Charlottesville Sip & Explore: Beer, Wine, and Cider Hop-On Tour

The Beer, Wine, and Cider Hop-On Tour offers a relaxed and flexible way to discover some of the best breweries, wineries, and cider houses around Charlottesville. Designed for adults seeking a social and scenic tasting experience, the tour begins with a convenient pickup from a selected hotel or from Three Notchd Brewing Company at IX Art Park, setting the stage for a full day of exploration.

Guests have the freedom to customize their journey by selecting three unique stops, each offering its own distinct atmosphere, flavors, and local character. With approximately one hour at each location, the itinerary is carefully structured to allow ample time for tastings, conversation, and enjoyment without feeling rushed. From craft breweries to boutique wineries, each destination provides a different perspective on the region’s vibrant beverage culture.

Over the course of the six-hour experience, comfortable round-trip transportation ensures a smooth and stress-free journey between stops. The tour operates rain or shine and is designed exclusively for guests aged 21 and over with valid identification. While tastings, food, and gratuities are not included, the flexible format allows visitors to tailor their spending and experience at each venue.

Concluding back in Charlottesville, the tour offers a seamless return after a day of shared discovery and relaxation. With a minimum group size required for operation, the experience fosters a friendly, social atmosphere ideal for couples, friends, or small groups looking to enjoy the region’s craft beverage scene in a convenient and engaging way.
