Brewery & Distillery Tours Niagara

Don't let the name fool you, they do fantastic wine tours too! I had booked a day excursion for 6 of us. Rich was great to work with and met all our needs. A vehicle problem didn't stop him as he ensured our driver showed up on time and was ready to go! We had a great day. Our first call will always go to Rich at Brewery and Distillery Tours!

Dave was our tour guide for today and he was awesome!! It was just my wife and I, with 1 other couple. We went to Wayne Gretzky's, Small Talk, Oast, and finished off at The Exchange. When we return next summer we will definitely be back for another tour!

The best guided brewery & winery tour we have been on. I e-mailed Rich last minute to squeeze us in if he could on our last minute trip to Niagara Falls and he made it happen. Not only did he make it happen; we ended up having a private tour with the best host ever! Doug the man! Doug was our tour guide, picked us up at our hotel front door, and gave us a bunch of fun facts as well as little extras. Also give Doug props for being a professional cell phone photographer (made my girlfriend very happy). It would have been an ok tour but Doug made it amazing. Doug's candor and joking nature with all the brewery / winery hosts made it worth every penny. Would go again in a heartbeat if we were guaranteed Doug as the host. The tip was barely able to capture Doug's real value but it was everything I had in my wallet at the time; did not even get to convert it from US dollars. If Rich or Doug ever make their way down to Baltimore, MD; I hope they call me and I'll be their personal brewery / tour guide for the area. Great outfit and recommend it to everyone.

P.S. if you go to the Wayne Gretzky Winery.......try the cream whiskey....you won't regret it.

We had a great time. We went in mid January so the stops we went to where very quiet and had lots of time to educate us about their products. Our driver Doug was great and had lots of information about the area and industry. The vehicle was a new Mercedes Sprinter which was clean, well maintained and had proper winter tires on it to ensure safe travels.

I cannot thank Rich enough for the fantastic time he showed us (and a half dozen other pairs of drinkers) on our tour recently. I’ve been on quite a few wine tours over the years, and it does take a certain personality to be able to do it well – but Rich was able to entertain AND be personable. He was professional AND endearing. He was always engaged in what we thought of each stop, and his relationship with the people at the breweries/distilleries/wineries seemed genuine. And whether it was him or just the smaller size, It honestly felt like we were treated better, being a part of Rich’s group, then being in a group of 50 coming off a tour bus.
 
The stops were all great. I had some reservations about a few, but was honestly able to find something I loved at each location. Not to mention, the price is extremely competitive with all of the other tours I was researching. The van we were in was even fancy and brand new. If you’re looking for something just a little different than your standard wine tour, I cannot recommend them enough.
