DeVine Tours

We choose this tour based on a recommendation from a friend. I have to say it was worth the price. We went to four wineries, and had a nice lunch witch was included in the price. All wineries were different, and beautiful in their own way. All the staff were friendly and willing to answer any of our questions. I’m not a wine enthusiast, but I enjoyed the overall experience. We had a fun day, we definitely will be back. This outing was a Book Club outing, I highly recommend it for other groups.
Our driver Adam was cool, he was attentive and professional. We had plenty of time at each winery, never felt rushed.
Thanks, Mandisa Akeliah Book Club

I’ve gone on this tour twice and I’ve enjoyed it every time! Adam was our driver and our tour guide for the day both times and he makes the experience for newcomers very comforting (unless you’re in the tour bus with wine snobs).
The two times I’ve gone on the DeVine Tours, it was with Groupon vouchers. There are so many different Groupons for wine tours but I suggest this one!
You get to select a pick up location and you also have a selection of sandwiches to choose from for your lunch. The tour visits 4 – 5 wineries and you will get lunch halfway through. The bus that takes you to each winery fits about 20ish people I believe (I could be wrong) and has AC so if you’re going on a hot day, don’t worry!
I’d rather not tell you too much about each of the wineries — that’s something you should experience. Plus, Adam and the workers at each winery will inform you of their place (wine, history, etc). All I have to say is each winery comes with about 6 tastings and a beautiful scenery while you enjoy your wine.
If you’re new to wine or know your wine but would like a fun experience with it, there’s no better way to do it than a wine tour.

Adam is the best! He truly goes above and beyond to make your experience perfect. He has the best music playlist and was very knowledgable about each winery. I highly recommend this tour!

I’ve been meaning to write a review for the longest time now… I used this tour group to host a bachelorette party I threw this past summer.
I was a bit apprehensive because they do take some time to get in touch with you. We played phone tag quite a bit, but once I spoke to the woman who handled the bookings, she was very helpful.
Adam was our host, and everything went off without a hitch. He had a great personality, so perfect for the job!
All the wineries we visited were absolutely gorgeous. The service was amazing, the lunch was great, and we all had a really good time.
I have recommended them to multiple people and will definitely plan another tour them in the future.

My friends and I have done this tour two times already and both times were fantastic. Everything was just so easy not complicated and our driver this time around was fantastic. I for sure will do this tour again!!! Thanks for an awesome time!!!

First time using a wine tour company and great time was had. Adam, the guide/​driver, is very knowledgeable of all the wineries on the tour.
We were taken to 4 wineries: Monte De Oro, Danza del Sol, Cougar Vineyard & Winery (where they provided a delicious lunch) & Bel Vino Winery.
Our group will definitely use DeVine Tours again

We have done this tour three times now. We always have a great time. Adam is super fun and accommodating. He knows a lot about the wineries and their wine. Lunch was yummy. The bus is comfortable and very well maintained. We’ll be back!

My group and I had a fabulous time on DeVine tours! Adam was a great driver and kept us entertained the whole time. They took us to awesome wineries and had a great variety of larger and smaller wineries! Great value! I highly recommend!

I’ve used this company two times and had nothing but an amazing experience on both. The only somewhat close to negative thing I would have to say is that the second time around, we didn’t get any type of barrel/​vineyard tour like I did the first time at Leoness. Adam was our driver both times and is fantastic, very knowledgeable on the area and friendly! Very easy reservation process and quick e-​mail confirmation. The wineries we visited were prepped and expecting us at each stop, great choices too (Leoness, Lorimar, Danza Del Sol, Cougar, Bel Vino, Masia de Yabar, and Monte de Oro). They also provide lunch within the tour (turkey, caprese, basic sandwich option but very tasty) which is why we continued to use them since you need food with all the tastings. There isn’t any drinking during the rides but they are very short and with 5 – 6 tastings at each stop, you do not need it. They do some groupon/​travel zoo deals but I got a better deal going directly through the company. I highly recommend and will absolutely use this the next time I’m in the area.

