Important Information

Please be sure to arrive at least **15 minutes** early to the tour meeting point location so the tour will start promptly at time of tour. Traffic in Newport can be congested in the summer and parking is at a premium, please plan accordingly.

As a courtesy to other guests and to ensure we stay on schedule with each tasting location, shopping or the purchase of drinks and alcoholic beverages is not allowed during the tour. There maybe some alcohol or drink tastings as part of the tour, but for the most part glasses of water will be provided by most establishments.

Gratuities to your tour guides are greatly appreciated if you have a good time on

the tour. The standard gratuity in the service industry is 15-20%.

Food tasting locations are subject to change without notice.

We reserve the right to cancel tour if minimums are not met.
