Fredericksburg Wine Tours, Told by a Sixth-Generation Native

Private vineyard tours through the Texas Hill Country, guided by the family history that helped build this town.

Fredericksburg is one of the most storied towns in Texas Hill Country wine country, and there is no better way to experience it than with someone whose family helped shape it. Keidel Wine Tours offers private wine tours built for travelers who want more than a tasting glass in their hand. They want the story behind it.

Every tour is guided by Jeff Lawrence, a sixth-generation Fredericksburg native whose family history stretches back to Dr. Wilhelm Keidel, one of the town’s founding physicians. As you travel between some of the best vineyards in Fredericksburg, Jeff shares the history and lore that only a native family can tell, turning a wine tasting into a genuine Hill Country experience.

We pick you up directly from your location and take care of the rest. No driving, no parking, no logistics. Just call, tell us where you are staying, and we will handle the details.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I had my bachelorette party in Fredericksburg and with 16 girls, Keidel Wine Tours was able to accommodate us with two buses. I was in Jeff’s bus and he was very knowledgeable about the city and its history and I loved hearing all about it. They take care of setting up your reservations at the wineries, get a box lunch catered for you,  and have snacks and water on the bus for the day, then they dropped us off on Main so we could check out more! All of this made my trip that much better. Thank you Jeff and Aaron!! We will be back and will use your service again!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Jeff and Aaron made our experience so EASY! Accommodating a group of 17 people was proving to be difficult when we started looking at wine tours. Jeff worked with us and met all of our requests! Offered his suggestions for what would work for our larger group and was able to get us into the wineries we really wanted to visit.

Pick up was prompt, the lunch they provided were huge servings as well as delicious. Constantly providing info on the area, asking if we needed anything and just a wonderful company to work with. We will use them again!
