So much amazing wine!
Aundra U.

Rick was amazing. The right balance of involvement and letting us be free. He was thoughtful and supportive. Would 100% use him again!

My wife and I decided to do a very last-minute trip to Paso Robles. We reached out to Rick on Christmas Day and within a few hours he responded and had a set up for four VIP tastings. His driver Bryan met us in the lobby. We had a great experience and great conversation driving to all of the Wineries. He made reservations for all the stops and they are were exquisite. He is a must book if you're looking for an amazing experience when visiting Paso Robles.

What's better than to go wine tasting with someone else driving especially if that someone else is Rick. So knowledgeable and not only drives you but also sets up the wine tastings which is particularly helpful if you are new to Paso. He also gave some wonderful restaurant tips he knows the best places to get those special photos.

My mom & I were headed to Paso & trying to figure out the best way for transportation between the vineyards. With the spotty cell service, uber wouldn't be reliable. & since it was only the two of us, we didn't need a party bus or limo! We stumbled across Rick, gave him a call & are so thankful we did! I had a rough draft itinerary & Rick asked if he could adjust it and it turned out way better than we could've planned! He knows the area like the back of his hand, booked our reservations and kept us on track the whole day. Even provided water & snacks! He took photos for us, called restaurants when we wanted takeout after a long day of wine tastings. Look no further, he's your guy. He made the entire experience incredible & we cannot recommend him enough!

Rick was a great driver and host! He truly made our wine tasting day exceptional and it wouldn't have been the same without his knowledge, photography, and helpfulness! Thank you Rick!

Rick is the man. As long time paso enthusiasts, Rick made our weekend beyond incredible. He showed us new places, made sure we got to our favorites, and built out a perfectly planned two day itinerary. He went above and beyond. His wife's brownies she made might have been the best thing we ate all weekend. If you're debating booking a driver, save yourself time debating and book Rick.

How much is it?

I paid $30.00 an hour; our own car was driven by the wine driver.

We were…read morelooking into multiple shuttle service and this one was the most seamless & was super accommodating to us. Chris was our driver for the day and he came on time to pick us up. He was really great & friendly. He also was very knowledgeable about Paso Robles and answered every question that we had. There were 10 of us and we can be a little too much, but Chris was super patient with us. He went out of his way to go back to the last winery when one of the girls left her phone at there. Really appreciate him going the extra mile. The bride to be was also very happy with how everything turned out! For anyone looking to do a wine tour in Paso Robles, we highly recommend this place. If you could, also recommend Chris! He was amazing & more! Chris - thank you so much for putting up with us! We really appreciate your service today!

He worked with all my questions and gave a ton of recommendations based off what I was looking for. He gave great options for food and made all the reservations needed for the day. We were lucky enough to have Jed as our guide for the day. Pick up was on time and we went rolling on. He got us checked into the wineries and made sure we were settled and checked back to make sure we were on schedule. He was easy going even when we decided to cut the tour one winery short and grab coffee instead. He even called to cancel the reservation- super planned and thoughtful Would definitely book with Jed again if in the area.

Great value for the experience - plus, it was just the two of us with no one else joining us on the tour even though others could join, so it turned into a private experience for us! Michael was extremely personable, friendly and knowledgeable. We loved having someone so knowledgeable to show us around so we didn't have to drive ourselves. We visited three different wineries and they were all unique and interesting with a variety of wines. We visited Thacher (6 tastings plus a bonus pour of cider), Whalebone Winery (9 pours - wow!) and McPrice Myers (5 pours plus a bonus). Plus lunch, which was included in the price (sandwich and potato salad and cookie)!!! Great scenery and a beautiful day to enjoy our tastings booth inside and outside each winery. We also learned so much from each person serving us too. Michael also went out of his way to point out local restaurants and favorite bars and speakeasies in the area along the way. Finally, we left a sweater on the van and Michael called us to let us know and he drove back to return it to us. We really appreciated his kindness and great customer service. We had a great time and would definitely book with Grapeline Wine Tours again. Thank you so much Michael for a lovely day!!!!

Another thing our group really enjoyed was John being our paparazzi throughout the trip! We got really great shots from John.

The van felt like a luxurious treat! We were picked up and dropped back off at our hotel. If you are in the SLO or Paso area and are looking to get an incredible tour of wine country with your small group, you must book with John!

Beware! *** And be…read moresure to read owner's response to this review, then look at the screen shots of the emails that I received regarding their discriminatory practices, THEN decide if you want to trust these guys with your vacation time. No accountability, just anger, greed, and insults from owner. Jeez. Jason, read again what your employee sent me. That's not "downright untrue" or "slanderous" -- that's your staff, verbatim. And God forbid any paying customer -- solo or not -- has a problem with a wine tour, for we can see the level of cordiality, care, and accountability they'll encounter *** The Wine Line discriminates against solo travelers and refuses to do business with them unless you agree to a hefty solo supplement -- for a shared tour! I was once a happy repeat customer, but when trying to book last year, a representative told me, word for word (see emails in photos), this: "We are currently not servicing single passengers due to the work required... your patronage is simply untenable, financially." Wow, my patronage is simply untenable. That's straight up greed with a dose of haughty nastiness. I've never heard anything like that before, ever, from any business, and I've dealt with some truly awful and shady businesses before. Also: want to bring your pup along? No more, and especially if you are traveling solo with one: "It's just a bit burdensome and financially a loss to accommodate a single... particularly with a dog." Wow, we're a bit burdensome too. This policy and this attitude is the opposite of the welcoming spirit I experienced from them before. If they're comfortable sidelining solo guests, I can't help but wonder what other corner-cutting decisions, surcharges, and greediness now lurks behind the facade they project on Yelp and on their website. I truly regret having given them a glowing review in the past. To anyone who heeded my previous advice and ended up deceived, I apologize. Avoid. We don't need to condone this behavior from ANY business.

We went to two other vineyards ( we thankfully ordered box lunches!) and enjoyed them, too. Our driver delivered us back to our motel. Definitely recommend this tour company if you want to visit vineyards and leave the details to someone else.
