Great experience. Didn’t expect that it is so much fun to do. It was really something I would recommend. The tour guide and driver were very nice and informative. Everyone in the tour was nice. As the tour goes on and after tasting so many wines, everyone was just laughing and dancing in the bus.

We had such a great time on this adventure!
I would recommend.
We visited a total of three wineries which were all great only downside was that the two last wineries were crowded and waiting in long lines for our tasting was not fun. Other than that it was great!
Response from Host, Sept 2026
🎉 YAY! We are SO thrilled you had an amazing adventure with us! Reviews like this make our whole team do a happy dance! 🕺🍷
We LOVE that you got to experience three incredible wineries — Temecula wine country never disappoints! And thank you for the honest feedback about the wait times at the last two stops. We completely understand — no one wants to spend their wine adventure standing in line when there's so much delicious wine to sip! We'll definitely keep that in mind when planning our future tours so we can keep the good times flowing as smoothly as possible. 🚐✨
We hope to have you back on the bus again soon — next time will be even better! Cheers to you and your crew! 🥂🍇

This is not a trolley tour. Do not be fooled.
There are many pictures in the website that lead you to believe it is a trolley. It is not.
Response from Host, Sept 2026
We appreciate all feedback, but we must respectfully address several inaccuracies in this review so future guests have the full picture.
Your group booked a "Guaranteed Go" ticket, which means your tour departs no matter how many guests are booked — whether it's 2 guests or 24. You booked on a Thursday, which is a slower day for wine tours. Your party of 4, plus 2 additional guests, brought the total to 6 guests for the day. The information you state was missing is, in fact, clearly listed on the booking page you used. Under "What's Included," the vehicle is explicitly described as: "Limousine Trolley, Limousine Bus, or SUV transportation based on number of total seats booked." This is not hidden — it is part of the standard listing details that every guest has access to before booking.
We have confirmed directly with the third-party platform, and the listing shows exactly what was included and excluded at the time of your reservation. As you acknowledged to us directly, you did not read the full description prior to booking. It is not the responsibility of our company to ensure that guests who book through a third-party system read the information provided to them.
Based on the group size — exactly as the listing states — you were transported in our Mercedes Sprinter Limousine. You received the full tour experience: 3 wineries, tasting cards at each stop, guide, photos, and bottled water — everything described in the listing, plus a personal charcuterie box for each guest. We were paid $107.20 per guest.
To clarify how a "Guaranteed Go" ticket works: your tour is guaranteed to depart no matter how many guests are booked — whether it's 2 guests or 24. We are one of the only companies in Temecula that will run a tour at this price for as few as 2 guests rather than canceling the night before due to low bookings or charging a higher rate. We offer multiple vehicle types specifically so we never have to cancel a tour for low seat sales — something most other companies do routinely. The vehicle used is matched to the total group size for the day, as stated in the listing.
Our trolley does run most days where at least 14 seats are booked and has not been already booked out private this vehicle seats 24 guests. Sprinters seat 13. Our Trolley is one of only two fully limousine trolleys in Southern California featuring a bridal balcony on the back where guests can step outside and enjoy the ride with the other one located in Sandiego. Our website and marketing showcase our full fleet — trolleys, limousine buses, and Sprinters — because we offer all of them depending on group size. That is not misleading; it is an accurate representation of the vehicles we operate. We have been running tours in Temecula for over 11 years and are one of the only companies that operates 7 days a week, offering both shared/open-seated tours and fully private tours.
If you had let us know that your group of 4 on a Thursday wanted to ensure going out on the trolley, we would have happily booked the vehicle privately for you at the appropriate rate and run it for your group. Instead, you booked the most economical ticket available — which still includes the full tour experience with a personal charcuterie box for each guest — and you booked it through a third party rather than reaching out to us directly. Had you contacted our booking agent or me directly, we could have answered any questions and made sure you understood exactly what you were booking.
We strongly recommend that all guests booking through platforms such as TripAdvisor, Viator, Groupon, GetYourGuide, and similar sites also take the time to visit the service provider's own website and contact them directly with any questions. That way, when you don't take the time to read everything the third-party platform shows you, you won't be surprised when the experience is different than you expected. There are four trolley companies located in Temecula, and all of us operate differently, with different minimum seating requirements for each vehicle type used.
Finally, you were sent clear instructions via Viator to use the provided link to fill out your waivers before your tour. You did not read any of the emails sent to you or follow the instructions provided to ensure your group was checked in correctly before arriving. Because third-party platforms do not provide contracted companies with guest email addresses, we are only able to reach you by sending emails through them — and you were sent multiple, none of which you reviewed.
We delivered exactly the tour experience described at booking. We welcome a direct conversation if you'd like to discuss this further, but the review as written does not accurately reflect the product, the listing, or the service provided.

