Ruby Tour
1:30pm - Daily Visit 3 wineries Includes all tasting fees
The Ruby Tour is our most popular tour. Taste wine at three wineries in the Texas Hill Country. We start the tour at 1:30pm, allowing guests time to sleep late, enjoy a leisurely breakfast, eat lunch, and visit the many boutique shops on Main Street, Fredericksburg, all before a wonderful afternoon filled with sipping wine at three of our beautiful wineries. We’ll usually have you back between 5:30pm and 6:30pm so you can make your dinner plans in plenty of time.
We pick everyone up from their hotel’s or B&B’s and then take off for the Hill Country Wine Trail. All tasting fees are include included in the package and guests may find a light afternoon snack available for purchase at some of the wineries. Our group tours are a great way to spend an afternoon meeting new people and making new friends. Private tours are available for groups looking to do something on their own, and you can call to discuss the available options, but group tours really are a fun and dynamic experience. The groups stay together for the entire tour and your guide will be right there to assist you along the way.
We begin at each winery with a wine tasting, usually consisting of a sample of 5 or 6 wines, and as guests finish their individual tastings, they often spend a little time browsing around gift shops, picking out bottles of wine, or purchasing a glass of wine to sit and be social, while enjoying the ambiance of the venue. Live music is offered at many local wineries on Saturdays and holidays, and depending on the venue, the music can range from a soulful soloists or a fun duet, to a full band bringing everyone to their feet to dance and celebrate.
After folks have had a little time to enjoy the atmosphere at each winery, your guide will round up everyone up and get back on the road toward the next great destination.
