How Much Does a Private Wine Tour Cost in Kelowna?
Private Kelowna wine tours with Red Dog are priced by the vehicle rather than per person. The total price depends on the size of your group and whether you use the Mercedes Metris or Sprinter. Because the vehicle price is divided among your guests, the per-person cost generally becomes lower as your group gets larger.
For current pricing, our private tours currently range from approximately $551 to $1,521 per vehicle, depending on group size and vehicle. All listed prices include 5% GST.
What Is Included in a Private Wine Tour?
A private Red Dog wine tour includes private transportation, a dedicated guide, winery tasting fees, bottled water, light snacks and pickup and drop-off within our designated Kelowna and West Kelowna service area.
The biggest difference from a public tour is the flexibility. Your group can discuss the wineries, route, pace and timing when planning the day.
For complete information about current pricing and tour inclusions, see our Red Dog Wine Tour Prices page.
Why Does the Price Depend on Group Size?
Private tours are booked as a vehicle for your group rather than as individual seats. For example, a couple using the Metris pays for the private vehicle, while a larger group can share the cost among more people.
This means a private tour can be particularly good value for a group of friends or family members who want the vehicle and itinerary entirely to themselves.
Can I Customize the Wineries?
Yes. One of the main advantages of a private wine tour is the ability to build an itinerary around your group’s interests. You can choose wineries based on the type of experience, wines, views and atmosphere you prefer.

How Do I Get an Exact Price?
The easiest way to start planning your private tour is to use our Private Wine Tour Planner. It allows you to explore winery options and start building a private itinerary based on your group’s preferences.
