Explore Nova Scotia wine country from Halifax with three tastings, a winery lunch, scenic Annapolis Valley views, and a friendly small group.

“We were met at the appointed time by our guide, Angela, who whisked us away, after picking up a few other fellow travelers, to 3 different wineries. Each winery was distinctive, the 2nd one was where we had lunch. We had plenty of time to enjoy the receptions by the winery staff and learn about each one's history in the area as well as their variety of wines. Angela remained with us, which I thought was great, and everyone had an excellent time. I would even repeat this tour.”
