From planning to execution, Wish Wish Wine Tour went above and beyond to ensure my friends and I had an amazing day exploring Charlottesville wineries. After creating the perfect itinerary using their wonderful online planning tool, Roger was so kind and chatted with me several times about the day and what to expect. He gave us excellent recommendations and tips for our tour and was incredibly helpful, answering every question I had. Prior to the day of the tour, our driver, Jim reached out to introduce himself. Immediately, I felt reassured, safe, and excited about our day. It was clear that Jim cared about our experience and genuinely wanted us to have an unforgettable tour. When he picked my friends and I up from our AirBNB, he had a cooler of water bottles, umbrellas, space to keep souvenirs, and a cheery disposition that was a welcomed change from some of the Uber drivers we encountered on our trip. Jim told us about himself and the areas as we drove and made several suggestions that enhanced our experience. At each stop, he directed us to the winery’s check in, took pictures for us, and made sure we stayed safe. As the day went on, Jim remained pleasant and genuine, always willing to extend an arm to help us in or out of his car, and making sure we had everything we needed. At the end of a long day, Jim made sure we made it home in one piece (not an easy feat for a group of ladies on an 8 hour wine tour) and even took a selfie with us! It was clear that he truly loves what he does and takes pride in showing guests around the area. Wish Wish, Roger, and Jim made our experience absolutely awesome. We would recommend them to anyone looking for an efficient, safe, and fun way to experience Charlottesville wineries and the beautiful sights that come with them. Thank you all for a stress-free, memorable girl’s trip, you are the best of the best!

Absolutely top notch service and had a perfect day! We hired Wish Wish Wine Tours for a six hour winery/brewery tour for four people. We were able to set our own itinerary and we were even allowed to alter it slightly during our tour with no issues. We also ended up adding an extra person to our tour last minute. Extremely accommodating and attentive! Roger was available by email to answer and all questions ahead of time. The communication from both Roger and Teri (our driver) was outstanding. Teri was amazing! Highly recommend. Looking forward to touring some other venues with Wish Wish Wine Tours in the near future!

My husband and I had a great time on our private Wish Wish wine tour. Brian was a fantastic guide and was well equipped when a rainy day combined with Covid restrictions created a small dilemma for one of the wineries we originally planned to visit. We opted to create our own route as there were some wineries at the top of our list to visit. Brian suggested a great alternative winery and made sure we had a place to sit that was covered (out of the rain) and made sure we had an attentive server before he headed back to the car to wait. It was a great day!

This is our second year taking a tour with Beth. She is friendly and knowledgeable, and we trust her recommendations 100%. My only issue this year was pricing...we were forced to get a larger van because of COVID issues, which is not anyone's fault. I do wish the company would take that into consideration, though. There's a big difference between $450 and $675 to accommodate one additional person.

In July my wife and I took a wine tour with WishWish and we can't recommend it highly enough. The service was friendly and professional. Our driver Jim, took the time to get to know us and did everything possible to make sure we had a great time. He knew the people at the wineries and even convinced one of them to stay open a little later for us. Charlottesville and the surrounding areas are gradually garnering the acclaim they deserve for its wine. If you are considering a visit, don't worry about the driving. Trust WishWish. They will treat you right.

This is a fantastic company. Our driver Philip was excellent, incredibly knowledgeable about wineries, wines, restaurants, and other places of interest. We booked a tour with only 2 stops because we wanted to enjoy and leisurely lunch and it all worked out perfectly. I highly recommend Wish Wish Wine Tours.

From the ease of finding and booking the perfect wine tour to the final drop off at our hotel, our experience with Wish Wish was excellent. This was a special birthday gift for my wife and I wanted it to be a perfect day. Thanks to Roger, the owner and Jim, our driver it was.
I researched several companies but kept coming back to them. The web site was easy to navigate with my phone, well organized and informative. We were staying in Orange, VA which is not in Charlottesville but that was no problem. With their suggested itineraries I found one close to the hotel. Booking was easy and secure. Once booked, Roger sent me a detailed email on what to expect.
Our driver, Jim, contacted me in advance via text and arranged a short phone call for the day before to go over the pick up time and tour details. From the time he arrived until he dropped us off, Jim did everything he could to make things special. He was a joy. He even managed to work in a couple of his favorite wineries in addition to the itinerary stops. We were impressed with his knowledge of the area, his love of the job and willingness to share some of his life’s story with us. It was like being with an old friend. Here’s one thing that really impressed me: nothing went wrong with the tour and everything was just perfect. If you want to have a great private wine tour in the Charlottesville area do not hesitate to use Wish Wish. I’m a tough grader but I give them a ten.

We booked a private SUV tour online and the process was very user friendly. We were contacted right away to plan our itinerary and we did so within 24 hours. Our tour was confirmed via email the very next day. Roger reached out to us and let us know that one of the Winery's we chose required reservations and wanted to confirm that we had one with them, which we did. I really like the attention to detail that was given to to our reservations and itinerary. The day before our tour I got a text message from our driver, Jim introducing himself and asking if it would be ok to call and confirm a few details. I responded and he called me within moments. He introduced himself, confirmed our pickup spot and time. The call was brief but informative. The morning of our tour Jim picked us up right as agreed. He was very pleasant and a wealth of knowledge to the local area. He was very eager to please our group and made a lot of thoughtful suggestions along the way. He even took us to a few popular spots which were very scenic and not part of the tour. With our group not being from the local area this was very appreciated. As the tour went on Jim spoke about the history of each vineyard and the local area. Since only one of the Winery's required a reservation we were pretty much on our own schedule. Jim suggested a few that were not on our list and we were not disappointed at all. They all had great memorable views and amazing wine! By this time we were calling him Uncle Jim, as he felt like he was part of our group and had a true interest in making us happy. Uncle Jim went out of his way to check on us while we were sitting at each table at every place we went. He wanted to make sure we were having a good time and didn't need anything. Uncle Jim and WISH WISH Wine tours were great and we would book with them again when we come back to the area.

I booked the tour for a group of six that included family (all adults) and friends to celebrate my daughter's 21st birthday. Everything about the experience was great, from the booking to the ease of making changes to our pick-up time, to the drive and the individual wineries. The vehicle was comfortable and clean. And, our driver (Phil) not only gave us a smooth ride but offered some friendly and helpful tips about which wineries to visit in order to lessen travel time and maximize our experience. He was super flexible - we would definitely do this again!

Planning out the tour ahead of our trip to Charlottesville was easy using the tool provided by Wish Wish. On the day of, our driver Ike was fantastic. Ike picked us up exactly on time, the van was nice and clean, he let us play our own playlists and was extremely flexible with us throughout the day. I would highly recommend Wish Wish to anyone visiting the Charlottesville area for wine tasting!
