Suggested Itineraries and thoughts for the region: There are many of our favorite wineries in this region-if we forgot yours, let us know! *Sagelands*Silver Lake** Hyatt*Apex*Kestrel*Columbia Crest*Eaton Hill*Hogue Cellars*Masset*Bonair*Clear Cellars*Snoqualmie* more** Yakima makes for a fun outing as a /2 day or full day trip - we recommend an overnight or weekend visit to the area to get the most out of this region. Great hotels, RV parks and Inns. We will customize anything or themed event, and of course our special Wine makers or chef dinners at a local restaurant or vineyard. Extension tours: This tour or any of our Walla Walla and Yakima tours can be extended to Montana - where we have a new program called Cowboys to Chefs! A different take on Culinary Tours! You will love it! Day tours: We leave Seattle around 9:00 a.m. - travel to your first winery (you choose all stops), have a late morning tasting, then we stop for lunch at a local eatery and off to our next winery. We will then visit your third and fourth winery of choice. I suggest then a return to Seattle. Approx. 8 hours total time with lunch, prices based on your wineries. Day tours with dinner option: Same itinerary as above, only we will have a wine makers dinner once we return to Seattle, at one of our favorite host restaurants in Seattle. There are so many, that we will make a selection at time of booking to ensure the restaurant has the availability, this will extend your tour to Approx 10 hours with the dinner. Hotel stays 2 days or longer: Should you be doing a tour including a hotel stay, our days will be planned out to catch not only the essence of the reason we are going - wineries - but an extended experience with wine makers dinners, chef dinners and a host of activities that will include local restaurants and chefs. Our hotels, or inns will be first class with activities planned for our group. We will offer all transfers and ground operations while on tour, as well as the deluxe motor coach from the Seattle/Tacoma or Portland Metropolitan areas. Our tours are all inclusive and non-intrusive, giving you time to also enjoy the local areas we are visiting on your own or with your new friends. Day trip with lunch and snacks: For large groups, or convention attendees who are looking for the ultimate group gathering. This is an excellent trip on a bus, the bus can be a standard bus, or a luxury bus with video and on-board dining. We can design from the very simple to very complex day at the wineries, during the trip we will be offering a box lunch and afternoon cheese and fruit snacks to keep us replenished and hydrated. One aspect on all our tours is the availability of bottled water to everyone, as much as one wants at any time. This is a very affordable activity for your group, social club or gathering and runs most of the year. Call for pricing based on your group size and type of transportation desired. Custom tours, wine visits, wine maker diners, wine tasting and concerts are always available! Let us design the best tour that meets your needs, and all affordable too! Yakima is close by - and with easy access, we can plan a day trip, weekend, week long with any theme you like, our design team is ready and waiting to fill your desires. Our winery tours do not have published fares, as we design the trips based on the wines and restaurants you would like to taste at and enjoy - our program is custom designed to capture every aspect of the region we are visiting, not to just be a bus ride, taste a wine or two - maybe a piece of cheese and then 2.5 hours back home - we want you to take it all in and enjoy, relax and make this a memorable and exciting adventure - with desires to return again and again. |
