Choose the Seneca Lake Tour That Fits Your Day

Seneca Lake has a few different ways to spend the day with us. Pick the tour that fits your group best — classic fun trolley experience, a deeper weekday wine tour, or a Friday evening craft beverage outing.

Trolley- Fun, social, classic Seneca Lake

Best for first-time visitors, couples, and groups who want the classic Lakeside experience.

  • Ride the vintage trolley

  • Visit a mix of wineries, breweries, and distilleries

  • Fun, social energy without the hassle of driving

Fridays, Saturdays & Sundays


Behind The Scenes - Deeper weekday wine experiences

Best for guests who want the wineries to feel less like stops & more like real experiences.

  • Four hand-picked Seneca Lake stops

  • More time at each location

  • Possible vineyard walks, production tours, guided tastings, pairings, or elevated tasting moments

Mondays through Thursdays


Craft Beverage Tours-Friday evening breweries, spirits, and tap-house energy

Best for guests who prefer beer, cocktails, spirits, and a Friday evening outing over a traditional wine day.

  • Brewery- and distillery-focused route

  • Great Friday evening group outing

  • Social and fun without the party-bus feel

Friday evenings


How Your Day Works

  1. Check in at the ticket booth – Arrive 10 minutes before departure at the Lakeside Trolley Ticket Booth in Watkins Glen. Show your ticket and get your wristband.

  2. Ride with your group to each stop – You’ll stay with the same vehicle and group all day while we handle the driving, timing, and route.

  3. Taste, relax, and explore – Taste, eat, shop, and explore at each stop. Most standard tour stops are around an hour. Behind-the-Scenes Tours include longer stops so there is more time for guided tastings, pairings, production moments, or other special experiences depending on the day.

  4. Return to Watkins Glen – After the final stop, we bring you back to the ticket booth so you can head to dinner, your lodging, or the rest of your evening.
