Here at Grapevine Country Tours, YOU are our priority. Private tours for just your group and our driver are what we offer, no group tours. The experience that you have with us is catered to what you like and what you want, not where we want to take you. Every tour is different, based on your preferences of beverages and atmosphere. Whether you choose Seneca, Keuka or Cayuga Lake, our drivers will make sure you have the best day ever!
Speaking of drivers, did you know you may choose your own driver? On our website under ‘The Experience’ and then ‘Our Drivers’, we have a little blurb about all of our drivers so that you and your group can choose who is best suited for you. All of our drivers are also guides on the area for any questions you may have as far as the history of this beautiful region.
We look forward to touring with you!
