Experience the North Georgia Mountains’ Wine Country Without the Hassle
If you’re looking for a way to sample some of Georgia’s best wines without the fuss of planning your own day, the North Georgia Mountains TWO Vineyard Wine Tasting Tour offers a delightful solution. For $139.20 per person, you’ll spend roughly six hours exploring at least two wineries, enjoying guided tours, generous tastings, and even live entertainment. The tour departs from Atlanta, usually at 8:00 am, and offers the convenience of door-to-door pickup and air-conditioned transportation, making it perfect for those who want to relax and focus on the experience.
What we love most about this tour is the seamless logistics, which remove the typical stresses of organizing a winery visit—no worry about driving or parking, and a professional driver (noted as very attentive and friendly in reviews) to keep things moving smoothly. Plus, the opportunity to purchase wines directly from these burgeoning vineyards adds a nice touch, letting you take home a bit of Georgia’s wine-growing future. The inclusion of live entertainment at some stops also adds a lively, engaging atmosphere that keeps the day fun.
One consideration to keep in mind is that lunch is not included, so you’ll want to plan for a snack or meal either before or after the tour. Also, while the wineries themselves receive high praise, some reviewers mention that the wines tend toward dry or sweet flights, with some tasting notes likening the experience to drinking “Boones Farm”—more craft than Napa. If you’re a serious wine connoisseur, these stops might lean towards the more casual, craft side of the spectrum. Still, many find the environment enjoyable and the wines quite tasty.
This tour appeals most to relaxed wine lovers, those new to wine tasting, or anyone curious about Georgia’s fast-growing wine scene. If you enjoy scenic views, good company, and discovering local flavors without the hassle of driving, this trip offers a balanced blend of education, entertainment, and indulgence.
