We specialize in small group tours and deliver a truly unique experience. Cruising through the County in a classic Cadillac with the top down while your favourite tunes play through the speakers is a perfect way to experience the incredible wineries, breweries and extensive sights PEC has to offer.
The County covers a huge area and wineries are spread out East to West. While there are many gems hidden in by-the-way spots, we want to maximize your experience and spend most of your times at the wineries themselves rather than driving all over the place. The cars are great don't get me wrong, but you're really here for the wine. In order to get the most bang for your buck we have chosen select wineries grouped around popular accommodations. Leave it all to us, there are no decisions to be made except of course which wine you'd like to try- we pick you up and drop you off and in between you'll hit 4 wineries.
We choose wineries based on location, and also the best possible experience for you to have. What would we want if we were touring the county? Great wine, fantastic tunes, a beautiful car and lots of fun, so that's what you get with us.
Make sure you download your favourite playlists as each of our classic cars comes with a bluetooth speaker to ratchet up the fun factor. Water will be provided during your tour. Come ready to have a ton of fun, enjoy the beauty of Prince Edward County, all from the backseat of one of our classic beauties. Try to keep your hands and feet inside the vehicle at all times, things tend to get a little wild!

So one morning I get up at the crack of dawn as usual- I have no idea why but I just can't sleep in, my father was the same.
I clean the kitchen, make my kids and wife breakfast and start thinking of all the times I've been asked his last year, "So how's retirement? ". Now let me tell you nothing makes you feel old as someone saying that to you.
It doesn't help that I listen to music from the past four decades and still get excited about it like a 16 year old in 1964 experiencing the Rolling Stones for the 1st time. I love vintage clothes and cars too. I wasn't meant to be born in 1968- I should've been born in the 40's so I could have enjoyed the 50's and 60's at that time instead of many decades later.
A while back I saw an ad about vintage car tours in Manhattan and it sparked an idea. I have been collecting vintage cars since I was a young man. For nearly a decade I've been living in Prince Edward County, and since I sold my bar/music venue, The Cadillac Lounge in Toronto last summer I've got some time on my hands. I've always been an idea person who flies by the seat of my pants. So now I have some time to figure out what I'd like to do. I'm still involved in the music scene but going at my own pace and with Covid, that's slowed down too. But this thing in Manhattan made so much sense to me- it combines my love of vintage cars, great music and the beauty of where I live and what I love about this area. Prince Edward County is a wonder and I love nothing more than driving around with my wife in our old cars exploring parts of the County I've never been before. It all came together so seamlessly and folks are digging it.
Honestly this doesn't feel like work, it's a pleasure. I've always loved helping to make people happy- I did it in the bar business for 25 years and now I'm doing it again in different ways. I'm not much of a business guy, I didn't go to business school but I've always just treated people the way I would want to be treated and it's worked out well for me. And the fact it allows me an excuse to keep buying vintage cars without my wife rolling her eyes (too much), is a bonus!
Besides the booming business and looking for drivers to help out with the demand of the tours people are seeking I'm also looking a bit down the road. The long game I guess is also to teach my kids work ethic and that their Dad is not some international man of mystery that does nothing but taxi them around to school & play dates. I'm still a cool-rocking'- Daddy driving kick-ass cars trying to spread some joy.
