Private Baby Funk Van: A Ten‑Seat Traverse City Shuffle for Wine, Beer and Celebrations.

Highlights
Outing Highlights
An intimate, ten‑seat private shuttle
The Baby Funk Van is configured for groups of up to 10 people, making it ideal for parties that want a private, mobile base for multiple stops without splitting the group.
Bring your own food and alcohol
You can load a cooler, bring anything to eat, and alcohol is permitted aboard the van — a practical detail since some wineries have limited food options on site.
Customized, pre‑arranged stops
Tours are tailored: book your own itinerary or let the operator make appointments and map the route for you, covering wineries, breweries, distilleries and sightseeing as requested.
