We started later then 4pm (4:45 pm) only because of traffic from his last tour, so I’m not holding that against him since that was not his fault. Since we started late he did mention it was not going to effect the tour but we still were dropped off right before the “4 hours” was up. I will say we did another tour for the same price and everything was included. We did not know everywhere we went we had to pay $16-17 for the beers to try. If we would have known that $206 was just to be driven we probably wouldn’t have did this tour. As for Jason the tour guide was not bad once you got him to talk but it was awkward and he was on his phone. Most of the time he didn’t hear what was asked since he was focused on his phone. We didn’t really get any background on the beers but mostly on the town and what the buildings use to be. We did feel like we were wasting his time since we gave drinks back to the bartender earlier then we needed to since we didn’t like them and our guide was as getting tired. I can say at the last stop we did get him to play a game with us and we felt like that was the only time we had a good time. By all means this isn’t a bad or a good review but hopefully a learning experience for the people booking and the guide.

It was so nice being picked up at our hotel and taken to several distilleries and wineries, Some hidden deep in the Ozark countryside. Great whiskeys and wines to taste and enjoy. Very pleasant, enjoyable experience. Our guide and driver, Jason, offered numerous tips to make our time more rewarding.

Beware!!! Scam!! This is a very deceptive misleading “tour”! I have been on brewery tours in many cities where we were driven to various bars, receiving at least one beer included in the price of the tour at each location. This “Ozark craft beverage, Brewery Tour” was a glorified Uber driver. I would never in a billion years pay someone $205.00 to drive us to 4-5 breweries. Had we known no beverages were included, we would’ve just ordered a Uber from our hotel for $7-$10 to various breweries in the area! We arrive at the first brewery and Order two beers. The bartender asks, “do you want to start a tab”. I said, “no, the driver we’re with will pay.” He came up and he said, “no I just drive you to the bars & you pay for the beers”. We were literally in shock! We sit down after paying $16 for our beers. I tell him that we were supposed to be getting beers at every bar. He said, “no he’s just a driver”. He said other people have told him that was their expectation as well! So I told him he needs to change the wording because it’s very misleading, deceptive and fraudulent. Especially since we weren’t the only ones that expected beer on the tour for $205 for two people!! The worst part is that he then sat with us at every bar while we drink our beers that we paid for. We couldn’t really talk to each other. It was so uncomfortable and awkward. he should’ve just waited in the car. Apparently, he considers himself a “Tour Guide” whose “job” was to get us a table and tell us about the beers. I have been to many breweries. If I have any questions about a beer, I’ll ask the bartender. I would never pay someone $205 to drive us to a bar & “tell us about beers”… which he didn’t do anyway. After the second stop, he would just look at his phone while we drank our beers. On the way to the second Brewery, he started talking about cannabis, . He shared that he has a medical marijuana license in Missouri and Oklahoma. The one in Oklahoma gets him cannabis “really cheap” because he “had a doctor give him a medical marijuana license over the phone” saying he “needed medical marijuana because he has back pain”. Apparently Oklahoma only has medical marijuana so he travels there, loads up on the cannabis and brings it back to Missouri where he lives. I told him when we were at the third bar that I was going to be contacting TripAdvisor to get my money back because this was a misleading representation of what we actually received! We paid $200 for a driver plus $16-$17 at each location, While he sat there on his phone, taking pictures of our beer. At the last bar, a woman shows up who he called his “Sunflower”. I didn’t know until we were on the way home that it was his wife. She stood at the end of our table for the 15 to 20 minutes while we were drinking our beer. Then he started using a vape pen that we’re pretty certain was marijuana. The drive home was extremely scary. It was pitch black out and we’re with a driver who is smoking pot, taking samples of beer at several of the bars and driving 80 miles an hour down the highway to get us back to our hotel so he could go out drinking with his wife. This is Not only the worst experience for me and my daughter, but also very upsetting, disturbing, unsettling, scary and misleading. I am requesting a full refund.

We had a blast. Jason was very knowledgeable and gave us a great tour! He was punctual, alot of fun, and had alot of stories since he is a local that grew up in the area. Very easy scheduling too

What a fun day! Jason was a great driver and guide taking us to 4 locations. We enjoyed the wine and the shine and the laughs! Jason was helpful, friendly and took photos of our group. We would highly recommend his Wine and Shine Tour!

Jason was great. He arrived on time. He was professional and polite. We were impressed with the wineries in Branson. We really enjoyed the entire day.

We loved the beautiful Bear Creek winery. Gorgeous location, excellent food. Jason took great photos of us to capture our day. He was super knowledgeable and very gracious your guide!

Jason was a great tour guide! We were taken to 3 breweries- all in the Springfield area. Great locations, friendly service, & really good beer. Jason had great suggestions! Atmosphere at all locations were warm & welcoming. This tour made our couples trip to the Ozarks! A definite must do!

Jason is the best! Very knowledgeable and a warm personality that makes everyone feel comfortable ! Totally recommend to all!

Our guide, Jason, was outstanding. His knowledge of the area and suggestions were well received. The wineries he choose for us to visit were excellent.

Jason was excellent and extremely knowledgeable on the breweries. He picked us up and had everything planned out. There were 6 breweries scheduled and we got through 5 of them and each were unique and local which I love. It was a great time for my whole family for do together and Jason made it easy and worry free. I will 100% do it again if I’m back in town.

This was one of the best days that we spent in Branson! Our tour guide Jason was fantastic and told us a lot about the wineries and the history behind them. We had a very relaxing day and will remember this for the rest of our lives!

Jason was an excellent guide and customized a tour for us with the best wineries and craft breweries in the Branson area. We allowed him to pick the stops and were not disappointed. The convenience of pick up and drop off at our villa made for a great day for everyone. I would highly recommend Tour of the Ozarks and plan to use them for our family vacation again next year.

Can't say enough for the great time we had on this craft beer tour. Jason, owner, went above and beyond to give us an exceptional local brewery experience. We had the opportunity to visit & sample beers from 7 different Missouri breweries. We met some fun and engaging folks along the way. Jason went above & beyond by asking his wife to deliver a birthday cake to our final destination since it was my hubby's 60th birthday! If you want a unique experience of a diverse mix of Missouri breweries, you really need to take this tour.
