Similkameen Valley Wineries
Approximately 1.5 hours from Kelowna, you can enjoy the beautiful 30-minute drive from Penticton or the 20-minute drive from Osoyoos as you follow the meandering course of the Similkameen River through breathtaking mountains and diverse farming and wine terrain.
With more than 40% of all crops grown organically, this region is considered the Organic Capital of Canada. The near-desert environment in the Similkameen Valley provides fantastic growing conditions for grapes, fruits and vegetables, honey, and more.
With over 600 acres of vineyards and a large number of fruit orchards, this region is developing a reputation for their award winning wines and some of Canada’s best fruit wines as well. Try a different path on the wine trail and perhaps discover a favourite wine or red wine while wine tasting at any Similkameen valley wineries.

We wanted to take our daughter and her fiancé on a wine tour before her wedding. We got to spend the day touring wineries in Lake Country with Terri. What a wonderful experience. Terri was on time, very professional and a joy to be with. She took care of everything.

This is the Wine Tour Company to go with. Super friendly and knowledgeable about the wines and the wineries. Michael made everyone on the tour comfortable and we all had fun.

Our wine tour hosted by Mike was a fantastic experience. His knowledge of the wine industry and the history of the region was extensive. Having grown up in the area, and even living on a vineyard for some years, there was still so much to learn.

Outstanding wine tour. Mike was able to blend stories, wine, and food experiences to ensure everyone in the tour had a perfect day. I can’t see myself using any other tour guide future. Highly recommend this company.

We had a wonderful time. Our guide, Michael Metcalfe, knew a lot, not only about the wine, but about the history and geography of the area, which made the tour even more interesting. You cannot go wrong booking with this company.

Quite simply a superb day. Visiting several wineries with a small group accompanied by Nygel our guide who provided an excellent commentary and background to the history of the places we visited. Certainly a tour I would recommend to anyone.