I’m not much of a wine connoisseur so I took a friend along to help me in the process. This is a great tour. Adam is the best: knowledgeable, friendly and very patient. He is also the owner so he knows all about this. This is a great experience for someone who knows nothing about wines. We were given a brief history as well, awesome. Just be careful or you will get tipsy with the 5 – 6 tastings at the 4 wineries you go to.

My friend and I had a great time on our wine tour on 3÷6÷15. The driver was very friendly, relaxed, and recommended some great wines to try at each of the wineries we visited. We had a few stragglers in our group who wanted to sign up for wine clubs, etc, causing our schedule to run a little late, but no one minded and the driver wasn’t irritated by it at all. He was just focused on making sure we were all having a good time.
We went to Europa Village (loved — great staff, funny and friendly) Danza del Sol (beautiful grounds, and also great staff), Cougar (meh — staff was pretty busy at lunchtime and we didn’t get much attention. And their wines were mediocre anyway… so we just decided to hang out outside and enjoy the weather while we ate) and last but not least, Lorimar, which was our favorite! Awesome staff, DELICIOUS wines — Maestro (mourvedre/​syrah blend) and Nocturne (syrah) were our favorites. They also had a great boutique shop and we picked up some great stuff there. Lorimar is music themed and they have a large seating area out back with a stage and an awesome view. I wish I could go there every weekend!
This was our first Temecula trip, and this tour was worth every penny! I would definitely go again!

I can’t vouch for what the actual tour would have been like because we never got that far.
I have never before experienced business as awful as this. I am not a difficult customer and have never written a Unilocal review but this time it’s necessary. We scheduled an entire vacation around this tour — hotel, taking off from work, etc. only to find they couldn’t accommodate us on our original date. Consequently rescheduled everything again, receive a confirmation email, and 3 hours later an email asking us to switch our days. Of course we can’t (we had already rearranged once) and I told them this so we were sent another email canceling our tour. Not only that, after my upset reply, the owners sent a snarky email taking back the offer to refund us the groupon money we had paid for the tour. If you want any amount of professionalism or courtesy I would recommend looking elsewhere.

Tour date: 01÷02÷15
Itinerary: Europa Village, Danza del Sol Winery, Cougar Vineyards & Winery, Lorimar Vineyards & Winery.
Adam was our driver and he knew his stuff. He was very friendly with a good sense of humor. Drive was smooth, even if the music was a little too girly-​pop for me. ;) The shuttle had comfortable seats and large windows for sightseeing. There was a group of 8 celebrating a birthday, myself and my best friend, and a couple. We all got along very nicely. In fact, we made friends with the couple and ended up meeting them up for drinks later too. Wine drinkers are just so nice! I digress… The winery selection was perfect: a nice mix of regional styles and flavors, slightly smaller on the boutique level, and all the grounds were lovely. Our tour included a lunch of ½ sandwich & salad combo from the Boar’s Head deli at Cougar Vineyards & Winery (our third stop) and the food was tasty and the perfect amount. We never felt rushed and Europa Village actually offered everyone a $ 3 off coupon (which we took advantage of). There were 6 tastings at each venue and not having to drive was a blessing. All in all, fun and worth the cost. We considered this s great deal.

This tour was absolutely awesome! My boyfriend and I went for my birthday last weekend, and had Adam as our tour guide. He was fantastic – on time, organized, funny, and gracious/​patient about rounding us up when it came time to leave each winery :)
The wineries we visited in Temecula were great, as well – everything ran smoothly from exiting the tour bus to entering each winery, where we were handed a 6-​tasting card at each location. The only blip/​extra excitement? The power went out at a couple of our last winery locations. No problem, we were having a great time courtesy of Adam and the Devine Tour bus!

I went with my girlfriend and adam was our host he was great fun, never awkward, helpful, abd memorable. Book your first tour with de vine tours

