So it turns out they double charged because they didn't take pending payments into consideration. They also charged me for an extra person and take a day to respond to emails as I'm still awaiting to hear back about something as simple as charging me for too many people. All in all just be aware that you will get better bang for the buck by going through a limo company yourself and calling the breweries (which are listed on their website) yourself. Do not purchase the samples for $30 a person beforehand too because the flight at the first brewery was $10 and the second was $8. Super awesome breweries though that I can't wait to go back to! read more

We just had a brewery tour through the company on November 8th and were charged twice. I called and left messages without any response. I kept calling and it was to no avail! I had to call pretending to book a new tour just to finally get ahold of someone and demand a refund. They finally did refund the money and the overdraft fee incurred, but the stress and hassle was not worth it. read more

If I can describe OC Brewery Tours in one word, it would have to be quality. From the limousine pickups to the tours themselves. We had called Ryan to set up a tour for me and 10 of my closest friends for my birthday to do a tour of Orange County Breweries. We were picked at 12 Noon on the dot. The limousine was chilled to a perfect 75 degrees, and even an auxiliary cord to plug in our music for the limousine. Our 1 o'clock appointment at Four Sons Brewery in Huntington Beach was insane! Once we were there, we were given a grand tour of this local brewery. Tried the beers in samples and had a good time. Took plenty of pictures and the girls were happy. From there, we went to Barley Forge in Costa Mesa. Within the first 10 minutes, the bartenders had our sample shooters ready with some delectable food samples. Was very pleased at this point to say the least. Played connect four and cards at the brewery. After an hour or so of this brewery, we went to our next and last stop at Bootleggers!! All in all, I was very pleased with my experience and would definitely recommend Ryan and his team for an unforgettable experience, will definitely be rebooking for my birthday next year. To Ryan and his team, thank you so much for an awesome experience and for a time that I will not soon forget. Your precessionalism and dedication to your company truly shows. Worth every penny. read more

My sister and I had a blast visiting some of Orange County's best craft breweries selected by Ryan of Brewery Tours of Orange County. His service was professional and he went above and beyond guiding us through our beer tasting experience. I highly recommend his tours! read more

OC Brewery Tours - Beer Tours Near Me - Newport Beach, California

Highly highly highly recommended! For any orange country natives, we all know weekends can get boring and there isn't a ton to do unless you go to LA or SD but this was something new and different and seriously SO MUCH FUN! I haven't found anything like it in Orange County. Everything from the experience of the limo that drove us around, to the quality of the beers at the breweries, to the excellent service given by our limo driver, John, and the owner, Ryan.... It was all amazing. Me and all my girlfriends went for a birthday celebration and we couldn't have had better things to say about this tour. Easy, affordable, and the best way to spend your weekend (or any weekday for that matter). Can't wait to go again! read more

Basically this is a glorified uber. I booked this to surprise my husband for his birthday. Our reservation was for a group of four. Upon payment it tells you it averages to $120 per person because we added the additional tour and the mug. I was so excited. Limo arrived and it seemed promising. Arrived at the first brewery (Four sons brewery) and they not only weren't expecting us, but the kicker-- you have to pay for your beer flights there. What the....? Obviously confused, we called Ryan at OC Brewing Tours and yes, that is correct, you pay additional money for the actual beer. They prefer not to consider themselves an upscale uber, but that is exactly what they are. Even the person we talked to at Four sons said he hates this company because people always come in with false expectations of how it works. You're paying $120 PER PERSON to take a limo is basically what this all boils down to. Such a disappointment. read more

