Question 1

Is a driver-drives-your-car service legal?

Accepted Answer

Yes — and it's popular because of the savings. It's a well-established model in wine country and the reason our rates are about half of what a limo or tour van charges.

Question 2

What about insurance?

Accepted Answer

We carry a commercial policy specifically written to cover our drivers operating guest-provided vehicles. Our policy is first in line for any claim — you're not relying on your personal auto insurance.

Question 3

Will the driver follow our itinerary?

Accepted Answer

Yes. You plan the day and we drive it. Most guests build their own list of wineries and stops, and your driver handles the routing, timing, and parking.

Question 4

Do you plan tours or make reservations?

Accepted Answer

No. We're a driving service only — we don't plan itineraries or book tastings. Most people prefer planning their own day anyway, and it keeps your cost down.

Question 5

What about a limo?

Accepted Answer

What's cool is saving money. Wine tasting is Wine Country Casual. Your own car is more comfortable, about half the price, and doesn't scream "tourist" when you pull up.

Question 6

How much does it cost?

Accepted Answer

$50 per hour paid in cash, or $55 per hour by card or another payment method. Six-hour minimum, with all fees and taxes included. Gratuity is additional.

Question 7

What's your cancellation policy?

Accepted Answer

72 hours' notice, no questions asked. Inside 72 hours we'll do everything we can to reschedule you rather than charge — just let us know as early as you can.

Question 8

What areas do you serve?

Accepted Answer

All of Napa Valley (Napa, Yountville, Oakville, Rutherford, St. Helena, Calistoga) and Sonoma (Sonoma, Glen Ellen, Kenwood, Santa Rosa, Healdsburg). Pickup from hotels, B&Bs, and vacation rentals throughout both valleys.

Question 9

What are your hours?

Accepted Answer

Open 7 days a week, 5:00 AM to 9:00 PM. Early airport pickups and late dinners both fit inside that window.

Question 10

How big a group can you handle?

Accepted Answer

Anything up to eight guests fits in most SUVs. Groups of nine or more — mention it on the quote form and we'll arrange a driver for each vehicle in your caravan.

Question 11

How do I book?

Accepted Answer

Fill out the quote form with your date, group size, and pickup address. We'll confirm availability and your rate, usually the same day.
