Operated by Winding Road Wine Tours · New Braunfels, Texas
New Braunfels sits at the edge of Texas Hill Country, a short drive from the Guadalupe and Comal rivers where limestone hills roll into riparian canyons. Custom Tours by the Hour (Fri - Sun) from Winding Road turns that landscape into your private playground: a 13-seat shuttle and a driver who follows your plan, whether that means winery hopping on rocky calcareous soils, stopping for craft beer in Main Street taprooms, or slipping down to Canyon Lake for sunset. You get the freedom to stitch together vineyard tastings and brewery flights without the navigation or parking hassles. Winding Road bills by the hour with a four-hour minimum, includes complimentary water, light snacks, a cooler for purchases, group photos, and free door-to-door pickup across our home zone (Gruene, New Braunfels, Wimberley, Canyon Lake & San Marcos). Tastings are purchased on-site so you can pick small-production wineries or well-known tasting rooms based on taste and not a preset route. Bring your own drinks for the ride—BYOB on these private tours gives groups flexibility while the driver handles the logistics. What makes this experience sing in the Hill Country is how it puts the region’s geology and hospitality on a timeline you control. Vineyards here cling to thin limestone over porous bedrock, which produces bright, mineral-driven wines; live oaks and bluebonnets punctuate country roads between tasting rooms; and the Guadalupe and Comal rivers offer easy add-ons for a swim, float, or picnic. For a bachelorette, family reunion, or a foodie day with friends, the shuttle’s 13-passenger capacity keeps the vibe social without large-group constraints. Practicalities are straightforward: tours run Friday through Sunday, guests must be 21+, and Winding Road is an independent operator unaffiliated with the venues you visit. The operator’s flexible start times and willingness to customize routes mean you can prioritize a favorite vineyard, schedule lunch downtown, or make a late stop for sunset at Canyon Lake. Because tastings and venue fees are paid separately, you can manage budget and avoid packaged-tour limitations. Booking is simple: Winding Road offers a full refund 14 days prior and lets you reschedule up to 72 hours before. Tours have a four-hour minimum and seat up to 13 guests. Tastings are paid at each stop so groups control spending and support small producers. The driver manages logistics and safety so your day focuses on tasting, views, and company.
