Exploring Historic Fredericksburg

With over 100 vineyards and beautiful wineries in the area, it's no wonder that Fredericksburg area wine tours are a top attraction for travelers. Our popular grapes are those grown in the European regions of Tuscany Italy, Provence, and France, as well as Spanish and Portuguese varietals.

History buffs have plenty to explore in small-town Fredericksburg. Founded by German immigrants in 1846, you'll see the German influence in the architecture, culture, and food. Fredericksburg Texas is one of the few remaining present day German cultural communities in the US. The 36th President of the United States was born and raised here, and the Lyndon B Johnson National and State historical parks are dedicated to the preservation of early Texas life as they offer a look at the life and times of LBJ and his wife Lady Bird Johnson.

WHO ARE WE?

Hi, i’m bailey..

Growing up in Fredericksburg and working at some of the first local wineries & distilleries during summer break, Bailey Whitworth learned a lot about the industry and is well-versed in southern hospitality. As Fredericksburg grew from a farm & ranch community into a tony tourist destination, Bailey knew she wanted to share the local flare with others. She knows just about everyone in the local viticulture industry and after attending Texas Tech, decided the best way to share her love for God’s country was to start a tour company that enables her to share her passion closely with others. It has been a while in the making, but here we are!

TESTIMONIALS

Stephanie with 290TX Tours made our visit fantastic. She is very thoughtful and personable; from coordinating wineries and lunch to managing our groups wine purchases. Thanks Stephanie, cant wait to come back!

We had a great time with Stephanie and we will definitely be back to share another experience with 290TX Tours

Bailey is very knowledgeable about the wineries in the area. She was able to provide us a list of her favorite places and let us customize what we liked the most. We visited four wonderful places and had a great day being toured around the region. 290TX Tours’ hospitality is a 10!

290TX Tours was awesome! Super friendly and informative. Gave us plenty of time at each winery we visited but kept us on schedule. The Mercedes Sprinter van was top notch! We were able to jam to our own music via Bluetooth and Stephanie kept all of our purchases stored in the back while we were out and about. Highly recommend!!

We just got back from a great weekend in Fredericksburg and used 290TX Tours and it was AWESOME! Stephanie is very knowledgeable about the region, reliable, and prompt with her communications. She made our winery tour experience easy and so much fun! I would HIGHLY recommend using 290TX Tours when planning a trip to Fredericksburg. We will most definitely book with her again! Thank you Stephanie!

We had a fantastic time on our 25th anniversary wine tour. Paul did such an excellent job of taking us to some excellent wineries, catering to our needs (water, snacks, taking items to the van).

Testimonials

Austin was our driver for our tour and we had such a fantastic time. He was super helpful during the planning and I trusted him to map out the wineries we visited. It was also a plus he picked us up AT our rental so we didn’t have to leave! Austin, the bus, the snacks provided and the hand written thank you, the wineries, the willingness to take a million pictures of our group….everything exceeded our expectations.

I am from Fredericksburg and took a group of friends there for the wine tour July 4th weekend! Reserve Tours was by far the best choice! Austin was so flexible with the group changing their minds, and suggested the best wineries with the BEST atmospheres. It was definitely a VIP experience. The party bus was flawless with snacks and drinks as we cruised the streets with our tunes blasting! Cannot wait to go back to the Fredpatch and do it all over again!

I had the pleasure in going on a wine tour with my wife. The luxury van was amazing. Our driver knew the area well and we were welcomed everywhere we went. If you want to go on a true VIP experience do it with this group they are awesome. Best outing in years! Thank you Reserve Tours!

We booked Austin for my bachelorette wine tour and couldn’t have asked for a better experience! He was extremely attentive, knew the best pictures to take and kept us on time. The bus was amazing and just the cherry on top of the weekend. I strongly recommend him if you are wanting the best experience!

Austin was absolutely wonderful! We had such a great time. He was such a gentleman, made us laugh and treated us so well. Our bus was beautiful, new & super clean! Austin & his wife take pride in their business and it shows. I would highly recommend Reserve Tours to anyone looking to book a wine tour in beautiful Fredericksburg. Thank you, Austin for your hospitality! We will most definitely be seeing you again!

Took a tour of a bunch of old hill country beer dives. We rolled in like rock stars and the service was first class! Thanks Austin! Will do it again soon!

Please note: Commercial auto insurance premiums industry-wide have on average doubled in price and unfortunately, we have had to increase pricing to cover this expense effective with all new reservations rec'd after 2/27/24.
