Food, Wine & Relaxation Tours

Grape Escapes Wine Tours, based in Penticton, is the premier tour company in the South Okanagan and the only wine-industry certified tour operator in Penticton. We educate & entertain you. We were born here, play here and live here. Five zones to choose from - Naramata Bench, OK Falls, Summerland, Oliver-Osoyoos, & the Similkameen. From our "Simply Sipping Discovery Experience" where you can search out your new favourite winery & wine, to our "Grapes to Glass Discovery Experience" for a more in-depth exploration of the vineyard and/or wine-making process, we offer a portfolio of options for you.

We're driving you to drink...legally...and loving it.

This season, 5 of the most exceptional wineries in the Okanagan Valley have teamed up to offer visitors a unique tour and tasting experience. A special route has been designated through some of the most breathtaking scenery in the Okanagan: a route off the beaten path and not marked on the standard wine tour maps. Customized or 2-Day Tours are available. All group sizes are most welcome. Please visit our website for tour packages.

Romancing The Wine Tours will take you on an unforgettable wine tour in Canada's only desert. You will laugh and drink and enjoy some of the finest the Okanagan has to offer with choices from over 200 boutique wineries.

For those of you seeking outdoor adventure, we have that to offer as well with choices of rock climbing, rappelling, hiking, biking and yoga. Let the fun begin!

Have you been on the Bead Trail yet?

Get started on the Bead Trail with a map and a bracelet, available at South Okanagan Visitor Centres and all participating businesses. Discover South Okanagan wineries, restaurants, boutiques, studios and other fantastic places! Where there's a bead, there's a story. Each business has it's own signature bead for you to find and collect. It's a fun and affordable way to get yourself a beautiful, unique piece of jewelry.

Follow the Bead Trail and collect both beads and stories as you go.
