Custom Itineraries Built Around You
One of the biggest advantages of booking with Athens Party Bus Company is that we give you complete control over your itinerary. Unlike pre-packaged tours that only visit select locations, we let you choose exactly which wineries or breweries you want to visit, how long you want to spend at each one, and what time you want to start and finish. Want to hit three vineyards before lunch, add a brewery stop on the way back, or schedule a dinner reservation downtown? No problem—we’ll follow your plan to the letter.
Not sure where to go? Our team can recommend popular routes based on your group’s interests and budget. For example, a classic Athens wine tour might include Boutier Winery in Danielsville, Sweet Acre Farms in Alto, and Yonah Mountain Vineyards in Cleveland—all within a 90-minute drive. Beer lovers might prefer a loop that hits Akademia Brewing Company, Terrapin Beer Company, Creature Comforts, and Southern Brewing Company. We can also organize overnight trips to destinations like Dahlonega, Helen, or even Asheville if you want to make it a weekend affair.
Just tell us what you have in mind, and we’ll build a custom package that fits.
Athens Brewery Bus Rentals
Athens has one of the best craft beer scenes in Georgia, and a private bus is the most convenient way to experience it with a group. Hit all the local favorites—Terrapin Beer Company, Creature Comforts Brewing Co., Akademia Brewing Company, Southern Brewing Company, and Normaltown Brewing—without worrying about parking or designating a driver. Your bus will drop you off right at the entrance, wait while you enjoy a flight or take a tour, and then shuttle you to the next stop on your list. Planning a bachelor or bachelorette party? Ask about our party buses with wraparound seating, color-changing LED lights, and Bluetooth sound systems so you can keep the energy up between breweries.
Athens Winery Bus Rentals
While there are only a few wineries within Athens city limits, several excellent options are located within a short drive. Schedule a tasting at Tanglewood Vineyards, a family-run vineyard about 30 minutes south of downtown, or head east to City Scape Winery in Pelzer, SC, known for its award-winning reds and picturesque setting. For a full-day excursion, book a bus to the North Georgia Wine Country region around Dahlonega, where you can visit multiple wineries such as Wolf Mountain Vineyards, Kaya Vineyard & Winery, and Montaluce Winery & Restaurant. No matter which route you choose, your driver will make sure everyone gets home comfortably at the end of the day.

How Much Does Winery Transportation Cost in Athens?

Hourly rates typically range from $150 to $450+ on weekdays and $150 to $500+ on weekends. Full-day packages run $1,000–$2,800 depending on mileage and duration.

How Far in Advance Should I Book Wine Tour Transportation in Athens?
We recommend booking your bus as early as possible to ensure the best selection and rates. Spring and fall are peak seasons for winery and brewery tours, so availability can be limited if you wait until the last minute. Ideally, reserve your vehicle at least 4–6 weeks in advance, especially if you have a large group or specific vehicle preference. We can accommodate last-minute requests if something is available, but it’s always better to plan ahead.
