PRIVATE TOUR: Wine Tour or Peninsula Sightseeing, or do Both!
In order to make our Sightseeing Day Trips more affordable for larger groups (10 Max), private parties can book our van and our guide for a private tour which has a flat rate for your entire party. (A substantial savings compared to paying individually for the same tour at our regular rate)
With a private Day Trip, your group will still get our pick-up service and our regular route of stops that our regular Peninsula Day Trip covers, but you will also have the ability to customize the tour as you see fit.
Great for: Wine Tours, Family Reunions, Wedding Groups, Multi-family parties, and so much more...with easy online booking. If the date is available, you could book this right now. No quote necessary!
Lunches are not included as part of the private tour but box lunches are available for purchase from our caterer if you so choose and there are plenty of food trucks and great places to have a picnic lunch in Door County. Otherwise, any type of meal plan you come up with is fine by us.
