    Keuka Lake Tour

    We had a great time with Ron! We aren't from the area, so he gave us interesting background about the lake and surrounding area. Super friendly and fun, and the wineries were amazing! Very well paced tour.

    Keuka wine tour

    Ron Smith was excellent driver/ tour guide. Great personality. Very informative.

    Definitely coming back

    This was my first time on a wine tour and I could not be happier with the decision I made. Having it be just my group and the driver was perfect especially with such a great driver.

    Response from the operator: Hello, Thanks for the five star review. I'm glad you had a great time on your wine tour. Please contact us again on your next trip to the Finger Lakes!

    10/10 Crust Beer & Wine Tour Experience!

    We had an amazing time on our Keuka Lake Winery Tour for my best friends Bachelorette! Christy was amazing and so much fun & even took all of our group pictures for us at the wineries! She even sent a text after words to thank us, she was so sweet! The tour included 4 wineries which doesn't seem like much, but by the end that is MORE than enough! Crush Beer and Wine did all the planning and scheduling for us and once we got there we didn't have to worry about paying anything besides tips which was great! I think the price was reasonable & was worth it to have everything done for us! I would definitely use them again in the future and make sure to request Christy!

    Response from the operator: Thanks for much for the review. We'll be sure to share your kind words with Christy. Please call on us again for the next bachelorette or when you want to spend a great time in the Finger Lakes!

    The best bachelorette

    We cannot say enough wonderful things about our driver, Chris! From the moment our bachelorette wine tour began, he went above and beyond in every possible way. He was incredibly organized, always one step ahead, making sure our reservations were ready and everything ran smoothly throughout the day. He helped us on and off the bus, loaded and unloaded all of our wine purchases, and even carried everything inside for us at the end of the tour. What truly made the experience special was how invested he was in making our day memorable. He happily took countless photos for our group, making sure we captured every moment without anyone being left out. His professionalism, kindness, attention to detail, and genuine care for our group exceeded every expectation. He made the bride feel special and helped create a stress-free, unforgettable day for all of us. If you're lucky enough to have him as your driver, you're in the best hands. Thank you for making our bachelorette celebration so perfect!

    Response from the operator: Hello! Thank you for your kind words about our tour and about Chris. We're glad to hear you had a great time!

    Keuka Lake Winery Tour: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Ithaca.

    How much does Keuka Lake Winery Tour cost?

    +

    Prices start at $269 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Ithaca usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does Keuka Lake Winery Tour take?

    +

    Plan for about 5 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Ithaca is not rushed.

    Is Keuka Lake Winery Tour worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 78 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.9/5 across 65 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable family friendly in Ithaca, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule Keuka Lake Winery Tour?

    +

    No. This experience is sold on a non-refundable basis, so only book a date you are confident about. Similar experiences in the city do offer free cancellation if flexibility matters more than price.

    Is Keuka Lake Winery Tour suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 5-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Keuka Lake Winery Tour?

    +

    Around 23 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Ithaca can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

    What should I bring or wear?

    +

    Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Ithaca and add a light layer if any part of the 5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Keuka Lake Winery Tour start and how do I get there?

    +

    The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Ithaca within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

    What are the best things to do in Ithaca?

    +

    Ithaca, NY packs its best experiences into walkable neighborhoods, local food, and day trips nearby. Outty ranks every bookable tour and activity in Ithaca by rating quality, review depth, booking demand and value, so you can see the standouts before you book. On Outty we rank every Ithaca experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Seneca Lake South Wine Tastings Tour, Wonderful Watkins Glen Scavenger Hunt, Finger Lakes NY: Ithaca-Watkins Glen Self-Guided Audio Tour. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

    When is the best time to visit Ithaca?

    +

    Spring and fall bring the best weather and lighter crowds in Ithaca, while summer has the widest choice of tours and evening activities. Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

    How many days do you need in Ithaca?

    +

    Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

    Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

    +

    Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.

    What is included in Keuka Lake Winery Tour?

    +

    Included: Lunch available on the Kings & Queens plus Lunch tour only; Wine tastings and educational tour through a selection of wineries; Driver/guide; and Hotel pick-up at select hotels if requested. Not included: Gratuities; and Food and drinks, unless specified. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.

    Where is the meeting point for Keuka Lake Winery Tour?

    +

    Look for the Crush vehicle. Hotel pickup is not included, so plan your own transport and arrive 15 minutes early.

    What languages is Keuka Lake Winery Tour offered in?

    +

    It runs in English. Pick your language when choosing a date and time, as not every departure runs in every language.

    Will I get instant confirmation and a mobile ticket for Keuka Lake Winery Tour?

    +

    Confirmation is sent by the operator after booking, usually within 48 hours; if it is not confirmed you are not charged. Mobile tickets are accepted, so you can show the voucher on your phone.

    Is Keuka Lake Winery Tour wheelchair or stroller accessible?

    +

    The operator notes: Infants and small children can ride in a pram or stroller. If accessibility is critical, contact the operator after booking to confirm arrangements for your date.

    What happens to Keuka Lake Winery Tour if the weather is bad?

    +

    This experience depends on good weather. If it is canceled because of poor weather, you are offered a different date or a full refund.
