Fredericksburg Wine Tour with Three Winery Stops
Fredericksburg
I contacted Rex with 19th Hole Tours about a month before my birthday trip to Fredricksburg. Myself and three friends wanted to celebrate with a tour of the local wineries. Rex was very helpful and prompt during the booking process. I chose the Birdie package which included three wineries, lunch, waters and snacks for $757. About a week before the trip, I texted Rex our lunch choices and a winery I would like to visit. Everything was all set. The night before the tour Rex texted me and told me Jackson would be conducting our tour and he would be picking us up around 11 am Saturday. Around 11 am Saturday Jackson pulls up to our Airbnb in a small, Lexus hatchback. Before Jackson even came to the door, I texted Rex. I told him I was disappointed; the car is very small and there is no way four adults could be comfortable in such a small car. When I didn’t hear back from him, I really had no choice but to continue with the tour. This was the only thing we had booked for the day and we had no other way to tour the wineries. So, four adult women squeezed into the tiny car and headed to the first winery. Rex responded while we were at the first winery saying Jackson could switch to one of the suburban’s he and his mom drive. Seriously? We were already on the tour why would we want to wait for him to pick up his mom’s suburban? And I paid for the van on his website not his employee’s car. I told him no. We were already out for the day so stopping to change cars would be inconvenient. I again reiterated that the car was very uncomfortable. At the second winery Jackson tells us that Rex would like to buy us a bottle of wine for the inconvenience. Great- that’s the least he could do to make the day a little better. At no time did Jackson say that this was compensation for the being charged so much for the tiny car instead of the van. Next, we headed to our picnic lunch in the Texas hill county. We were given the choice of some park all the way back in Fredricksburg or a lovey stop near where we were. We chose the closer stop with the lovey view. Little did we know it was a Texas highway rest stop. Nothing like eating lunch with truck drivers and the smell of the trash barrels. And the cars and trucks speeding by just added to the ambience. I did reach out to Rex the Monday after the tour to again express my disappointment and ask him to credit me back some of the fee. He refused saying that he bought me a bottle of wine and that was compensation. A few points: No where on 19th Hole’s website does it state that you will be driven in a tiny Lexus. All photos on the website show a van Rex never conveyed to me during the booking process we would be driven in small Lexus. If he had I never would have booked with his company Only one tiny water bottle was offered to us during the day and that was with lunch No snacks were provided Finally, Rex claims that Jackson told us 10% off the cost of the tour or the bottle of wine. Jackson only offered us the bottle of wine and never said it was to compensate for the price of the tour. Why would I ever consider a bottle of wine compensation for paying $757 to be uncomfortably squished in a small car for most of the day. Before you consider booking this tour verify the vehicle and amenities provided. I will never recommend this tour to anyone I know.
Great winery tour with Rex! He communicated details to us prior to the date, picked us up at our hotel right on time, and was very friendly. Van was clean and comfortable. With COVID restrictions we didn’t think we’d get to do tastings, but Rex lined up 3 wineries that had just resumed tastings in the days prior to our visit, so we got the complete winery experience thanks to his knowledge and connections. Our tour was on a Tuesday, and we were the only customers - so it was a private tour. All of the staff at the wineries were very friendly and knowledgeable. Highly recommend this experience.
