The month of March is a wonderful time to visit the wineries because it isn’t typically bitter cold and the wineries are still pretty slow and able to chat with guests more! There are a few events going on along the wine trails through March:
Seneca Lake offers Winter Warm Up and Wine the weekend of March 8th-10th! Wineries pair up hearty food dishes with some of their best sellers. The Seneca Lake Wine and Experience Auction is set for March 22nd where you will have the opportunity to bid and win different experiences at local wineries, restaurants and other venues.
Cayuga Lake’s big event, Bacon on the Lakein is set for the weekend of March 9th-10th. If Bacon is your favorite food group this is the event for you! Wineries pair up bacon inspired foods with their wines, the entire wine trail smells amazing.
All of the events still have tickets available and we still have space available for bookings. As always, we look forward to seeing you soon!
We have the glasses!!!! For all of you touring with us over the period of the Total Solar Eclipse, we have eyeglasses for you for viewing. The driver will give them to each person in the party.
Offering tours the entire weekend, April 5-8, 2024. Get one of the best views of the total eclipse! Special give-away to our guests. Information is also on our website. Check out drop down menu in header for full details!
In case you haven’t heard, the Geneva area will be in the path of totality at 3:22 pm. This is a once in a lifetime experience so don’t miss your opportunity! Tours are booking fast for that weekend and when you are touring with us anytime from April 5th to April 8th, we will supply your whole party with glasses for viewing the solar eclipse! There are many events around the Finger Lakes to attend that weekend as well and you can check out www.eclipsegeneva.com for more information. Cayuga Lake Wine Trail has an event that weekend called Sips to the Eclipse, and you can find more details for that on the Cayuga Lake Wine Trail website. We hope that you will join us for this unforgettable experience!!
Sometimes, it is important to save some money and still have a great time. We understand that, so we offer you an alternative to traveling in one of our vehicles. We can put one of our drivers in your car to take your group. Rates begin at $45.00 per hour with a minimum of 4 hours. Rate is determined by the distance we need to travel from our base to your pickup location. Give us a call to find out more.
We are fully insured to drive your car. We wouldn’t have it any other way!
Remember, we pick up strangers and return friends.

After some figuring, we have come up with an all-inclusive tour package for groups of two and four! Still all the benefits of a private tour with the added flexibility of not having to figure out where to go for lunch or winery visits, available Monday through Thursday ONLY due to the wineries getting busy on the weekends and it is hard to judge timing. Each package includes the base tour price, tax and tasting fees plus a voucher for lunch! Currently offering just Seneca Lake all-inclusives while we figure out all the kinks BUT hopefully expanding to the other lakes by June 2023! Please contact Nicole at 315-585-9599 or nicole@grapevinecountrytours.com for more details and to book today!
With the rising cost of gasoline, we need to make some changes to our pricing structure.
If you are staying on the lake you plan to tour, the cost is as quoted.
If you are visiting wineries and breweries on one lake while being picked up on another, there will be a gasoline surcharge added to your tour cost.
The best thing to do is book your lodging reservations near the lake you wish to visit.
Thank you for understanding.
