Wine and Agricultural Tours from Vancouver
to the Okanagan, Fraser Valley, and Vancouver Island

The Okanagan

The beautiful sun-drenched Okanagan, also referred to as "Napa of the North", is one of the warmest areas of Canada and the main grape-growing region in BC. Lush vineyards nestle into this spectacular stretch of landscape which features freshwater lakes, sandy beaches, rolling hills, mountains and desert. The Okanagan region is accessible by a 45 minute flight or a 5 hour drive from Vancouver.

Okanagan wines are among the finest in the world, earning recognition from connoisseurs around the globe. There are more than 130 wineries in this region, each with its own unforgettable character and ambience. Some wineries provide a complete experience to visitors, combining award-winning restaurants using local organic ingredients and first-class luxury accommodation.

Famous for orchards brimming with luscious fruit, the Okanagan is filled with farmer's markets selling fresh, locally-grown produce. Apples, pears, peaches, nectarines, cherries, plums and prunes are all grown in the Okanagan. The export of fruits from this area is worth more than $100 million, a significant contribution to the Canadian economy.
