Livermore Wine Trolley

Tours started promptly at 11am and our tour guide and driver, George is awesome!We visited three vineyards, two with pairings. We were supplied with plenty of bottled water and fun music.Everyone started the tour as strangers but ended as friends. Such a fun experience!

Holiday Lights of Livermore Tour:Just be sure you know what this event is. Some people really enjoy a raucous, party bus atmosphere. If that's you, this is probably a good bet - it started & ended approximately on time and did include the wine tasting and a bus tour of holiday lights, as advertised. Unfortunately, we were hoping for a fun, light-hearted way to feel the holiday spirit and see all the amazing decorated homes in Livermore. Unfortunately it was a raunchy, loud and regrettable experience. Many of the people on the bus seemed to be reliving their teenage house party days and the driver was encouraging it. We couldn't hear the holiday music over the shouts of some of the people regarding various body parts, a need to relieve themselves, and other very much non-holiday, feel good related behavior.While the decorations on the houses were amazing, the driver and his "maintenance guy" who just sat next to him drinking the entire ride didn't say anything to try and reduce the volume of the not-in-the-holiday-spirit noise and behavior and in fact encouraged it in some cases. We truly felt trapped and let down by what we had hoped to be a fun experience.

Fernando was the best driver ever. Best day ever. My friends 40th and just the best day. If you don't get Fernando I can't say it's as much fun but he's the best and the wines were great

George was our driver for the Family Lights night. He did an amazing job and had fun commentary the whole ride. He had the perfect Christmas tunes and did a great job pointing out what to look at. We went last year and had fun but this experience was a lot better and way more fun! Can we request him for next year?

We loved the trolley ride with Fernando. Its was the most fun. He was amazing. The wine was great.

Incredible experience! Worth, every penny, this is one of the best wine tours I've taken in California, let alone in Livermore. Me and my husband took the Sip & Savor Wine Pairing Tour - starting at Las Positas Vineyards. Our guide and driver Fernando was incredible, we stopped at three wineries, and every single winery gave us lots of wine and delicious bites. The first stop was at Las Positas Vineyard, where we got to experience a wine tree and a beautiful, charcuterie platter. They also offered us 20% off our wine purchases just for comingfrom the wine trolley! Our second stop was to Concannon winery where we sat in their barrel room and we had a little charcuterie box to go. We also had a 15% discount on wine purchases. The last stop was to Garre in a private tasting room. We were greeted with bubbly and the pourer was incredibly sweet, named Danielle! The wine trolley is completely enclosed so rain or shine, you can stay warm. Fernando passes out water between each stop and he also holds your wine in the front so you don't have to worry about holding it. For the ticket price, this was well worth it to have such a high-level of service, so much wine and food, discounts for wine purchases, safe transportation, and not to mention, they played some incredible music on the trolley! Sometimes you don't know what to expect since you are with other people you have never met before, but everyone was so nice! We met some really awesome people who we exchanged phone numbers with. The other patrons who joined were really fun, respectful, and enjoyable to spend time with! We are definitely booking another tour! Book early because they fill up fast.

Fernando was wonderful! He was welcoming, provided everyone water, offered to hold the wine or personal belongings while we did our tastings. He took pictures for us and put on some great music! We had a great time celebrating our friend's birthday! Thanks so much Fernando!

We went to three wineries on our tour. The tour driver was great, he spoke a little at each place we stopped. The music on the trolley was nice too. The driver gave us a small bottle of water after we boarded the trolley between stops. The food pairings were good at first and second stop but amazing at the last stop. This is our opinion though yours may vary depending on your taste buds. We personally our not fans of white wine but two wineries really had excellent Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot. We bought three bottles of Cabernet, and one bottle of Merlot. Overall it was a very nice day trip and lasted just past 4 hours. With the price averaging $50 per person per winery I must say only our last stop seemed worth the price. It had the largest flight of wines with the largest pour in each glass. They even offered us the option to try others wines which we did try the Merlot and bought it. They also had the largest portion of food pairings. I would recommend that you try it, everyone should try it at least once as it is a unique experience and enjoyable.

Amazing, fun, and creative experience! Our driver, Fernando, was fantastic and hilarious and was the highlight of the day. Would recommend!

Had a great time for Valentines weekend. Something new to try. Met some great people, good wine and fantastic food!
