Wine Tour Limo from Salinas

Carmel Valley, River Road, Santa Lucia Highlands — world-class wine country, 30 minutes from your front door.

Salinas sits in the middle of Monterey wine country

Most people think of Napa when they think California wine country. Salinas locals know that Carmel Valley is 30 minutes away and arguably more beautiful, and the River Road and Santa Lucia Highlands corridor is equally close going south. Bernardus, Talbott, Hahn, Scheid, Pessagno — award-winning producers with stunning tasting rooms and far fewer crowds than Napa ever sees.

The only challenge with a wine tour is the driving. Limoscene solves that entirely. We pick up at your Salinas address, drive your group to the first winery, follow the day's itinerary, and get everyone home safely at the end. Nobody stays sober. Nobody worries about the drive back from a two-hour Bernardus tasting.