Super fun and went to wineries we hadn’t been to before. Kurt was a great host. We definitely recommend!
Response from Host, Sept 2026
Thank you Brian We love hearing this! 🍷✨ Discovering new wineries is one of the best parts of the experience — Temecula's wine country is full of hidden gems just waiting to be explored!
Kurt is absolutely one of our favorites and we know he had just as much fun showing you around! 🥂🎉 He'll be so happy to hear the kind words!
Thank you so much for the recommendation — it means everything to a small, family-run business like ours! We hope to see you back on the trolley soon, ready to discover even MORE amazing wineries! 🚌🍇

It was a very fun experience! We learned a lot about wine and enjoyed our driver, Penny
very much. She stayed with us at both wineries. Great time!

A girls' day out with your sisters and daughter? That's exactly the kind of memory we live to create. We love that every winery felt unique — that's something we put a lot of care into, making sure each stop has its own personality and story to tell. 🍇
So glad the experience was worth every penny, and we hope you and your amazing crew come back for another adventure in wine country soon! We'll be ready with more pours and more fun. 🥂

Penny and her husband were amazing hosts, and we loved the group that was also participating on our wine tour. Absolutely beautiful countryside and the wine was delicious. Penny was the best in teaching us the proper process in tasting wine.
Response from Host, Jun 2026
Thanks so much, Dion! We loved celebrating your anniversary with you on the Franklund Anniversary Wine Tour. Penny and Kurt had a blast hosting you, and we’re so happy you enjoyed the group, the beautiful Temecula countryside, and all the delicious wines.
It means a lot to hear you loved the wine tasting education too — we’re big believers that learning the “how” makes the whole experience even more fun (and way less intimidating). We hope to see you back for another adventure in Temecula Wine Country soon!
Our tour guide Penny was the best! Very knowledgeable and funny. Taught us things about wine without making anyone feel bad for not knowing certain things. The wineries we visited were excellent! I will definitely do another tour in the near future.
Response from Host, May 2026
Reply from Little Bus Tours:
Antwoine and Barbie, you two absolutely made our day — THANK YOU! 🍷
It was such a joy having you both with us, and I have to say, you were exactly the kind of guests that remind me why I love what I do. When a group is engaged, laughing, and genuinely curious about wine, it makes the whole experience that much more magical for me too!
That is always my goal — to make wine feel fun and approachable for everyone, no matter where you are on your wine journey. There are truly no wrong answers when it comes to what you love in a glass, and you both embraced that perfectly! 😄
So glad you loved the wineries we handpicked for the day — Temecula's wine country never disappoints when you know where to go, and you two were right in the middle of the best of it!
I hope you are enjoying all of the wonderful wines you picked up along the way — and especially that bourbon barrel wine! That one is truly special and I have a feeling it is not going to last very long in your house! 🥃🍷
I cannot wait to see you both back on the bus for your next adventure — we will make it just as unforgettable, I promise. Until then, keep exploring and trusting those palates!
Cheers and so much love, Penny Miller Little Bus Tours | Award-Winning Wine Tours, Temecula CA 🏆
The whole group had a great time experiencing 3 different wineries. Our host was Shawn and he was an amazing. Great experience and will be doing this again!
Response from Host, Apr 2026
This is the kind of review that makes our day—thank you! I’m so glad your whole group had a blast hitting three different wineries (that “3 stops, 1 epic day” combo is hard to beat). And yes… Shawn is pretty amazing, and we’ll make sure he sees your shoutout.
Next time you’re back, you know what to do—round two, same crew, and we’ll save you a seat on the bus!
Very helpful driver. Awesome experience. The driver was able to answer all of the questions we had and was able to give us tips on wines at every location we stopped. The wineries were great.
Response from Host, Apr 2026
Thank you so much for the review! We’re really happy to hear you had an awesome experience and that your driver was able to answer all your questions and give you helpful wine tips at each stop. That’s one of our favorite parts—making the day feel fun, easy, and a little more “insider” at every winery.
So glad you loved the wineries, and we’d love to host you again anytime!
a lot of fun on and off the bus with a very helpful and informative tour guide! the vineyards were beautiful with a wide selection of wine
Response from Host, Apr 2026
Thank you so much for coming out with us! I love hearing you had a blast both on the bus and at the wineries—that’s exactly the kind of day we want you to have. And I’m so glad your guide made it easy, fun, and informative along the way.
Those vineyard views are hard to beat, and we’re thrilled you enjoyed the variety of wines. Come back and ride with us again soon!
The driver was knowledgeable and easy to talk to. The drive was pleasant. The wineries were not crowed and the poeple pouring the wines were knowable about their craft. We had fun.
Response from Host, Apr 2026
Thank you so much for sharing this! We’re really glad you felt comfortable with your driver—easy conversation and a smooth, pleasant ride are exactly what we want for your day.

