Overview

Our scheduled vintage bus tours depart from Brighton rail station meaning you’re free to relax and enjoy the wines without the need for a designated driver. The tour includes seamless transportation and is fully hosted. Journey through the Sussex countryside on board the vintage bus to the first vineyard, where you'll have a tour of the vines and be shown the winery to hear about English wine production. Then follows a tutored tasting of at least four award-winning sparkling wines. Next, is a picnic lunch among the vines - complete with wicker hamper, bursting with homemade delights and a glass of wine. In the afternoon, we once again board the 1960's London Routemaster bus and drive to a second Sussex vineyard for another tutored tasting of still and sparkling wines. There is time to enjoy the beautiful surroundings with a vineyard walk, or you can sit back, relax on the sun terrace and watch the sun fall over the vineyard. A Great British day out!

Wines! Picnics! Routemasters! Oh my!

Published on Aug, 2024

Loved this wine tour! There were lots of participants in this group, and all were still able to fit comfortably on the old Routemaster bus. I'm not a morning person, and this tour starts bright and early, but having a tour that includes both stylish transportation and delicious lunch is hard to beat. Danny, the host, will reach out to accommodate guests' dietary restrictions beforehand to ensure there are no hiccups day-of. We visited 2 wineries -- Court Garden and Artellium -- and were provided generous tastings at each. The weather was sunny and warm, and any more than 2 winery visits / tastings would have bested us and our palates, especially when it comes to the acidity of English sparkling and white wines. After our vineyard orientation and 4 wine tasting at Court Garden, lunch was provided, and we were given picnic hampers, water, and glasses of wine to enjoy in the shade, the vineyard, or at outside tables. At both locations the vintners and blenders guided wine tastings, answering questions and guiding us through each of the wines we tasted. The cost for this tour is a bit pricey, in my view, but very worth it as a special treat, birthday gift, or pre-wedding celebration. I would love to take this tour again and visit other vineyards, and would highly recommend it to anyone interested in Sussex wines!

Perfect Day with Friends

Published on Aug, 2024

A perfect day with friends celebrating one of our friends special birthdays. The staff were so friendly & helpful & went the extra mile with some extra requests/requirements that we had. Both vineyards were great - interesting & engaging & the picnic hamper lunch was lovely & the wines delicious. A thoroughly enjoyable day. Thank you to all involved.

Bluebell Railway and Sussex Vineyard - excellent day out!

Published on Jul, 2024

My partner and I did the vintage steam Bluebell railway and Sussex vineyard tour. The red Routemaster bus was great travelling through Sussex and The Downs. The Bluebell railway trip was wonderful - our guides were very knowledgeable - especially Alan from Great British Wine Tours. All so picturesque everywhere! Court Garden vineyard a delight - sampled some tasty English sparkling wines. All in all - a marvellous day out!
