Niagara Wine Express

$129 / Per Person

Overview

Not everyone wants to spend six hours on a wine tour…

And that’s exactly why we created this experience.

Perfect for visitors who want to experience Niagara wine country while still leaving plenty of time to explore Niagara-on-the-Lake, visit the Falls, or simply enjoy the rest of their day.

We’ll take you to two beautiful boutique wineries where you’ll enjoy guided tastings of 3-4 wines at each stop, stroll through the vineyards, take some beautiful pictures and enjoy a charcuterie pairing that complements your wine tasting experience.

In just a few hours, you’ll experience everything people love about Niagara wine country—without committing your entire day.

Sometimes less really is more.
