We did a wine tour on Black Friday. Cindy was our driver and she was amazing. They kept in contact with me and answered any questions I had. Will definitely use them again in the future!

What a Great trip!. Christine is wonderful, and tailored our trip perfectly! She really knew her stuff, and after the first tasting which was outdoors, we asked if the next could be an indoor and she delivered in a big way! Can't think of anything she could have done to make our experience more fun. You really have the perfect guide in Christine! Our only regret was our time constraints as we will definitely take a much longer tour next time! Thanks again for accommodating our last minute request in such a rewarding way!

I can't say enough wonderful things about this company! Christine was absolutely so lovely to my friends and I for our tour of a couple of wineries this past weekend. We felt like VIP the entire day! She was such a wonderful soul with such a happy and upbeat spirit! Thanks so much Christine!

I highly recommend Van in Black! We rented the 14 passenger van for a bachelorette party for a tour of the wineries in Hendersonville and Tryon. We had Frankie as our driver and he was awesome! Very prompt and accommodating throughout the day. I would love to have him again. Also, Ryan was awesome in the preparation of our day. He gave a list of wineries to try and then coordinated times for us to be there so the wineries were prepared for us! I can't wait to do it again!

Christine was incredible! She picked us up on time, was very personable and passionate. She took us to some incredible wineries and even went out of her way to recommend restaurants and places to stay next time we came back to experience even more wineries in North Carolina. On our way to the wineries she even talked about the area and was just a wonderful person to be around.

I will definitely be requesting her when we come back! I wish I could give it more than 5 stars! It was the highlight of our girls weekend! Christine, if you see this.thank you so much!

Ryan was extremely professional, very knowledgeable and helpful, and Johnny-on-the-spot with any needs! The wineries we visited had great wines, beautiful views, friendly staff, and even good live music (much welcomed especially during Covid). The van was very comfortable, spacious and clean! I highly recommend this as a great get away day with friends, couples or families!

Had a great experience with this touring company. We went to the three wineries in the Boone/Blowing rock area. The van was prompt and the driver/owner was extremely knowledgeable and professional. We had a blast on the tour and will definitely book again!

Great day with great friends made even better by Van In Black. We took a much needed girls day to visit several area vineyards and sample local wines. Van In Black was so professional and knowledgeable. Ryan gave us information on each vineyard and made the day so special. Being able to travel in one vehicle and focus on enjoying company while traveling in luxury made for an exceptionally great day. Highly recommend Van In Black for any group making several stops or day touring in beautiful WNC. Can't wait for another outing!

Ryan did a fabulous job with our party of twelve. We did a few wineries and waterfall views along the way. He was relaxed, courteous and very knowledgeable of the area and made for a great day of fun for our entire party. Would highly recommend.

Ryan took us through a wine tour of the Yadkin Valley in his Mercedes van. It was an awesome day. I've been on several of these tours and truly believe that Ryan provided the best quality service for the best value. He knew all of the wineries, management and was able to call ahead for us for the tastings and for lunch. It was a perfectly enjoyable day. Thanks Ryan! We will be in touch again soon to re-book!

Ryan courteously drove 10 of us around for a lovely wine tour around NC. Ryan's prompt arrival and then calm patience was certainly appreciated while we got all of our passengers and belongings in the van. He was always there to open our doors, lend a hand to help us exit the van, and chat with us when we felt like chatting, He maintained his professional demeanor at all times. Ryan, when asked, even gave us detailed descriptions about the areas we were visiting. We will certainly be asking Ryan with the Van in Black to drive us on our next excursion!

So incredibly glad that we went with Ryan and the Van in Black for our bachelorette party wine tour! Ryan was an expert on the best wineries to visit based on our group's preferences and timeline and was wonderful to communicate with before and during our trip. I had no idea such beautiful vineyards even existed so close to Charlotte, but I will definitely be going back and booking with the Van in Black!

We took the tour from Mountain Brook up to and through the Christmas light display at the Tryon Equestrian center. Ryan was very friendly and a great driver.
