We used Mother Lode Adventure Charter Services for our day of wedding transportation and could not be more pleased with the service and professionalism we received!  

The Owner Kelly was... Read More more than accommodating in helping us navigate our pickup & drop off times and locations and even went above and beyond by driving out to our venue before the event to make sure the timing/schedules we created would work for the wedding. Which made going in to the day of wedding feeling extremely comfortable with our transportation arrangements.

We rented two of the 24 seat buses and they were extremely clean, spacious and perfect for our event. The drivers were courteous with our vibrant crowd 🙂 I highly recommend this company and will definitely be using in the future for wine trip to the Murphy's/Mother Lode Area.

10/10

  Kelly and her team of drivers did a great job shuttling guests for my daughter's wedding. It was a pleasure to work with this professional and pleasant group!

  Found MLA Charter via google and could not have been more thrilled with our day of wine tasting in Murphys! Kelly was super prompt to get back to me with... Read More all my questions and even gave us a free upgrade from the 14 passenger van to the 20 passenger shuttle bus since no one else had booked it that weekend! She was on time to our reservation and had great communication from start to finish!

Kelly was not only the person I was in contact with for booking, but she also ended up being our driver.

I must make a confession - I did not admit to Kelly prior to our pick up that we were a bachelorette party, because lets be honest; No one likes a bachelorette party lol  
But once we were picked up, Kelly mentioned that if I HAD said something in advanced about us being a bach, that they have markers to use on the bus and make it that more festive. Sooo with that in mind, if you are looking to book MLA for a bach, they seem to be bach friendly!

However, I must say we were not just ANY REGULAR bachelorette party -- we all dressed up as grannies for our day of wine tasting! Kelly fully embraced her role as the driver for a bunch of silly 30year olds dressed up as senior citizens and made the day that more special!

Kelly picked up us directly at our house outside of Sonora and was totally on it for our day of granny-bach wine tasting-shenanigans. She got us home safely and had such a fun attitude about our silliness and was the best driver -- she contributed so much to us having a super fun day!

She event sent us the sweetest hand written card in the mail! Such a lovely and classy touch!!

MLA will be our go to for chartering in Tuolumne county from here out, If I could give 10 stars I would! Thanks again Kelly for being a part of bride-to-be's fun day!!

  We contacted Mother Lode Adventures for a wine tasting day in Murphy's. From beginning to end they were fantastic. Kelly, in the office,  was very prompt and professional. She responded... Read More to emails very quickly. She was very easy to work with and accommodated changes easily. Kelly's husband, Scott, was our driver. He waited patiently for us to be ready. He packed waters and strawberries that Kelly had cut and washed for us. They were the best strawberries we have ever tasted. Kelly provided each seat  in the van with a cute wine tasting magnet.  Scott was friendly, unassuming and patient. We had a car trailing our van due to a party-goers recent injuries from a car accident.  To me, this seems like it would be annoying to the driver of our van. Scott never complained and was extremely helpful to the other driver, making sure they knew where we were going and waiting for them to follow. He was even cheerful about it! Scott knows the area well and was very helpful when we asked for input. He made sure we had a great time and continually checked-in to see if there was anything we needed without being obtrusive. I frequently wine taste and have used other transportation services before in Sonoma/Napa County. I have never been so pleased. All the ladies were equally impressed. We couldn't get over how nice they were. Over the course of the day we shared with Scott our plans to walk to downtown Twain Harte after our dinner at home. He surprised us a few minutes after drop-off with mini-flashlights for us all! He wanted to make sure we walked home safely! ! Seriously! Kelly and Scott are the best ever!! Please book them if you can. You will not be disappointed.
