Corporate Adventures
Forget awkward icebreakers, beige conference rooms and motivational speeches from someone called Darren. Tipple Tours creates unforgettable corporate adventures featuring extraordinary destinations, brilliant food and drink, hilarious experiences and the sort of team bonding that happens naturally when everyone is having a fantastic time.
From Georgian wine feasts to British pub challenges, we organise the adventure. You take the credit.
Small groups. Big pours. Absolutely no compulsory trust falls.
Your team's smashed their targets. Reward them with something better than a branded water bottle.
Give your top performers something genuinely worth working towards.
Forget building towers out of spaghetti. Build friendships over extraordinary experiences instead.
Because nobody remembers another networking lunch with lukewarm chicken.
Milestones, anniversaries, big wins and an excellent excuse to leave the office.
Exclusive adventures for wine merchants, importers, hospitality teams and their customers.
Example experiences to spark ideas. Every corporate adventure is private and built around your team, dates and budget.

Wine tastings, traditional Georgian feasts, cooking experiences, beautiful countryside and unforgettable hospitality.

"Ancient civilisation. Modern team bonding. Absolutely no flipcharts."
Your colleagues, your dates, your adventure. No strangers joining your company getaway unless you've accidentally hired them.
Accommodation, activities, transport, local guides and the little details that normally give office managers nightmares.
Unusual destinations, fascinating local characters and experiences that don't come from a corporate retreat instruction manual.
Designed primarily for smaller teams, with larger private groups considered on request.
The focus is on discovery, culture, friendships and having fun. Drinking is optional, enjoyment isn't.
Tipple Tours grew out of The Smiling Grape Company, the independent wine merchant we founded in 2008 and winner of the International Wine Challenge's Regional Merchant of the Year for Eastern England in 2015. That's years of genuine wine expertise coming along for the ride.
How many people, where you'd like to go, your budget and what you're celebrating.
We'll design an itinerary around your company's personality, interests and objectives.
Review the itinerary, dates, inclusions and quotation.
We organise the adventure while your team concentrates on enjoying it.
Whether you're rewarding six brilliant employees or taking twenty colleagues somewhere spectacular, we'll build a private trip around your budget, interests and ambitions.
Every quotation clearly shows what's included and what isn't, including flights, meals, drinks and optional activities.
“Our sales team came back from Georgia closer than they've ever been. Possibly because they spent three days sharing chacha and singing badly. Best incentive we've ever run.”
“Tipple Tours handled everything. All I had to do was take the credit, which I did, loudly, at the next board meeting.”
Wine & Hospitality Trade Adventures
Wine merchants, importers, sommeliers and restaurant teams: take your staff on an educational trip or your best customers on their own wine adventure to Georgia, Moldova or Armenia. We grew out of an award-winning independent wine merchant, so we know the trade.
Planning Something With Friends Instead?
Birthdays, friendship groups, wine clubs, family reunions or just an excellent excuse to escape with your favourite people? We organise private adventures for those too. No HR department, no awkward icebreakers and absolutely no compulsory PowerPoint presentations.
