We offer flexible pickup options throughout the North Fork, including Greenport, Riverhead, Mattituck, Cutchogue, and surrounding areas. Private tours can arrange pickup from your hotel, vacation rental, or residence. Specific pickup details are confirmed at booking.
Most winery tours run 5-6 hours, brewery tours 4-5 hours, and private group experiences can range from 4-8 hours depending on your preferences. Full-day custom experiences are also available.
Bring a valid ID (21+ required), comfortable shoes for walking vineyards, weather-appropriate clothing, and a camera. We recommend bringing a credit card for additional purchases at venues. Water and light snacks are provided in the vehicle.
Absolutely! Many venues offer non-alcoholic options, beautiful grounds to explore, and food pairings. Non-drinkers still enjoy the scenic drives, vineyard tours, and social atmosphere. Let us know when booking so we can coordinate with venues.
How far in advance should I book?
We recommend booking at least 2-3 weeks in advance for public tours and 3-4 weeks for private group events, especially during peak season (May-October). Last-minute bookings are sometimes available—contact us to check!

Yes! Gift certificates are available in any denomination and make perfect presents for birthdays, anniversaries, holidays, or corporate gifts. They never expire and can be used toward any tour. Contact us to purchase.
Can we choose our own wineries or breweries?
Absolutely! Private tours offer full customization of your stops. For public tours, we select exceptional venues based on availability, guest preferences, and seasonal highlights. We’re happy to accommodate special requests when possible.
How many stops are included?
Standard winery tours typically visit 3-4 vineyards, brewery tours 3-4 breweries, and combo experiences 2-3 of each. Private tours can adjust the pace and number of stops based on your group’s preferences.
Do tours include food?
Food is not typically included unless specified. Many venues offer cheese boards, small plates, or full dining options available for purchase. We can recommend excellent lunch spots and help coordinate food stops on private tours.
What is the difference between public and private tours?
Public tours are shared experiences where you may join other guests, with set itineraries and dates. Private tours are exclusively for your group with customizable stops, flexible timing, and personalized service. Private tours are ideal for celebrations and corporate events.
Can we do a winery and brewery combo tour?
Yes! Our combo experiences are increasingly popular. Visit 2-3 wineries followed by 1-2 breweries, or customize your own mix. These tours run longer (6-7 hours) and offer the full spectrum of North Fork craft beverages.
What is your cancellation policy?
Cancellations made 7+ days before your tour receive a full refund. Cancellations 3-6 days prior receive a 50% refund. Cancellations within 48 hours are non-refundable but can be rescheduled once within 30 days, subject to availability.
What happens if it rains?
Tours run rain or shine! Most venues have indoor tasting rooms and covered areas. In case of severe weather, we’ll work with you to reschedule or modify the itinerary. Your safety and comfort are our priority.
What is the minimum age requirement?
Guests must be 21+ to participate in alcohol tastings. However, guests under 21 are welcome on private tours with advance notice. We can arrange non-alcoholic alternatives and ensure venues accommodate all ages appropriately.
Do you accommodate dietary restrictions?
While we don’t provide food directly, we can recommend venues with excellent vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, and allergy-friendly options. Please inform us of any restrictions when booking so we can plan accordingly.
Is gratuity included?
Gratuity for your driver is not included but greatly appreciated. A 15-20% tip is customary for excellent service. You can add gratuity during checkout or provide it directly to your driver at the end of your tour.
