Thirsty? Here’s the scoop: Some tours might include a surprise sip, but it’s not a sure thing. We don’t build drinks into the price because not everyone drinks alcohol—and we’d rather let you order exactly what you like. Good news: at several stops, you’ll have time to grab a drink if you’re feelin’ it. Cheers to that!
