Ike and Wallace were amazing guides. Recommended great places in Austin, told many jokes and created our “guess whos song” playlist! Made the drive very memorable and treated us like family! - Estrada Flores Group

Amazing Wine and BBQ Tour

Published on Jan, 2025

The tour guides Ike and Wallace were amazing! Cheery, knowledgeable and outgoing. On our way to the wine tour we learned about the history of Texas’ wines and on the drive back we had a playlist with a twist; we had to guess who chose the song. It was so easy to get along and interact with other people. Shuttle bus was also clean and spacious. Highly recommended all the way from HOUSTON, TX!!!
