Living on the east coast we had done several wines tours in Virginia. For my first trip to Napa Lonnie came highly recommended from my brother. I told Lonnie we didn't care for the "herd mentality" and we would prefer visits to small boutique wineries. Lonnie set up a fabulous tour to exquisite wineries. Everything was perfect - the wineries,... More

If you want to experience the best of Napa's offerings...Lonnie is the key to getting there but more importantly, getting inside! If tour buses full of white zinfandel drinkers is your style, best to go with Yelp. If personal attention and private winery experiences are your goal...Call Lonnie!

We had an amazing day with Lonnie driving our group of 4 and telling us about the various wineries in Napa Valley. He is native to the area, and knows a lot of the winemakers (even went to grammar school with a few of the big names in town). We loved his informative and approachable style, and felt completely at... More

My college friend of 20 + years and I were so thankful for Lonnie. He assisted in choosing the wineries, gave us a great history of Napa Valley/wine country, provided a delicious lunch, drove us safely, and charged us very reasonably. He is very professional, personable, and knowledgeable. We had a great day of wine tasting and he is a... More

Lonnie drove us this past weekend. He knew everything about Napa and the vineyards and wine in general. He was a pleasure to be around. We had another driver who wasn't as friendly and fun the next day, and it made such a huge difference. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Lonnie to anyone looking for a driver in the Napa... More

The first time I went it was on a girls trip, and we had a fabulous time. Lonnie had a great itinerary planned, some based on our requests and others on his recommendations. We had a beauftiful lunch, and tasted a lot of great wines. We went in the van because there were 7 of us, it was comfortable, clean... More

We just got back from our first trip to Napa. It was a great experience made even more wonderful by Lonnie. He knew the vineyards, the varietals, and had great resources when we went tasting. He completed our itinerary with a couple of great suggestions and they were amazing. We will absolutely work with Lonnie on our next visit and... More

There wasnt a question I asked that Lonnie couldn't answer. Picked us up and dropped us off at our hotel. Reasonably priced and great service. Got us in at a really nice restaurant. Probably the most popular guy in Napa. Thanks Lonnie!

Lonnie was a great and friendly driver. If you want to truly experience Napa's small vineyards take Lonnie's private tours. I sampled some of the best white and red wines. Lonnie also drove our car and he was extremely careful with the car and had no problem taking where we wanted to go. Lonnie is a friendly, knowledgeable, and courteous... More

I have toured with Lonnie for years (in fact, I won't tour with anyone else), and was pleased to find out that he started his own company! As a Napa native, Lonnie is knowledgeable of the area, well connected, and has a skilled palatte and a strong passion for food and wine. He makes every trip to Napa memorable, exciting... More
