First and foremost I appreciate the professionalism shown by Cadye with her prompt emails and answering all of my questions. She and Clint put together an awesome itinerary, our only ask was to tour Slate Theory. Everything else was suggested and curated by Cellar Rat. Second I appreciate Clint, for the whole experience the day of the tour. We paid for a private tour and it was just that. He sent a text the morning of the tour to let me know when he was set to arrive. He arrived 1 minute early in the SUV and greeted us when we came out. He had a cooler in the truck with ice and water. He is well versed in all things vino and super down-to-earth. We started the tour at Texas Wine Collective where they rolled out the red carpet. We were doing the tour on a Monday so we pretty much had the whole winery/tasting room to ourselves. Sandy at Texas Wine Collective was awesome, ask for her if you visit. While we did our tasting, Clint went to grab our lunch from Fresh Pickens. The food was AWESOME! It hit the spot definitely after all the wine and cheese Sandy gave us! After lunch, we took some photos around the property then hopped in the SUV and on to the next winery, Kuhlman Cellars. Where we were met by Malachi. Malachi served us a flight of 5 wines, 3 selected by Kuhlman and 2 selected by my wife and me. We took a couple of photos out near the vines then headed on to the last winery, Slate Theory. Slate Theory's tasting room is by far the best experience. Words can't explain it. By the time we got to Slate Theory we didn't really want to learn about the wine, we just wanted to drink; and that we did. We hung out there for about an hour before heading back to the Airbnb. Great day of drinking! Met some awesome people and got to enjoy my wife on our anniversary. Clint knew everybody by the way, definitely makes the difference when you visit because you feel like family at each location. The only thing I would change about the tour would be to add an actual tour of the facilities and vineyard to the experience. I'm a visual learner and it would be cool to tour the distillation area and barreling process while learning about the wines. All in all, I give Cellar Rat Tours 5 STARS "A+++". PS: Slate Theory charged us for the wine tasting and Clint stepped in and handled the situation and orchestrated the refund to our credit card. This guy does it all! He's our main man for real. Thank you, Clint and Cadye! Many blessings to you and your business!

It looks like an airport shuttle, but the inside is so cute. Bench style seats line the inside walls. Wine bottle motif adorns the ceiling, along with colorful lights that change colors. The sound system is loud and made it fun listening to our music and for karaokeing. We loved being able to make our own itinerary and visit wineries we wanted to go to. All and all, it was the perfect day! Thank you Adam for being such a gentleman and taking such good care of us. We will be back to see you soon.

Communication was top-notch; he was professional and prompt. We especially appreciated Gary's recommendations and local insight regarding which tasting rooms to visit. His suggestions for where to grab a delicious lunch were spot on and truly elevated our entire itinerary. It's rare to find a business owner so hands-on and committed to ensuring your day is perfectly curated. Our driver, Steve, truly made the day. He strikes the perfect balance of being professional yet completely relaxed, which set the exact right tone for our outing. Steve's flexibility was a standout feature of the tour--he was happy to go with the flow and never made us feel rushed. The party bus itself was fantastic. Even with our large group, the vehicle was incredibly spacious and comfortable, allowing us to move between stops in style without ever feeling crowded. It provided the perfect atmosphere to keep the energy high between tastings. Between Gary's expert planning and Steve's laid-back, accommodating nature behind the wheel, Reserve Tours exceeded all our expectations. If you want a stress-free day exploring the best of the Hill Country without checking your watch every five minutes, look no further.
