Top Syracuse Car Tours

Drive Seneca Lake yourself, with a GPS audio guide that plays automatically as you go. Your booking unlocks the whole lake in the free Wine Trails app: pick your date and starting point, Watkins Glen or Geneva, choose the wineries you want from the 42 mapped along Route 14 and Route 414, and the app builds your personal route with turn-by-turn narration. Narrated stories cover the people behind the tasting rooms: Konstantin Frank and Hermann Wiemer, who proved European vines could survive these winters, the four growers who opened Glenora in 1977, the Fulkersons on land their family has farmed since 1805, the castle at Belhurst, the salt beneath the lake and the Seneca Drums. No group, no schedule, no guide; stop for lunch in Hector or a walk through the Watkins Glen gorge, replay anything, and the audio keeps working when the signal drops between the vineyards, because everything downloads offline. You'll need a car and a designated driver; tastings are paid at each winery.
