Do you provide the same tours every month?
We offer tours Wednesday through Saturday each week, rotating between Ellijay, Jasper, and Blue Ridge so guests can regularly experience these charming mountain towns. Tour dates vary by location, so please check each tour for availability and the most up-to-date schedule.
What can I expect from a Vintage Adventures Tour?
You’ll meet your host at the designated location at 9:00 AM to get settled in, and by 9:30 AM sharp we’ll be on the road to explore one of North Georgia’s charming small towns—Ellijay, Jasper, or Blue Ridge. Along the way, you’ll visit curated antique shops, thrift stores, and hidden local treasures, with a break for lunch at a local favorite (meal not included). The day concludes with a drop-off around 5:00 PM, giving you plenty of time for shopping, exploring, and enjoying great company.
How long do we spend at each store/location?
Each tour follows a set schedule with planned times at every stop. While the length of each visit may vary based on the store and group pace, we’ve built in ample time at every location so you can shop, browse, and explore without feeling rushed.
How long do your guided tours typically last?
Our tours typically run from 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM. The exact timing can vary depending on how long we spend at each stop—whether we use the full allotted time or wrap up a little earlier. Either way, you’ll enjoy a full day of shopping, exploring, and fun!
Is there food on your tour?
Our tours include a midday stop where guests can purchase lunch at your own expense. Lunch is not included in the tour price, but we do provide a complimentary light snack and drink to enjoy onboard during the ride.
Can we bring our own food and drink?
Yes, you’re welcome to bring your own food and drinks! While we offer light snacks onboard, there will be stops along the tour where you may have the opportunity to purchase a lunch or additional snacks and drinks to enjoy on the vehicle.
What makes your tours unique compared to other travel services?
Our tours are designed for treasure hunters and nostalgia lovers! We specialize in taking guests to carefully curated antique stores, charming thrift shops, and hidden local gems that you won’t find on typical tours. To make the experience even better, our shuttle is customized to enhance your shopping adventure—offering comfort, convenience, and plenty of space to bring your finds along for the ride.
Who are our tours for?
Our tours are for everyone! Whether you’re joining solo to meet new people or bringing a group for a bachelor or bachelorette party, birthday, Mom’s day out, guys’ trip, girls’ trip, reunion, date activity, vacation idea, church group outing, or just some neighborhood bonding—we’ve got the seats!
Can under-age guests participate?
Absolutely! Guests under 18 are welcome but must be accompanied by an adult. We also offer discounted tickets for children under 12 — contact us before booking to discuss special pricing and make sure this tour is the right fit for your little adventurer.
Do I have to purchase tickets in advance? Can I pay cash?
We recommend purchasing tickets in advance to guarantee your seat, as tours often fill quickly. Walk-up guests are welcome when space is available, and we can accept payment at the shuttle—but please note we do not accept cash. All payments must be made by card or online.

Is your vehicle handicap accessible?
At this time, our vehicle is not equipped to accommodate wheelchairs or scooters, and we’re unable to provide transfers for guests who require them. That said, we welcome all inquiries and are happy to talk through your specific needs to help determine if our tour experience would be a comfortable fit.
Will the tours still run if the weather isn’t great?
Yes! Our tours run rain or shine. The shuttle is fully enclosed with heating and air conditioning, so you’ll stay comfortable while traveling between stops. Some locations are indoors while others are outdoors, so we recommend dressing for the weather. If conditions ever make it unsafe to operate the shuttle, we’ll work with you to reschedule.
Will you still do the tour if there’s only one person? Can single riders schedule a tour?
Yes! Single riders are always welcome to join our tours. You’ll have a great time exploring, shopping, and meeting new people along the way!
