OUR WINERY-BY-THE-SEAT PUBLIC TOURS
Are you a wine enthusiast? Maybe you’re curious about local wineries? Or maybe you just like long, relaxing afternoons with your friends? Regardless, let Top Shelf’s winery tours show off central Indiana’s fabulous wineries! From an urban setting to vineyards nestled in the countryside, these wineries offer lots to explore…wonderful scenery, unique artwork, beautiful landscaping, hospitality, and of course the wines themselves.
On our public tours, you pay by the seat and don’t need to rent the entire bus. You’ll make friends with others doing the same thing for the day, and make memories that will last a lifetime! We have designated pickup spots and our stops are pre-planned for public tours.
Winery tasting fees and driver gratuity are not included.
We reserve the right to enforce a minimum number of guests per bus rule of six people for the Indy tours and eight people for the excursion tours for the entire bus.
All cancellations or reschedules must be made 72 hours in advance of your scheduled tour. Please contact us at CustomerService@TopShelf.tours to do this. If you notify us with at least a 72 hour notice until the start of the tour, you can get either a full refund or move your tour to an alternate date. If you notify us within less than 72 hours, no refunds or rescheduling will be allowed. If you don't receive a confirmation email within a few minutes after booking, your email address was probably entered incorrectly. Please contact us to correct it.

Winery Tour Helpful Information
Central Indiana has many extraordinary wineries. Now is your chance to visit some of them if you have a smaller group and can’t book an entire bus.
Spend a relaxing Sunday with your friends and make new ones while on one of our buses. The buses have limo-style seating and an excellent bluetooth stereo system to make your ride more enjoyable.
You have your choice to be picked up at Shallo’s Restaurant in Greenwood or Tastings Wine Bar downtown. Also, if you have a lot of people and you’re not too far off our route, we can make special arrangements to pick you up elsewhere.
We’ll visit three wineries. We try not to rush the stops, but keep in mind that due to the distance between the locations, some tours might take longer to complete. Sit back and relax while your tour driver takes you on a delightful trip you’ll not soon forget. We have no affiliation with any of the wineries that we may visit.
FYI…sometimes the wineries have events that make it necessary for us to make substitutions to our itinerary. Sampling prices will vary per location but are typically about $5 per person, and some offer them for free. Sample fees are not included. Please remember that our drivers try hard to keep everyone safe and happy, and they definitely appreciate any gratuity you’d like to share!
We do need at least five people on these tours to make them fun and viable. It is best to get a good group of friends to go book along with you so we can guarantee that the trip will go!
Lastly, if you’d like to plan your own itinerary and your own pickup locations and times, rent the entire bus for a custom wine tour!
