Asheville NC Girls Trip on a Damn Good Transportation Winery Tour

Asheville's known for their beer scene, but in and around the city, there are plenty of beautiful wineries and vineyards that are worth the drive.

If you're having a bachelorette party or planning a girl's trip in Asheville, these are some of the best wineries in, and around, the city... and all within 45 minutes of downtown. By the way, these are in no particular order.

DOOR-TO-DOOR TRANSPORTATION

Any company you hire to take you on a winery tour should be offering door-to-door transportation. First and foremost, for safety, as you will be enjoying yourself. Plus, this is part of the fun with you and your crew! Damn Good Transportation comes with string lights, a Polaroid, branded koozies, local snacks, a cooler, stereo system and other of thoughtful touches that make the ride as memorable as the wineries!

ITINERARY

Some groups know exactly where they want to go while others may lean on a company to make suggestions and layout a blueprint. Many times, it falls somewhere in between. Each group has personal preferences and tastes, so expressing what you're into and what matters such as atmosphere, distance, types of wines etc all become part of the plan. Here's a good blog posts you can use as a starting point if you need help.

GUIDED VS UNGUIDED

Many wine tour companies are really offering winery transportation while some have the driver that doubles as a guide, gets of the van with you and is there every step of the way. Many offer both. You have to decide what you prefer and inquire when booking.

TASTINGS VS BY THE GLASS

Whether you use a tour company or not, you can arrange for tastings at the winery. Some companies that offer the all-inclusive experience can be there to elaborate on styles, regions, notes etc but if that's not important to you, you can also do that without your guide.

RESERVATIONS

Many of the winery tour and transportation companies will call ahead on your behalf to reserve a table or make such arrangements. Just ask!

Fun and Safe Asheville Winery Tour Transportation

The drive is part of the fun! Not only can you add to the experience by having your crew all under one roof, but you also don't have to worry about drinking and driving, get to have fun, and not piece together multiple Ubers and Lyfts, which are spotty in Asheville to begin with.

Enjoy door-to-door transportation in a fun and safe environment when you book with Damn Good Transportation who provides Polaroids, personable drivers, snacks, coolers, string lights, bluetooth and much more!
