Fun! - Fun experience! The tasting lines can be long so it was worth the tour to be able to skip to the front. Several cocktails are included plus a discount at each location. I would recommend this tour for anyone looking to have some fun and get a little tipsy!

Great for a date night or just to sample a bunch of flavored Shine. - Jen, our guide, was fantastic. The tastings were entertaining (looking at you Wild Bill - Tennessee Shine Co) and substantial. We tasted probably almost 20 moonshines and bourbons in total. We also got to chose 2 cocktails made from some of the shines we tasted. The production tour was ok. The pricing on the moonshines we tasted were fair so we picked up a couple bottles. A great experience.

Disappointing and overpriced - This tour was disappointing and overpriced. Despite there being over a dozen moonshine and wine spots along the strip for this tour, we visited exactly two (with a 20 minute walk between them). No wine stop at all. And we were not told of the change until we arrived, despite the tour guide texting us with other information 24 hours before the tour started. We would have cancelled if we had known of the change, which I assume is why they didn’t tell us in advance. Also our tour guide seemed like she wanted to be anywhere except on the tour. Very disappointing and do not recommend.

Overpriced and Disappointing - The two locations we went to were okay, but we could have gone to them without the tour guide. Tastings at one spot ($10 per couple retail?), two cocktails and a tasting at a second spot ($25 per couple retail?) = $35 retail value for a $98 experience! Ridiculous. We won’t book again.