FYI**Had to edit my original review in order to post my second response. And Hopefully one day you will become an honest person and actually state facts rather than lies something that customers appreciate. 1- It was not a week prior it was Wednesday when I had said I only had 7 so far, that is only 3 days before which we still had the rest of the evening to get the total of 15 that I had RSVP'd for, specific time is not mentioned on your website or anywhere. Look into putting it on your website, it will save you another headache and possibly a lawsuit. 2- I did not arrive 30 mins. late, you and I had an agreement that it would start from 6:30 rather than 6 and I showed up at 6:15 and all of my guest showed up at 6 to surprise the bday boy. 3- Yes of course I cursed at you, what did you expect from a frustrated customer. Yes maybe not everyone curses but Ryan if you are running a company that offers customer service than you are not cut out for this, you will need a stronger back bone to deal with customers.. plus I apologized. 4- Highly intoxicated? I believe you were not there to judge that in person but if so isn't that the point of going to a brewery? So now you're judging your clients? I'm sure they are excited to find that out. 5- Embarrassed of the rowdy group? Once again you were not there, the limo driver did not seem to think we were embarrassing as a matter of fact he kept apologizing for having us to deal with you. They did offer their cell phone number for future services. If we were so embarrassing like you said I'm sure they would not offer future services to an embarrassing group. If customer service is so important to you than check the RSVP website, please update your website because there is no point of going through the RSVP link you provide. Call customers in advanced to make sure everything is set as plan. Although you did tell the limo company you had spoken to me earlier that day on Saturday to confirm details which once again that is a lie. Also add on your website to send you reminders like the one I sent you about what 3 breweries to schedule, man might as well drive our own limo or bus if this is the kind of "customer service" you are providing us with. You should rename your company to "DIY BREWERY TOURS" if that's the case. read more

I surprised a few of my girlfriends with an afternoon of beer tasting. We had a blast. We were shuttled around in a very upscale, clean, fun bus with great music. The brewery's we visited were fantastic. If your looking for a professional, upscale experience then book here. We had a great time & i highly recommend. read more

Best night ever! I booked a tour for my brother's bachelor party, and since I don't live in Orange County, it was the perfect way to plan a brewery hop. Ryan (the owner) was very helpful in the planning stage, and Jarred (our driver) showed us an amazing time! Plus, the limo was a very nice touch. A great deal for tourists looking to explore Orange County or locals who need a fun night out. read more

OC Brewery Tours - All of us in front of the limo - Beer Tours Near Me - Newport Beach, California

Did not have a chance to do the tour yet but wanted to give 5 stars for their customer service. Had a medial emergency come up and they were able to provide me a refund which was very appreciated. If the tour is as good as their customer service it will definitively be worth 5 stars. read more

It is a waste of money. For the amount they charged my group of 30, you would think that they would include a tour. The bus was also an executive bus which looks like a nice school, not a party bus which is half the fun. I cancelled my reservation and was able to book everything myself, and it was cheaper. read more

A few friends and I decided to have a fun night out! We were picked up by a nice limo and felt like rock stars! The breweries we went to were fantastic and tasty! Some of which we did not know existed! I would highly recommend this service to anyone new to craft beer or veterans alike! the best part is that you don't have to drive an enjoy a nice buzz. read more

OC Brewery Tours did a great job and showed our party a great time. Our driver bobby and the crew at the breweries really shined. We visited three breweries on the beach side of Orange County. 4 sons was the favourite spot for games and the other brewery in Hb showed us how the beer was made. The chocolate port at Barley Forge was delicious and definitely worth a stop. read more

Great Local find! Me and my buds have taken brewery tours in San Diego and I was ecstatic to find Ryan doing brewery tours here in Orange County. He picked us up from my place in Mission Viejo in a limo that was more than roomie for us bigger dudes. He took us to three breweries all tasting flights were included, we went to the brew in Placentia another in Orange and another in long beach. All in all it took about 5 hours and we had a great time! Definitely a must do if your a brew nut like us! read more

With the great reviews for OC Brewery Tours I had to give them a shot for my friends birthday! The other tour companies in the area required us to have a minimum of 8 people for a private tour and they didn't. Who wants to hang out with a bunch of drunk strangers??! No thanks! I'll stick with my friends. The limo that picked us up was early, and very clean, our driver Bobby was so nice right from the get go which is seriously a huge part to the tour. The breweries we're accommodating and we had a great time! read more

Took my staff out on a Brewery Tour. I chose OC Brewery Tours because their tours were private. We didnt really want to be on a bus with a bunch of loud other people. We wanted to be the loud ones solo. We visited two breweries in about 4 hours and man what a blast! Fun games, great beers and my staff had an awesome time. Thanks guys! read more

