FAQs

Are Kent wine tours suitable as a day trip from London?

Yes. Many vineyards are within 60–90 minutes by train and taxi. Some tours include transport from London—check the tour details before booking.

What should I wear to a vineyard?

Smart‑casual works well. Vineyards can be uneven and muddy after rain—flat, closed‑toe shoes are recommended.

Can I bring children or pets?

Policies vary by venue. Always check the tour listing; some experiences are 18+ only, and most vineyards do not allow dogs in production areas.

Do tours run in bad weather?

Tastings usually proceed indoors; vineyard walks may be adapted. Severe weather can lead to rescheduling—operators will contact you.
