Christine R.

Thanks to YELP, hubby and I were treated to an elite VIP experience Verve-style. Our exquisite Napa Valley wine country tour began at the Oxbow Market, followed by a group photo at the French Laundry Gardens with a unique champagne toast. When I say our "chariot" awaits us, a super fancy Mercedes Benz Sprinter rolls up with luxurious amenities inside; this ride is literally a five-star hotel on wheels! We were greeted by the owner and founder of Verve T. Beller herself. She vivaciously introduced us to our docent Rob Roy, Program & Event Manager Ashley, and our driver John. http://vervenapavalley.com http://oxbowpublicmarket.com T. Beller met up with us at the French Laundry Gardens and opened up a champagne bottle with a saber in true Verve fashion! We sipped champagne while exploring the immaculate garden, which sets the tone for an adventurous day. From there, we went on an exclusive tour and tasting at Tamber Bey's private Oakville Estate thanks to owner/proprietor Barry Waitte who generously poured us his library of wines overlooking his magnificent vineyard. His friendly dogs Jasper and Hershey greeted us with a warm welcome. To get a personal perspective from the owner himself on his vision, challenges, and successes was truly a once in a lifetime opportunity. His passion for making wines go hand-in-hand with his love for his horses. He shared with us his background and how the design/logo of his wine bottles came to fruition. We will visit the Tamber Bey winery next time to see the Equestrian. http://www.tamberbey.com Next stop was Tres Sabores Winery tour, tasting, and picnic lunch from Bouchon Bakery in the heart of wine country surrounded by live oak trees. Winemaker and proprietor Julie Johnson is an extraordinary woman in a male-dominated industry. She empowers other women entrepreneurs to become great leaders like herself. Her organic wines are dynamic, and knowing that she was one of the founders of Frog's Leap Winery 30 years ago, the first organic winery in the valley makes her a remarkable individual ~ cheers to Julie! Thank you for teaching us a fun trick on cracking open pomegranates, mimosa time. http://www.tressabores.com http://www.thomaskeller.com/yountville-california/bouchon-bakery We made a stop at Ma(i)sonry Wine Collective and Gallery, where Mikhail showed us around this Historic building once built for Charles Rovegno in 1904 as his private residence, and now it's an art gallery for those who love to sip wines, browse art, and stroll through the outdoor sculpture garden. I can see how collectors of fine art return to this boutique to taste exceptional wines in a beautiful and unique setting. http://www.maisonry.com Our next round of tasting took us to Round Pond Estate and Olive Mill with breathtaking views of the Rutherford farm and winery. Their gorgeous tasting terrace is warm and inviting. After a few sips of wine, our docent and Chef Eric transported us in a red Chevy truck (Greased Lightning lyrics played in my head) over to the Olive Mill to learn about cultivation, harvesting, and methods of olive oil production. We were led to the tasting room to experience a unique tasting of oils and red wine vinegar blends. This experience tantalized our taste buds with aromatic citrus oils. We broke bread at the table and shared mouthwatering dishes. http://www.roundpond.com http://www.roundpond.com/olive-mill Our high-end "chariot" made its way back promptly at 5:30 p.m. in front of Oxbow Market. Thank you Verve for an unforgettable wine tour with the most professional and accommodating staff. I will definitely refer all my friends, family, colleagues, and husband's clients to Verve. T. Beller's knowledge and access to premier wineries throughout Napa Valley will surely delight all clientèle, whether it be a day trip, weekend celebration, or week long stay in wine country. Verve will customize any experience to your liking, and the extra attention will enhance your wine country getaway!

Incredible view from Amizetta

From the moment I started chatting with T and Paul, I knew that this was going to be something special. So many details (winery planning, transportation, etc) that I didn't even have to worry about it, T and her team worked everything out for us and rolled it into one amazing day. We started our tour with T performing a sabrage followed up with a champagne toast. I mean come on, how amazing is this?! Ive only seen this done on tv but to see it in person, a whole new level of experience. From there we headed to Carneros to enjoy pinot noir at Donum Winery followed by Saintsbury. I can't begin to tell you how amazing the wines were but also the knowledge and hospitality by each of our hosts. While the tour was going on, our host and driver, the super friendly and knowledgeable Jason, was busy taking photos with his DSLR so we didn't have to worry about missing a moment. Inside the Mercedes limo van was super posh, leather seats, lighting, water, snacks, etc. I mean, it doesn't get much more comfortable than this. A few places were suggested for lunch, but remember this is a custom curated tour. So we made the choice to visit Addendum for their famous AdHoc fried chicken. This also allowed us leisure time to enjoy the beautiful rainy day under the pines at the picnic area at Addendum. Feasting on some of the best fried chicken under the trees was so romantic. Finally our last stop was Amizetta to enjoy their famous cabs. What a way to end the day, the view from on top of the mountain was one of the best Ive seen in the valley. We also had the pleasure to enjoy our tasting in their mountain side cave. See the progression of our day of tasting. We started out with lighter to medium pinots then ending with some huge cabs. This is one of the many reasons why Verve is one of the best tour companies in wine country, they really do think of every aspect of the day. I can't thank Verve enough for showing us a side of Napa we had yet to experience. This day was truly magical.

