How it Works

1

Book

Book your shuttle pass! To ensure a seat on the shuttle, we highly recommend booking your shuttle passes online before you arrive. If you have eight or more people in your party, be sure to arrange tasting reservations with the wineries in advance. To make the most of your day, we suggest making winery reservations in route order.

Enjoy!

Enjoy the convenience of 290 Wine Shuttle while you explore as many wineries as you’d like along the 290 Wine Trail for the day. We arrive at each winery every 15 minutes so you can hop on, and hop off as many times as you’d like throughout the day. Visit, shop, and taste as long as you like at each winery, then simply catch the next shuttle when you’re ready to visit your next winery. Our shuttles run until 6pm every Saturday, ensuring you will have plenty of time to visit as many wineries as you want!

FAQs

We can sum it up in one word – FREEDOM! Our shuttle gives you access to 18 wineries and breweries with pickups every 15 minutes. You can visit as many, or as few, as you would like on your own schedule. You can’t say the same with a private tour, where you are at the mercy of the tour guide, dawdling guests, and a tight schedule! Choose the option that gives you flexibility, both logistically and economically!

Fun Friday &
SIPPIN’ SUNDAY

Wine Shuttle

Just because our primary shuttle service runs on Saturdays doesn’t mean you can’t have fun on Fridays and Sundays too! 290 Wine Shuttle is now offering shuttle service every Friday and Sunday, where you can choose from twelve fabulous wineries along the 290 Wine Trail for just $49.99 per person. For your convenience, we’ll hold your purchased merchandise on the shuttle for the day. We depart from downtown Fredericksburg, Texas, at Inn on Barons Creek. Please note that the Fun Friday shuttle has only one pickup at 11am and Sippin’ Sunday has one pickup at noon. This is one of the best ways to beat the weekend crowds. See you there!