Great experience. Didn’t expect that it is so much fun to do. It was really something I would recommend. The tour guide and driver were very nice and informative. Everyone in the tour was nice. As the tour goes on and after tasting so many wines, everyone was just laughing and dancing in the bus.
Response from Host, Apr 2026
Thank you so much for the wonderful review! We love hearing that the day was even more fun than you expected. Our guides work hard to keep it informative, relaxed, and easy to enjoy—and it’s the best when the whole group clicks and the bus turns into a little party with laughing and dancing.
We’d be honored to host you again anytime you’re back in Temecula!
Very informative and fun experience. For experienced and beginner wine tasters. The host was charismatic and made the experience memorable. Would definitely recommend 10/10.
Response from Host, Apr 2026
Thank you so much for the 10/10 review! We love hearing you had a fun, informative day—and that it felt great whether you’re a total beginner or already know your way around a wine list.
Your shoutout about our host being charismatic seriously means a lot (that’s the secret sauce for a memorable tour). Thanks again for recommending us, and we can’t wait to have you back for another round!
It was a wild and crazy tour day. Penny, our guide, was AMAZING!!! Her knowledge of wine (2nd level somm), history of the regions and great spirit and attitude. We happened to be included with a group of vibrant and beautiful people on our limo trolley. I won’t forget how kind and welcoming our group was and God bless our driver and media specialist that kept us safe and engaged.
Response from Host, Apr 2026
Thank you so much for this incredible review! I’m so happy you had a wild and crazy tour day in the best way—and that the limo trolley group turned into one of those rare, unforgettable crews that just clicks.
Thank you for the kind words about me, too. It means a lot that you enjoyed the wine knowledge and the local history—those little stories are such a fun part of the day. And I love that you shouted out our driver and media specialist as well; keeping everyone safe, comfortable, and engaged is always the priority.
We’d love to have you back anytime for another Temecula adventure!
Great tour guide with expert knowledge on wine and the local wineries! The trolley that drove us around was updated to be almost a fancy limo-bus that is enclosed with A/C and surround sound speakers which was extra nice bc of all the rain this weekend. We saw another trolley on the road that wasn’t enclosed and everyone looked wet and cold..
Response from Host, Apr 2026
Thank you so much for this review—this made us laugh (and also feel very grateful for that enclosed trolley!). We’re thrilled you loved your guide’s wine knowledge and the local winery insight—that’s exactly what we aim for.
And YES… rainy weekends are when the “fancy limo-bus trolley” really earns its keep: enclosed, warm, A/C when you need it, and surround sound for the vibe. We definitely prefer “dry + dancing” over “wet + shivering.”
Come ride with us again—hopefully in sunshine next time, but we’ll be ready either way!
SO FUN!!! We were able to play our own choice of music on the trolley and we danced and danced! The wineries were awesome.. well organized and timed. overall a great experience with a great staff and guide.
Response from Host, Apr 2026
YESSS—this is exactly the energy we love! Thank you for the awesome review. I’m so glad you got the trolley rocking with your own playlist (the dance floor is officially wherever the trolley is).
And we love hearing everything felt well organized and perfectly timed at the wineries—our team works hard to keep it fun and smooth. Come back soon and we’ll do it all over again!
Had an awesome time! Kurt was a great guide who knows about wine and the details about each winery. Had plenty of time to relax and taste the wines - not rushed. Highly recommend this tour!!
