Experience the essence of Washington’s wild beauty and independent winemaking on this day tour to Snoqualmie Falls and boutique wineries. Join a few other travelers (each trip is ten people or fewer) and a TripAdvisor ‘Hall of Fame’ guide on an exploration of Seattle’s legendary backyard. Don’t worry – we’ll take care of absolutely everything! 

Start your tour at 270-foot-high Snoqualmie Falls, where you’ll watch the mighty waters plunge into the river canyon below. The waterfall is nestled among the big evergreen trees of the western Cascade Mountains, which cut across the state and divide the lush coastal climates of the West from the dry, vineyard-rich regions of the East. While there are hundreds are winemakers producing wine in western Washington, they all traverse this range to harvest their grapes in the fall and bring them back West to press, ferment, and blend. 

After exploring Snoqualmie Falls, you’ll explore Washington’s viticulture with tastings at two or three local wineries (depending on the season) that deliver on elegance but leave pretense at the door. We hand select our winery partners for their top notch wines of course, but equally as important, for the exclusive experience provided to our guests. You’ll meet with the passionate winemakers themselves and learn about their journey into the industry and inspiration behind their wines. You’ll receive the dedicated time of a tasting room manager to walk us through the art of wine tasting and often we are invited behind the scenes to experience the production space of a working winery —all while tasting award-winning varietals rarely found outside of Washington State. While Washington is the second largest wine-producer in the country, it only exports 1% of its wine!

If you’re staying in downtown Seattle (hotel, Airbnb, etc.), we’ll pick you up! We will call the day before your trip to confirm the exact timing. We’re bringing a fresh, local, family-style lunch to pair with our wine tasting! Snacks, sparkling water, and water are provided all day. 

Please note that this experience features visits to wineries and tasting rooms. If you are interested in a vineyard experience, we recommend our Mt. Rainier and Yakima Valley Wine Tasting trip (available from July thru October).