What a great birthday gift! I surprised by my fiends for my birthday. A limousine rolled up to the my friend's house and picked us up. Apparently this is part of the package. All 6 of us got in and started the tour. I didn't know it was a tour yet. I didn't know much about beer but I now I feel I do. We went to several breweries over a period of several hours. The time was filled with fun and friends and laughter, AND BEER! I don't usually drink, but this experience was great. We toured all around San Clemente at Left Coast Brewery and then Artifex? Brewery too. So many different flavors to taste, and we tasted them all. Most of this was included in the tour, and we wanted even more of the best beers, each to our taste. Because we tasted plenty, we knew just which one was the best for us. This was a really great experience. I'm glad that my friends booked it for us. I wasn't too sure when they first announced it in the limo because I don't drink often, but it turned out to be a really great birthday. And it's easy because we didn't have to worry about anything except enjoying my friends and the experience they planned for me. This is a great service for a birthday or even something simple like a weekend. read more

Went on my first brewery tour and it was amazing! Not only was Ryan an excellent guide who took us to awesome places, but he was personable and fun. We had an awesome time! I definitely recommend him for anyone who want to explore the unknown treasures of the OC! read more

Took another couple on a brewery tour with Brewery Tours Of OC as a thank you for their prior kindness. The limo picked us up at noon and took us to three great craft breweries in the Anaheim and Fullerton area. Very punctual, pleasant to deal with, and had just a fabulous day! I would definitely refer this service to anyone that wants to have a fun beer tasting kind of afternoon. Thank you Brewery Tours of Orange County! read more

My friends and I had such a great time. Ryan made everything so simple; ryan came and picked us up, gave great advice on what breweries where in the area and took care of everything. I will absolutely have ryan take care of our next adventure. read more

Booked tour for husbands birthday and I'm so glad I did. Everyone loved it. From the moment the limo pulled up to pick us up to the moment it dropped us off!! We toured in a nice newer limo that had cold drinks for us, driver was super friendly,honest and awesome personality. Aux cord was hooked up and ready for us to play our own playlist, which we had ready to blast. At all of our stops Ervin, our limo driver, got out to let the brewery know we had arrived and let us know what to expect. Every brewery had a table reserved for us which was a big deal since we toured on a busy day. (Friday evening, St. Patrick's day) Second brewery, brewbakers was my favorite! As we arrived they had dough for us to make our own soft pretzels, which they baked and we ate afterwards. They have card and board games available to play as we tasted different beers. We also ordered a pizza to eat. The third brewery was super busy, but they managed to save us a table and we all felt like VIP as everyone's eyes were on is as we arrived to our table. All in all we had a great time. Our guests kept saying how much fun they were having and keep trying to come up with ways to top this birthday celebration. read more

Living in Newport and growing up locally, I was surprised at how many bars/ breweries and wineries I have never even been to or even heard of. We started the adventure having some beers at Cruisers and set off to play some classic arcade games at the fun zone, ending with a ferris wheel ride to take in the views of the bay. The second stop was at Barley Forge Brewery in Costa Mesa where we sampled a flight of their best brews and a quick tour of the brewery and bottling room. Then we set off to Laguna Canyon Winery, and I cannot believe I have never been to this hidden gem. We got to see the process of them pressing grapes (all in house) and learned the steps of making wine as we sampled their most popular whites and reds in their oak barrel lined tasting room. We window shopped on our way to the last stop which was at The Cliff with a full ocean front view just in time to catch a breathtaking sunset. Ryan and his team created a flawless and fun experience for my boyfriend and I. We cannot wait to take another tour and bring all of our friends along to explore our own backyard! read more

I guess I'm one of the first to hear about Ryan and Brewery Tours of Orange County, my friends and I made up of both guys and girls wanted to go out on a brewery tour and Had only heard of tours in San Diego until I found this company on line. Ryan the owner of the company picked our group up in a black Lincoln limousine ( very nice ) with a good sound system so it made for a great ride. The limousine and craft brews were included in a per person price and we didn't have any time restrictions since Ryan owned the limousine, that was nice because when it came time to pay there were no surprises. Great Service, Great host, beautiful limousine and a kick ass time! read more

We had 12 very happy people. The bus arrived on time, it was clean and able to accommodate all of us without climbing in on our knees like a limo. We chose breweries other than those listed and they had no problem with our request. Some drank, some didn't, everybody loved the trip. read more
