    Motorcycle for sidecar tour
    Alyx M.

    We had an amazing day with Bryan, our tour guide. He was so knowledgeable about the geography, the local ecosystems, and history; he used this knowledge to give us a deep understanding of all the factors that go into wine making and the Temecula valley as a whole. We had a great time at the wineries but more so on the road. Listening to all of his knowledge about the area was worth the trip. We recommend this tour to anyone looking for a bit more adventure than just standing around a wine tasting. We will absolutely be bringing back family and friends on this tour. Our guide was also able to recommend dinner spots in old town and, just as important, where not eat. By the end of the day, we were looking up available property to move to Temecula; one more glass of wine and we would have never gone home!

    My repeated attempt for a response.  They offer to book, never book.  They offer to refund, then stop responding.

    I bought a voucher from Groupon in December in hopes that I can take my wife on a unique experience for our anniversary. I was very hopeful when I saw this business because it was local, it was original, and it had good reviews. Since December, this experience has been an absolute nightmare. When I try to reserve for my anniversary, I was met with minimal responses via email, and multiple outreach to the phone number provided with zero ability to leave a voicemail and zero callbacks since December. When the business disappointed me by not reserving things for my wife and I in December, I revisited the conversation in April before my voucher expired. I tried to get things reserved again and the inbox that was responding to me failed me multiple times. They offered a refund for my voucher because they never reserved me and I accepted their offer, but they stopped responding altogether. I don't know if this is a real business, and I don't know if any of these five star reviews are real, but I have had a horrible experience and I can't get somebody to help me over the phone, via email, or even through social media. When I didn't get any responses, I reached out on Instagram and hopes that somebody would at least see my message and respond. Unfortunately, they've been extremely consistent and consistently dark. I'm going to take the time to post this review and my screenshots on every review platform until I can get my money back. As much as I know, my wife would've loved the experience, even if they offered to give me a comp session, I would not take advantage because I can't rely on them following through. I'm embarrassed to have to write this review because I would much rather support a business like theirs, but I have tried my best and my business isn't wanted.

    We had a blast getting to tour the wine country! Hunter did an amazing job showing us around. We got to stop at some beautiful spots for pictures. Thanks for making our trip special!

    The starting point for the wine tour

    I bought the wine tour for two about a year ago but I didn't end up using it then. Fast forward to February of 2023, and it's my partner and my anniversary. We scheduled the tour which was pretty simple via phone. They booked us for 10am instead of 1pm. I didn't realize this until afterwards. I didn't call back to switch it. Just was hoping it wasn't too cold! The whole experience was 100% percent worth it!!! Hunter was our guide and he took us to two different wineries. We went to Somerset winery and Bella vista winery. Bella vista has arguably the best views in Temecula (you can see big bear mountain from here, snow capped and everything!) Somerset has a lovey causal ambiance which is my favorite and a lovely fireplace to sit by on chillier days. The whole experience was absolutely worth it and so unique! I'd highly recommend that you try it out. The tour gives you neat information about Temecula and it's history of wine and the ride from winery to winery is lovely. We spent about 45 minutes at each winery which was plenty!

    On the road!

    Our tour guides Bryan and Shawn were top notch. They made the experience fun, made sure we were taken care of, and shared their knowledge of Temecula. The winery stops were great with the right amount of time and wine at each. And the sidecar / motorcycle experience on the side/back roads was the best part. We were a party of 4 (two couples). Would book again and try the other tours they do.

    Such a fun experience! The wineries we hit were so fun! Time seemed to slip away. We went to two wineries and it was just the right amount! The drivers were fun and made it a great experience.

    We had a great time Fred was a great tour guide Would definitely recommend the experience

    Follow up texts trying to get a refund for the tour they canceled.

    The company is a scam and refuses to refund us for a tour they canceled. Avoid them at all costs. I booked for a tour in SLO in 2023 and the day before they text me and said the tour was canceled and that we would get a refund. However, since then, I have tried to contact them countless times over the past year (see photos for texts and I have placed many more calls) and have gotten no response and no refund. At this point it is clear they are intentionally withholding my refund with the hopes that I will forget. This has happened to multiple other user on both Yelp and TripAdvisor. Luckily for me, their HQ is local to me so I will be filing a small claims suit against the company to recover the amount they stole.

