Texas Wine Tasting
Viator review: Sip Like a Local Private Wine Tours by Native Experts
Visited three wine tastings. Had a total of a lot (6 at one and 5 at the next two) of wine
selections. Better than I expected for only Texas wines. All three stops emphasized grapes
grown in Texas.

Great Wine, Great Food, Great Tour
Tripadvisor review: Sip Like a Local Private Wine Tours by Native Experts
We had a great experience with Sip Like a Local Private Wine Tours by Native Experts in Fredericksburg, Texas. The day felt thoughtfully curated rather than scripted, which made all the difference.
Laurie’s knowledge of the local wine scene and the Fredericksburg area is outstanding. She didn’t just shuttle us between wineries, she shared context, history, and insights that made each stop more interesting. It was clear she truly knows the region and tailors the experience to her guests’ interests rather than following a default script.
Her courteous attention to detail was exemplary throughout the day. Everything ran seamlessly. Laurie’s approach is a balance between professional, warm, and genuinely engaging.
Lunch was an unexpected highlight at Leroy’s. It was exactly what we were looking for; great food, relaxed atmosphere. This certainly wasn’t a spot we would have found on our own.
If you’re visiting Fredericksburg and want one of the best personal wine tours, from a local, Sip Like a Local delivers. We would book again and highly recommend Laurie at Sip Like a Local Private Wine Tours.