Our Verve wine tour was absolutely exceptional. Each winery was fantastic and our guide Rob added such a wealth of knowledge and kindness to compliment the day. The owner, T Beller, started us off with a champagne send off that was a blast. 4 wineries with their own environment, culture, and great wine. It really gave us a fantastic understanding of Napa, the culture of their wineries, and the wine in the area. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!

Second time around for me but first for my daughter. We chose Verve to celebrate her 40th birthday. Rob and Michael were incredible hosts and the itinerary that was chosen for us was remarkable. Every vineyard was unique and different and represented beautifully! We even cooked with John Ash at the CIA. What a fabulous time we had. If you are looking for an incredible experience from beginning to end, look no more. T and Rob will see to making it happen.

Our group traveled from Louisiana to San Francisco where we explored the city, had a wonderful tour and found some great restaurants before traveling via a very comfortable "limo coach" complete with cold drinks and snacks before we arrived at Reyes Point Dairy. There we got to Reyes Point Dairy, a bay calf had just been born as we got to see the working areas. We had a wonderful Spread of their cheeses with wine and a delicious lunch. We traveled on the the Archer Hotel in Napa which she was lovely, comfortable and served great breakfasts. Our tours of small vineyards with wonderful, cheese, lunches and dinner was an absolutely great experience. Verve of Napa valley with T and her crew, Paul,our driver, Rob, who welcomed us and kept everything taken care of leading up to the trip were so gracious! Everyone we met were incredibly welcoming and kind. We had a wonderful trip! To have everything taken care and to be able to visit vineyards we other wise would not have been able to was Priceless. I would book again in a heartbeat! We had incredible weather in September also

For my wife's birthday we rented the 12 passenger Mercedes it was awesome!!! Everything was above my expectations. Our driver Denise showed up 10 minutes early before our pick up time and she had so much knowledge of Napa wines. She even got us in for a tasting at Silver Oak when I tried earlier that day to get us an appointment for 12 people. They were completely booked but she somehow got us in. Thanks so much to Rob for making it easy to set up and communicate also!! Next time I'm in Napa I'm definitely calling Verve!

Hi there! I am planning 30th bday celebration for my daughter on July 24. Possible 10-18 people, 2-3 wineries, with a picnic lunch at one, at smaller vineyards that are dog friendly. Can you help me?

Hello, thanks so much for reaching out to us. Unfortunately we are fully booked on July 24. I hope we can be of service on your next trip to Napa.…

After picking everyone up, our group went to Saddleback Cellars. This was a great vineyard to visit - we were seated right next to the beautiful fields and enjoyed sipping our wine while walking right next to the growing grapes! The lady working there was friendly and it was really nice learning more about the history of their vineyard. They've won several awards, and we could see why! These were some delicious wines. Next, we made our way to Merryvale Vineyards where we also stopped to have our boxed lunch. Their inside space was gorgeous and it was interesting learning about the barrel aging process. We enjoyed our tasting here too! We finished up at Backstage which was one of the highlights of the day - the wines we tasted were excellent and the seating area is just gorgeous, overlooking their beautiful vineyards. We decided to buy a bottle here and enjoyed it later during our trip. Platypus was a great choice for our tour - when I was searching for tour options online it was affordable for our group, had great reviews and I can see why! Army was excellent, I loved that they picked you up and dropped you back to your hotel, and the reduced rates for the tastings helped a lot too! On my next Napa visit I would definitely book with them again.

Some tours have been truly exceptional, while others have been more average. The guides have all been good, although some definitely stand out more than others. Ultimately, though, the biggest factor in the experience is the wineries you visit and how generous they are with their pours. You'll quickly learn what a "revisit" means on these tours. Most wineries are happy to pour you another taste, but some are surprisingly stingy and seem more interested in selling bottles than providing a memorable tasting experience. Some will happily pour their most expensive wines, while others will talk about those wines without actually letting you taste them unless you're willing to buy a bottle. Honestly, that's disappointing, especially when you're there to experience and learn about the wine. That said, Platypus itself is fantastic. The shuttles are spacious, the groups are small, and the overall experience is a great way to explore wine country without the hassle of driving between wineries. My biggest recommendation: tell your tour guide upfront that you want fun, welcoming wineries that are generous with their pours. The right winery selection can take an already good tour and make it an outstanding one. We'll absolutely consider booking with Platypus again!

