We will be in the Willamette Valley from pickup to dropoff. Willamette Valley has recently been featured in Time Magazine as one of the top 100 places to visit in the world. Beauty is all-around while we navigate through vineyards and between wineries.

We had a fantastic trip with Ken to the a few of the locally owned Oregon wineries! Ken was very knowledgeable about wine and the history of the region and its wineries. He handpicked 3 beautiful wineries that also had amazing wines. There was great conversation, great wine, and a great experience! Highly recommend this tour if you’re in the area!

Authentic, sincere, caring and selective! Wes gave us a terrific tour of wineries in around McMinnville. As a native, and a very active member of his community, he has the best connections, the best stories, and discerning about the vineyards and wineries we got to visit. He was extremely courteous and conscientious during the whole adventure. Thank you, Wes!
