VINE & ORCHARD ADVENTURES

Bespoke tours discovering the best vineyards, cideries and distilleries

LET US TAKE YOU ON AN ADVENTURE

We are proud advocates of English wine here at Tivoli Wines, which is why we’re one of the largest retailers of English & Welsh wine in the country. We believe that the best way to understand English wine is to experience it – stand in the vineyards, listen to the passion, learn the process and taste as you go. Vine & Orchard Adventures was created with this aim, and not limited to wine alone, we give you exclusive opportunities to go behind the scenes of award-winning drinks producers.

Offering one of a kind guided tours and tasting experiences, we’ll transport you across the beautiful Cotswolds and Three Counties countryside, introducing you to the UK’s finest vineyards, cideries, breweries and distilleries. Sit back and relax, we do all the driving so you can fully enjoy your day. We can’t wait to have you on board!

Vine & Orchard Afternoon Tea Tour

Where do we visit?

We like to support our neighbouring food and drink businesses across the Cotswolds and Three Counties. Our tours include visits to Woodchester Valley Vineyard, Little Pomona, Wood Brothers Distillery, and more.

We also have direct relationships with drinks producers across the country, so if you have somewhere in mind, we’re always willing to create wine, cidery and distillery tours to your own specifications. Be it Hampshire, Sussex, Kent or Dorset, you tell us where you’d like to go.

Our public tours depart from our base in Cheltenham, but we can offer pick-up and drop-off services across Gloucestershire, Oxfordshire, Bath, Bristol and Swindon areas upon request. Just ask and we'll come to you.

If you don’t wish to travel, we can create custom ‘At Home’ private wine tastings for you. We can also build these into one of our tour itineraries upon request. Our team are all WSET-qualified, simply choose a theme and leave the rest to us.

How much does it cost?

Vine & Orchard half-day experiences start at £59 per person, with full-day experiences starting at £99.

As all our wine tours and drinks experiences are bespoke, prices depend on the agreed itinerary and pick-up location.

For private bookings, we require a minimum of 4 guests for the tour to go ahead. Our luxury Mercedes caters for small groups (maximum of 7 people), though we can employ the services of a local transport provider for large group experiences and corporate events if necessary.
