This is NOT the cheap watered down 3 stop rushed economy bus tour with just a driver, this is VIP in one of our luxury SUV's with real wine experts and recommendations. Leave the driving to your guide and enjoy wines at 4 wineries, with the option to buy flights, wine by the glass, or bottles. Wine Samples ARE included, Tastings, wines, and food are not included in the price of the tour. Other groups may be on the tour - semi-private. We combine groups of couples, groups of 6-7 most likely will have a private GMC Yukon.
On the Leelanau Peninsula, where Traverse City wine country meets a Napa Valley feel, you’ll relax while the driver takes care of the road. You’ll sip and savour at three wineries and enjoy stunning views along the way. As you move between vineyards, your guide — a Leelanau wine expert rather than a bus driver — will offer drink recommendations and local context. The operator presents this as a Scenic View AND Drink Recommendation Tour aimed at a more intimate wine experience.
The tour is offered by Movie Stars Wine Tours and is presented as providing 5-star Movie Star customer service. You’ll travel in luxury SUVs rather than large coaches, and the guides have run this Leelanau Peninsula wine tour for more than five years. The outing finishes with food at the That’sa Pizza N Long Lake location, and you may be dropped off at the original pickup point or downtown Traverse City near a restaurant or bar. Tastings, wines and food are not included in the tour price.
