In the event of inclement weather, the decision to cancel will be made by City Brew Tours Staff at least 12 hours before the start of the tour. If roads are fair and our brewery partners are open, we make every effort to run our tours as scheduled. If we have to cancel a tour due to weather, full refunds will be provided. Should you wish to reschedule due to inability to travel during the inclement weather, please give us a call at 775-510-2337 to discuss your options; a fee may apply if your tour was still scheduled to operate.
Our tours start at the Renaissance Reno Downtown Hotel and Spa entrance at One South Lake Street, Reno.
All guests must wear closed-toe shoes to participate in the tour. This is a safety precaution that the breweries themselves are required to enforce, therefore, no exceptions can be made. If you are taking a tour during the summer months, please plan accordingly.
