Can I Hire a Driver for a Wine Tour in Portland?

Yes — Portland Private Town Car provides chauffeured transportation for Willamette Valley wine tours, so everyone in your group can enjoy the tastings without anyone needing to drive.

How Wine Tour Bookings Work

Tell us your group size, preferred wineries or region, and how long you'd like the day to run. Your chauffeur handles the driving and timing between stops while you focus on the visit.

Choosing Your Vehicle

Small groups or couples typically ride comfortably in our Cadillac Escalade ESV ($120/hour, up to 6 passengers). Larger parties — bachelorette trips, birthday groups, or multi-couple outings — fit well in our Mercedes Sprinter van ($150/hour, up to 12 passengers).

Popular Wine Country Routes

The Willamette Valley, including areas like Dundee Hills and the Yamhill-Carlton district, is a short drive from Portland and well suited to a full- or half-day chauffeured tour.

Why Hire a Driver Instead of Renting a Car

No one in your group has to sit out the tastings as a designated driver, and you avoid navigating unfamiliar rural roads after a day of wine.

Pricing

Wine tours are billed at our standard hourly rates — Sedan $90/hr, SUV $120/hr, Sprinter van $150/hr — with no separate tour fee.