They could have been difficult about billing adjustments but really went out of their way to make sure we were happy. It's clear they actually care about taking care of their customers, not just getting through the job. Made one less thing for us to stress about on an already busy day. Would definitely use them again and recommend to anyone needing reliable transportation in the area

Instead of making us feel stressed about the lost time, Nick handled everything and made sure we could simply relax and enjoy ourselves. He was professional, incredibly personable, knowledgeable about Napa Valley and genuinely cared about making our day special. The vehicle was beautiful, comfortable and immaculate, and the level of service was exactly what you would expect from a luxury private tour -- actually, even better. We travel frequently and have used many private drivers and tour companies, and Nick is one of the best we've ever had. What really sets him apart is his willingness to adapt when things don't go according to plan. Anyone can provide a great tour when everything runs perfectly; Nick proved how valuable he is when it didn't. If you're looking for a private driver or luxury wine-country tour in Napa or Sonoma, I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Nick and Perata Luxury Tours. We will absolutely use him again. Five stars isn't enough!

Then he surprised me with an afternoon tea on the Napa Valley Wine Train! There were quite a crowd when we checked in at the train station. They called your group letter for boarding. They took a picture of us, then onto the boarding. Our cabin for the afternoon tea is called the Secret Garden. It is decorated with faux flowers but it did look nice. There were booths and chairs facing out on the other side. Michell and Linda offered great service. We were served a small cheese board, then tomato basil soup with a small delicious grilled cheese. Then came the tower of small sandwiches. And afterwards the tower of sweets, pastries and macarons... my husband does not eat fish so the chef replaced with other canapés without fish. That was so nice!!!I like the floral designed teacups that come in an array of different colors. The whole train trip was 3 hours long, and we passed many beautiful vineyards, saw some houses where the vines came right to the front door!! At this time of the year leaves showed a beautiful showing different colors. When we exited the train, there were many staff persons helping us to get off so we don't fall going down the stairs. I appreciate that very much! It was a nice experience but I doubt we will repeat it any time soon due to the cost. There are multiple choices for the experience, from 3-4 course lunch and choices of wines and drinks. But we need to drive home, so the afternoon tea was perfect for us. Parking is abundant in the lot in front of the train station. There is a gift shop also to buy souvenirs and wines.

A bucket list check for sure and I'm genuinely glad I can say I did it. But once was enough…read more The Vista Dome Lunch includes a three course meal, dessert and a glass of champagne which sounds like everything Napa represents. The experience is unique and the train itself is a novelty worth appreciating at least once. Service was funny, quick and very informative , telling us about the area, they did a wonderful job handling our large party. However when I think Napa I think wine tasting hopping between venues, exploring different wineries and really immersing yourself in what the valley has to offer. So make time to do both! The Wine Train doesn't quite deliver that and the views from the dome were honestly just okay. For the price point I think the better Napa experience is booking a private driver and hitting multiple venues at your own pace. You get more wine, more variety and a fuller picture of what Napa actually is. No regrets! just a one and done for me.

So I called and someone actually answered the phone and made my appointment for me, THANK you! We arrived 15 mins early, so we hung out in the lobby reading all the history, etc. Then Skip took us to the best view overlooking the vineyard for our tasting; see pictures! We sampled almost ALL the reds! All of which were good. See pictures. I like the fact that we did side by side tastings of many of his wines. My favorites were the 2022 Primitivo and 2021 Malbec, which we bought a few bottles of. Ambiance - Secluded private winery. Close to main Downtown Napa, but far enough away for privacy and a feeling of being far away. Appointment only, so very private and customer focused. Typically no more than 3 parties at a time. Today was considered a very busy day as there were 4 parties including us, lol. Gated private estate. 200 acres. Plenty of parking, especially since hosting only 3 guests at a time. Events - See their website. Well behaved dogs are allowed outdoors. Service - Skip is a history buff and we both talked for hours... After leaving, well really the next day (LOL), I realized that our tasting was supposed to be only 60 minutes. I guess because we got along so well, we stayed until closing! And he gave me a glass with a generous splash and let us walk the property alone after they left! So welcoming and trusting. Price - Depends on which tasting and what you buy; see their website for prices. Tastings range from $50 to $100 per person. One free designated driver allowed. Tasting fees waived with wine equivalent purchases. Hike tours $75 per person ($60 for club members). See their website for more information.

Our experience with Beau Wine Tours turned into an unforgettable Napa getaway -- thanks almost…read moreentirely to our incredible driver, Terry. I'll be honest: the planning phase started off a little strange. Molly was my point of contact, and then she suddenly disappeared from the process. Fortunately, everything eventually came together, and we ended up with an amazing six-day vacation, including visits to eight wineries over three days. But the real highlight -- the reason this is a 5-star review -- is Terry. Terry was amazing. Super friendly, super nice, and honestly a good-lookin' guy (even if he did tell us he gained 70 pounds after quitting smoking in 2019). He anticipated every single need before we even had to ask. He brought us breakfast when we were too lazy to get out of bed. He brought us pizza when we were too exhausted to make it to our dinner reservations. He's charismatic, charming, and funny as can be. Even on Thanksgiving Day, he made us feel important and cared for -- you'd never know he was missing a holiday with his own family and friends. He took great photos, insisted on making us feel special at every stop, and truly elevated our entire trip. And the best part? He refuses to accept more than an 8% tip. (Kidding... mostly.) Terry made our vacation. Hands down the best driver we've ever had. If you book with Beau, do yourself a favor: ask for Terry.
