Self-Guided Wine Tours

The Willamette Valley offers spectacular views and great wine. All of our tours are COVID safe, however this is the social distancing tour of tours!

Heading to wine country can feel intimidating if you’re not familiar with the area or the wineries — and being in a car all day with someone you’ve never met isn’t for everyone.

Maybe you don’t want a full-day guided wine tour, but you do want to see what the Willamette Valley wine region is all about. Our Self-Guided tours are the perfect mix of driving yourself with the experience of a seasoned guide behind the planning — just not in the driver’s seat.

Fill out our form or call us directly, and once we know the kind of day you’re looking for, we’ll get to work arranging the perfect tour for you.

Your itinerary includes winery addresses and links, reservation confirmations, and any other details you need to navigate the day easily — built around the kind of experience you tell us you’re looking for.

What is the best town to stay in when visiting Willamette Valley?

McMinnville, Newberg, and Dundee are popular home bases for wine country visitors — all central to the Willamette Valley’s wineries and a manageable drive from Portland for a self-guided day trip.
