THE MOVIE STAR EXPERIENCE
Leave the noisy, crowded party buses behind and experience Traverse City's premier White wine tour in true luxury. You don't have to book or rent an old retired school bus to go on a wine tour here in Traverse City! The VIP Movie Stars Wine Tour takes guests through Old Mission Peninsula's finest wineries, all while riding in a GMC Yukon or Cadillac Escalades—no buses, no rush, just spectacular wine, scenery, and service. For smaller groups and couples, it makes no sense to ride on a mass transit bus when you can arrive in style.
Led by Magic Mike and expert wine connoisseurs, this tour is more than just basic bus transportation—it's a curated wine experience with personalized recommendations. Visit four iconic wineries, each known for their exceptional white wine, reds, including:
Hawthorne Vineyards – Sample the famous Cherry Splendor (very sweet)
Bowers Harbor Vineyards – Savor ICE Wine(limited supply), ICE Cider
Chateau Chantal – Enjoy the Vidal Blanc and Estate ICE Wines
Brys Estate – Taste the famous Froze'
Bonobo Winery - Experience the sweet Lemonade Lavender slushy
ICE wine is not for everyone, but this tour will feature all types of wines, something for everyone. The ICE Wine at Chateau Chantal was featured at a White House Dinner during the Barack Obama administration. Ryan Reynolds, Michael J. Fox, and others were in attendance. If you are not familiar with ICE Wine, the longer a grape stays on a vine, the more sugar content. ICE Wine is picked at the peak of sweetness during January or February. ICE Wine is harvested and processed while frozen- Thus ICE Wine... It's a sweet, syrupy dessert wine, you have to like that sort of thing.
