In addition to offering you comfortable vacation rental homes throughout the region, we also offer private wine tours, so all you have to do is sit back and enjoy our favorite Texas Hill Country wineries.
Let’s dive into why Fredericksburg Texas is the wine tour destination you’ve been looking for to discover the best wineries and vineyards in the area.
Why a Fredericksburg Wine Tour is a Must
Fredericksburg is the heart of Texas Wine Country, which means there’s no shortage of unique places to explore. Leave the planning to someone else by reserving your spot on a local tour with us at Cozi Vacation Rentals.
While it’s certainly possible to visit these wineries and vineyards on your own, you’ll have to keep in mind a few things:
- You can’t fully indulge in the wine-tasting experience if you’re driving
- You’ll most likely be in crowded tour groups and won’t get 1 on 1 attention with winemakers
- You’ll have to spend precious vacation time planning where you’ll go and how you’ll get there
To take all of those three worries out of your head, we offer a private wine tour with door-to-door pickup and drop-off for our guests. Your tour will take you to three boutique wineries with private wine tastings and a delicious lunch.
