Itinerary

  • Old Town Temecula

    This first stop allows time to explore the rustic streets lined with unique shops, specialty food purveyors, galleries, tasting rooms, and antique stores. Peruse for gifts, sample gourmet delicacies, and soak in the quaint setting. Founded in the mid 1800’s, Temecula’s western history is showcased along the rustic streets, with numerous shops housed in original buildings. A popular Saturday morning Farmer's Market is always a favorite of participants.

    1 hour

  • Frangipani Estate Winery

    Departing for wine country, the tour follows a scenic route along the De Portola Wine Trail as our engaging Destination Temecula guide shares fun information about the culture of wine tasting, the historical significance of the valley, and the reasons grape cultivation flourishes in the Temecula Valley appellation. Indulge in a relaxing, fun, informative afternoon visiting three unique and breathtaking wineries, interacting with knowledgeable pouring staff, and often engaging with the wine maker and/or winery owner. Sample anywhere from 15-20 different wines throughout the day. A delicious, individually served upscale picnic lunch is enjoyed at this first winery stop. Savor the beautiful valley view before you with Mount Palomar on the horizon as you sample wines, enjoy your lunch, and engage in stimulating conversation with your tour mates, many who often become new best friends by the end of the day!

    1 hour

  • Wilson Creek Winery

    It is then off to the next winery, Wilson Creek, where you can join our guide for a fascinating private behind-the-scenes vineyard and production area tour conducted just for our guests, whom often find themselves chatting on the crush pad or in the production area with the winemaker. Play your cards right and you might sample a tasting from the tanks!

    1 hour

  • Temecula

    Finish the afternoon at a third Temecula Winery. During this last stop, participants enjoy a "casual" tasting on their own, with ample time provided to sample wine, make purchases, explore the fabulous grounds, take pictures and marvel at the breathtaking scenery.

    1 hour

  • San Diego Convention Center (Pass By)

    The fun filled day of wine tasting and exploration finishes in the luxury of reclining seats and air conditioning arriving back in San Diego around 7 pm with drop off at each guest’s respective hotel.

What a wonderful way to spend a day. Dave, our driver, was a great host. Very knowledgeable about Temecula and the surrounding area. We especially enjoyed Wilson Creek winery mostly because of Masee (sp?), the guy at the tasting bar. He was exceptional!!

Awesome tour

Published on Dec, 2024

Tour does a nice job of picking you up and driving back locally so you don't have to worry about parking or overnight lodging in Temecula if you so wish. They did a really good job of picking out 3 different wineries with a different experience at each place. Would go again and highly recommend.

Perfect day in Temecula

Great tour. Comfortable transportation. Dave our guide was very knowledgeable and super nice. Choice of three wineries that were perfect, generous pours, and Beautiful Views. Perfect day

Great day trip!

Published on Sep, 2024

A great trip. Vicki our guide was fabulous, created a lovely vibe with the tour party. Only 4 of us were on the tour which meant we could get to know the other 2. The 3 wineries we visited were all different, from small family run, to big & brash and lastly chilled. Can't fault the day. You get to spend sometime in Old Town Temecula before heading out to the wineries. All in all a superb day trip!

We had a great time! Dave...

Published on Sep, 2024

We had a great time! Dave (our tour guide) was friendly and super informative, and the 3 wineries visited were unique and fun to explore. We had plenty of time to enjoy the wines at each stop and didn’t feel rushed, and the included lunch (and waters) were much appreciated. We’d definitely recommend for anyone wanting to explore wine country conveniently from San Diego!