    The burn the following week

    I'd like to start by saying I would hands down give the drivers and our wine tasting experience 5 stars. All drivers were absolutely incredible. Great personalities, fun to hang with, overall good guys! The wine tour- amazing! However, with the customer service I received over the last few months, AS WELL as the day of, I can not possibly recommend this company to anyone else. And it's only right for me to share my experience with others. This really saddens me, because I used this company in January of this year, with just one other friend (needing only one bike) and fell in love with the experience so much, that we just returned with 16 girls. That's right- I had SIXTEEN girls on a wine tour this last week. And we are a FUN BUNCH, let me tell ya!!! Also very low maintenance. (All I ask for is communication). I originally had 12 girls, but as of about 2 months ago, it increased. Little by little. I COULD NOT for the life of me get a hold of a human being to update my reservation. I called and called and left message after message. I finally found a different phone number, simply by reviewing the photos from our first wine tour- the number on the bike we rode- I finally got a promising voicemail recording at least. After about a week of trying to get a hold of someone, we finally got Macy. I now had Macy's direct phone number and was able to text her. She was so helpful in the beginning. She helped with our Groupon purchase and I really felt good about our communication at the time. But she made quite a few empty promises. She mentioned she would send over a list of wineries we could possibly choose from- never happened. In fact we ended up doing the exact tour I did earlier this year (which is fine, but would have been fun to have the option to have a new experience). She also confirmed we had 8 bikes earlier in the week. Anyways- here we are about 5 days prior to our tour and I'm texting and calling and texting and calling. No response. (See photos). I was very clear that I wanted 2 people per bike, for everyone to be in a side car. I needed 8 bikes for the 16 of us. She confirmed that that's what they had down. Day of: they pull up with SIX BIKES. I call immediately. Nothing. She texts that she's on the other line. (Never tried calling me). Not even to this day. I immediately mentioned that we only have six bikes, when I asked for 8. Macy: "to my knowledge they were prepared for you. Not sure what had happened on their end. I had noted that you didn't want to 3up (3 people one bike) I hope you guys have a great time regardless. " That was the last I heard from her until I contacted her today about still being upset and wanting an explanation. She placed blame on someone else (not sure who) "on their end"???? With absolutely zero options to fix the problem or even a follow up to see how our tour turned out. Today we texted back and forth, until she just didn't respond anymore. Due to having less bikes, we had two girls that needed to ride behind a driver. Which sadly resulted in one of my friends burning her leg on an exhaust. (See photo). This is honestly such an incredible experience, being able to enjoy the beautiful scenery with great company of your friends... And with great tour guides. We continued to make the best of it, as we do. But I am just so disappointed with the lack of empathy and customer service for a group my size. I would expect them to really want to make it special for us, to be sure we shared our photos and videos and experience in a positive light. I wish I could speak highly of every bit of this experience, but sadly I can not. I just needed to inform people before they go and spend a pretty penny on this tour just to have communication issues and frustration all throughout.

I decided to do a wine tasting for my birthday with 2 other guests and drove from LA to Temecula on a Sunday. Arriving to the estate was easy, there's plenty of free parking spots surrounding the winery. It's quite an uphill stroll and some stairs are involved, but you definitely get a workout in. They have a covered patio area of tables that are either reserved or you put your name down to get a table on the left side of the winery, the middle/terrace area is usually used for private parties/events such as a bridal shower or birthday party, where there are 2 outside bars and sometimes they offer live music, the back area of the estate has a grassy area with small vendors selling jewelry and such with picnic style tables (no shade or cover), a gazebo of seating facing in my opinion, the best part of the view, and a separate location for wine club members. The inside is where you do the actual wine tasting experience, and has high bar stool tables and chairs for seating as well. Stepping up to the hostess desk, a man who worked there greeted us and very quickly told us what they offer and then walked away (had nothing to do with the check in desk area, so it was a little confusing). The hostesses had the same spiel to give, and I had mentioned it was our first time and we had absolutely no idea how to even begin a wine tasting experience. The explanations were rushed and basically told us to figure it out. We walked away towards the inside/outside terrace of the winery and were stuck walking around for 5 minutes not knowing where to go. We stopped by one of the outside bars and asked for help, the bartender told us we could start our wine tasting experience inside. Now was that so hard to help us navigate where we're supposed to go and what we're supposed to do? Not everything should be explained on a script, most of the time hospitality and customer service goes a longer distance than formalities. We finally get inside and the women working the front for the tastings were really impersonal and standoffish. We finally start getting a tasting experience going, asked for recommendations and none were received or explained so we just picked random options and had them pour. Throughout the 6 tastings we had, each pour was a different amount, if the bottle they were using was running low, they would pour the last bits of it (barely 2 sips), and hand it over, vs a bottle that was more than full, would get a nice even tasting pour. We eventually wanted to order food, and before we even started the tasting, we asked for a table and the hostess told us it would be over an hour wait. We put our names down, they called us in the middle of our 2/6 tasting, which was less than 20 min. So we went to our table and kept having to go back inside one by one to taste our different wines, as we were at a table now and not just doing the tasting experience inside. Food was great, service at the table was also great. Afterwards we left our table and walked towards the gazebo area and sat down by the view. The most enjoyable part of our day just taking in the atmosphere. On our way out, we wanted to experience a different viewpoint which was the bar area with the stools next to the tables of the "reserved/name down" area. I very nicely asked the hostess if we could sit in the empty seats for just a second to finish our last tasting and take in the view, she told us no those are reserved areas and not just open for anyone to sit at as they please. "Sorryyyy those are reserved spaces" with a smile that was clearly not genuine. We understood, dropped our wine glasses off at the bar, and proceeded to our next destination. All in all, the service here was not great. The entire experience felt absolutely rushed, it was not focused on the wine tasting experience at all, they are more focused on selling tables and getting you to order food. There was no explanations on a quick backstory of the wines we were interested in trying, it was just like "which one do you want" "*point*" poured it, and just told us to enjoy. I didn't enjoy my time here at all, and I won't be back to visit, as there are many many other lowkey wineries that are not as highly reviewed or popular as this one, and they are a much better experience.

This was event first class, fun, and no hassle. We all had a great time! The only challenge, which is typical at public events, long bathroom line for the women at Lorimar. This place was rockin' and with music and dancing!
