People Love our Hill Country Wine Tours!

My family and I celebrated my birthday with a wine tour in Hill Country set up by Austin Detours. We had a fabulous time. They picked us up at our hotel in a Mercedes van and our driver Nick was entertaining and knowledgeable about the vineyards and Hill Country. Kyla was very accommodating to our specific requests. Very professional tour group. Highly recommend.

I took my mom on the Hill Country BBQ & Wine tour back in early May and we had a blast! Kelty was our amazing tour guide and made the trip so fun. We had some amazing BBQ at Salt Lick and tasted so many great wines at the 2 wineries we visited. I highly recommend this trip if you are looking for something to do outside of the hustle and bustle of the city.

Calling All Wine Lovers to Our Hill Country Wine Tour!

Love wine but don’t want to pay high prices for a private wine tour? This is the one for you! Our Austin/Hill Country Wine Shuttle takes you on a journey to see the beautiful variety Austin has to offer, both geographically and of course, in our amazing wine.

Ride comfortably in our luxury Mercedes Sprinter van with a knowledgeable and friendly local guide. Cruise through the scenic Texas Hill Country and stop at two (2) different award-winning wineries for tastings, then finish up back in Austin proper at your final winery in the St. Elmo Arts District. We’ll take care of the reservations at the wineries, you take care of the tastings. We can lead you to our wineries, but we can’t make you drink. Tastings at any of our wineries are completely optional but highly recommended. Please note that each tasting costs $20-25 plus tax/gratuity (paid directly at the wineries).
