackers, fruits, veggies which everyone contributed to and we bought a few bottles at one of the vineyards and hung out....