This is THE wine tour to go on.
My boyfriend and I had a complete blast on our trip with Adam as our driver/​comedic tour guide. I purchased a deal on Groupon, and it was well worth the price and drive. The tour lasted 5 hours, but went by so quick (my only complaint was how fast the day ended– time flies when you are drinking wine and having fun!!)
Adam picked everyone up at their specific hotel stop and was right on schedule with everything he laid out on an itinerary for us. We went to 4 great wineries, which included 6 tastings at each. Adam gave us the background of each winery before we got there, along with what they specialized in. At the third stop, we were provided with delicious sandwiches. Every winery we went to was unique, and we felt like we got a good feel for the variety of wines in Temecula.
It was a great day, and a great date for my boyfriend and I. We met a few new friends a long the way. As the day progressed, the bus chatter got louder and louder. Everyone was having a great time. I could definitely see the DeVine tour as the PERFECT outing for my next family reunion, and think it would be perfect for a birthday or bachelorette party!
After our tour, I realized I left the bottle of wine that I purchased on the bus, and was pretty bummed. My boyfriend called the office, and Adam met us at a street fair with the bottle of wine in hand. He went above and beyond his duties, and was such a great host. He even bought us a round of beer at the street fair because they only accepted cash. What a guy. Didn’t even bat an eye when I realized I only had my credit card. (Dont worry– I bought him a round after!)
Great tour with an excellent guide who was a genuinely nice and generous guy. I will definitely be back soon. Thank you DeVine Tours!

DeVine Tours was excellent. I have gone on this tour twice & both times were great.
We went to four different wineries which included up to 6 tastings at each place. At the third winery we were given lunch. I highly recommend eating breakfast… Carbs so that you don’t get tipsy fast.
Adam was our tour guide both times & he never rushed us. If you can you should request him! We’ve gone during the week day and very few people are at the wineries which gives it a more intimate feel during the tasting and makes for a better visit.

I had an amazing time on a DeVine Wine Tour. My mother and I went wine tasting — and it was amazing! Adam, our driver, was very nice and informative. We visited 4 wineries with a total of 24 tastings. Lunch was included, but it was only half a sandwich. With all that wine, additional carbs would have been welcome.
I will definitely go again! But I will bring snacks with me — and have a big breakfast before I go. :)

Can’t say enough about this company. First time wine tasting and it was outstanding! My wife and I were celebrating our one year anniversary and because of our busy schedules wanted to do something close to home but out of the norm. We nailed it with this tour. The driver was prompt, courteous and very live and energetic which made the experience all the better. We had a full bus with one large group that really got the party started! We went to four wineries that day and had ample time at each location. The variety and selection of each winery was good. They weren’t all the same, which is what our apprehensions were at first. Each one was unique and offered something a little different. A few even offered some really delicious looking food. The tour itself lasted well over 4 hours and worth every penny. I would do it again and highly recommend it to friends.
Tip:
–Bring cash for gratuity for servers at each tasting location (we gave about $ 2 at each winery).
— Don’t forget to tip the driver.
–Bring snacks! After the first tasting I was already feeling a little buzzed!

Went on a Temecula wine tour with 3 friends on a great Fall day with Devine Wine Tours. They suggested a pick up at South Coast winery at 10:20 am which was great. They were about 15 minutes late because of missing participates. I just wish they would have called to let us know this because we were starting to think we had the pickup stop wrong. Otherwise all went well with the tour and I would not hesitate to tour with them again.
The bus was very nice, sort of like a shuttle bus for airport transport, but of course much nicer. It can hold about 20 people. We had 4 in our group and there was another group of 6 so we were about half full for a Sunday tour.
We were handed a written itinerary showing the time line for each of the 4 wineries we would be going to. Each with a little information about each winery. Also Adam, our driver would give high-​lights of the next winery. Each winery you had 4 to 6 tasting.
We went to Europa Village (which we requested prior when signing up for the tour date). So nice of them to accept special requests. Second stop was Monte De Oro which I really like as we got to go into the barrel room and I picked up a few bottles of wine. Third stop was Masia de Yabar which I’ve been to before. Love their sangria! We had our lunch on their patio which has nice views of the valley. The lunch was a nice catered sandwich with a side of pasta salad and a cookie. Very tasty and lots of variety from tradition sub sandwich, Turkey, or Tuna or a Caprese or veggie sandwiches. Last stop was Lorimar, it was very busy being toward the end of the day around 2pm to 3pm. I did get one bottle of wine here as well.
We had plenty of time at each winery, never felt rushed. Adam would round us up and let us know when we would be heading out to the next stop. We were dropped back off around 3:15pm to our start point at South Coast Winery. Already looking forward to touring again with Devine Wine Tours!
