Erica was nice and very knowledgeable about the wineries, their owners, and their wines. She had prepared a booklet for us before the tour, listing all the wines we were going to taste, so we could simply mark the wine we liked. The Virginia cheese she served during break was excellent (who knew Virginia made good cheese!!). Our family enjoyed... More

I am so happy that I was able to book a tour with Arcady Private Wine Tours. The vineyards out in Charlottesville are not right next to each other and it was really great to have a knowledgable and friendly tour guide to navigate through the roads. It was relaxing and very much enjoyable. My husband and I had an... More

Spectacular fall weekend in Charlottesville highlighted by spending time with Chirs at some of the best wineries on the East Coast. Highly recommend the tour to maximize your time. Glad we scheduled on Friday as Saturday was insane with fall foliage crowds. We especially liked the fact the Chris was flexible enough to cater the tour to our tastes. King... More

My boyfriend and decided to do the wine tour for my 30th birthday. I am so happy with our choice. The other couple ended up not making the tour so Erika ended up giving us a private wine tour...how special! She showed up right on time and gave us plenty of information to prepare us for our day. We got... More

They say Virginian wines are emerging but I was sceptical, so after *extensive* internet research on wine tours I chose Arcady for my taste of the Monticello wine trail & I was not disappointed. Yes, I've only had the one local tour but in my experience I can not imagine anyone would be more knowledgeable & enthusiastic as our guide... More

This is the way to go if you want to experience the best wine tasting in the Charlottesville area. Chris and Erica are wonderful host and great tour guides. All the wineries we visited knew Chris by sight and treated us like special guests. At each of the stops we were treated to tastings of wines not on the normal... More

My husband and I had the most outstanding wine tour with Chris from Arcady. We visited the King Family Vineyard, Pollak Vineyards, Afton Mountain Winery, and Veritas Vineyards. Each place had absolutely breathtaking views and beautiful facilities. It was a fabulous way to spend our last afternoon in Charlottesville ~ being chauffeured around and drinking all types of wine without... More

My wife and I are not big wine people. Arcady was great. The showed wines from different winery's and we learned a lot. Eric's knowledge and hospitality was outstanding and the mid-trip cheese plate was delicious.

Called looking for a party of 10. Called to set up based solely on Tripadvisor. Chris answered that he can handle up to six. Instantly was able to refer me to other vendors that could accommodate our larger group. Selfless and still serving. This is why Arcady has such a great rating. Not even customer's and still serving. Thank you... More
