We called Dan on short notice from San Francisco to go touring in Napa. He was on vacation but called back from the beach and arranged for us to go touring with an associate! He managed all the details (knowing our tastes from a prior trip) and we had a great time visiting some wineries that were "off the beaten... More

This was my second time to spend the day with Dan Dolan at Reserve Wine Tours. Dan does a wonderful job tailoring your wine tour to your tastes and personality. He has the best connections in Napa Valley and you always feel well taken care when you are with him. We look forward to seeing Dan again this spring!

We chose Dan after a thorough review of many tour guides on TA - and we think we made the right choice. Dan was very responsive from the moment I contacted him. We had a great conversation on the phone, and that made me feel comfortable with my choice. Several weeks before our trip, Dan contacted me again to talk... More

After two wonderful days visiting private wineries with Dan Dolan I don't know why anyone would choose another tour planner. Dan is extremely knowledgeable, and his welcoming and friendly demeanor made it feel like we were traveling with a long time friend as opposed to someone we'd just met. We discussed our personal wine tastes weeks before the trip. Fortunately... More

I have had the opportunity to tour the Napa Valley with Dan on several occasions over the past five years, and each time seems to top the time before. I recently went back to the Napa Valley in mid-October, and I set up a day of touring with Dan for four of us. Dan personalizes each day by talking with... More

My wife and I spent the day with Dan Dolan, and we had an excellent time together. He created an itinerary based on earlier phone conversations. We were picked up at our hotel mid morning, and off we went. We enjoyed all of the wineries Dan had selected and got a great understanding of some of the history of the... More

This was my third trip to Napa and I wish I would have known Dan 2 trips ago. We were a group of 7 and I read numerous reviews here on Trip Advisor and contacted Dan. OMG what a great 2 days we had with him. We only booked 1 day with Dan but at the end of the day... More

There are not enough words to describe what a wonderful 2 days our group spend with Dan. He not only educated us on many facts but shared many very entertaining stories. We visited 8 vineyards over 2 days and they were by far the best. Make sure you ask him to take you to the Boyd's Family Vineyard.

I recently visited Napa and my group book Dan Dolen for a day while we were there. I'd been to Napa before and used a different wine tour driver, and I can say now I can't use anybody but Dan. He made our experience for the day we had him. He knows his stuff; he's knowledgeable about wine and the... More
