Head Southwest to the Lake Michigan Shore Wine Trail From Kentwood
Wherever your group is dreaming of going, the Lake Michigan Shore Wine Trail is one of the most popular wine tour destinations for groups leaving Kentwood — and for good reason! Heading west on I-196 and then south on I-94 puts your bus in the heart of Michigan's oldest wine-producing region in under 90 minutes. St. Julian Winery (716 S Kalamazoo St, Paw Paw, MI 49079), Michigan's oldest and largest winery, is a classic first stop.
Fenn Valley Vineyards (6130 122nd Ave, Fennville, MI 49408) and Tabor Hill Winery & Restaurant (185 Mt Tabor Rd, Buchanan, MI 49107) round out a full day along the trail beautifully. With a minibus or charter bus handling the I-94 corridor, your group sips while the miles disappear — no designated driver required, no cars to coordinate, and no one stuck missing out because they're behind the wheel!
Make the Run North to Leelanau Peninsula and Old Mission Peninsula Wine Country
Find exactly what your group needs for the ultimate Michigan wine experience — a full-day or overnight charter north to Traverse City wine country! US-131 out of Kentwood carries your bus roughly 155 miles to the Leelanau Peninsula and Old Mission Peninsula, two of Michigan's most celebrated AVAs. Black Star Farms (10844 E Revold Rd, Suttons Bay, MI 49682), Chateau Chantal (15900 Rue de Vin, Traverse City, MI 49686), and Shady Lane Cellars (9580 Shady Lane, Suttons Bay, MI 49682) are perennial favorites.
A full-size charter bus with reclining seats, onboard WiFi, and climate control makes the 2.5- to 3-hour ride north feel like part of the celebration, not just the commute. Compare available charter buses and multi-day packages through the network — and call 616-360-2780 to put together a custom itinerary for your group!
Celebrate Harvest Season in Michigan Wine Country With Your Group
Moving your group through Michigan wine country during harvest season — September and October — is one of the most rewarding experiences the region offers, and it's also the busiest time of year for wine tour transportation. Crush festivals, harvest dinners, and special release events fill winery calendars across the Lake Michigan Shore and Leelanau Peninsula from Labor Day through Halloween. Round Barn Winery (10983 Hills Rd, Baroda, MI 49101) and Filkins Vineyards (6991 Ryno Rd, Coloma, MI 49038) both host popular harvest events that draw large groups from the Grand Rapids area.
Because Kentwoodcharterbuscompany.com pulls from a large network of independently owned bus companies, you're comparing available vehicles across multiple operators — so even on a booked-up October Saturday, you have more options than any single company could show you. Book early, because harvest weekends fill fast!
Pair a Local Grand Rapids Stop With Your Wine Tour Itinerary
It's never been easier to build a wine tour that starts or ends right in the Grand Rapids area before your group heads out to wine country! Robinette's Apple Haus & Winery (3142 4 Mile Rd NE, Grand Rapids, MI 49525), just 15 miles north of Kentwood, is a beloved local stop for fruit wines and hard ciders — a perfect warm-up before the bus heads southwest to the Lake Michigan Shore or north toward Traverse City. And since Grand Rapids is nicknamed Beer City USA, plenty of groups add a stop at Founders Brewing Co. (235 Cesar E. Chavez Ave SW, Grand Rapids, MI 49503) or Brewery Vivant (925 Cherry St SE, Grand Rapids, MI 49506) to round out the day.
You set the itinerary, you pick the stops, and the bus keeps everyone together from the first sip to the last!
