Here are a few tips for choosing the best day to go Wine Tasting in Niagara!

Avoid weekends if possible, as they tend to be the busiest and most crowded. Even going on a a Friday or Sunday will be less busy than Saturday. We'd recommend consider going weekday as that is one of the best times for guests to receive more of a personalized experience.  Staff tend to have much more time to spend with guest giving them that little added touch.

Even though we all image a warm sunny day as the perfect time to go wine tasting, do let that be the driving force in not coming out to winer country. We run tours rain or shine and won't let mother nature put a damper on a day you had planned to enjoy time with friends, family and loved ones. Most wineries do have outdoor covered space that you can still enjoy being outside.
