You香蕉视频直播檝e heard of wine tours by bicycle and boat but now you can tour vineyards and taste wine by horseback.

It香蕉视频直播檚 a potential bucket list experience for horse lovers to get to various wineries and other scenic locations in Keremeos and Cawston on horseback.
香蕉视频直播淲e香蕉视频直播檝e already done a few horseback wine tours and had fantastic feedback from various people,香蕉视频直播 said Kim.
What they offer is a four-to-five-hour wine tour on horseback, visiting at least five different Similkameen-based wineries. They supply the horses and guide the tour. You supply the cowboy boots and hat.
Along the route, the tour stops at a farm store, a locally owned and operated enterprise.
香蕉视频直播淥ur goal is to make this a project from which the maximum number of businesses in the area benefit,香蕉视频直播 said Kim.
The wine tour starts at the Grist Mill on Upper Bench Road, then ride to three wineries in the vicinity, before stopping for a charcuterie lunch along the way.
After lunch, the tour meanders through massive hay fields before reaching the fourth and fifth wineries. The last winery on the all-day tour is Crowsnest Winery, which also has an award-winning restaurant and artisan bakery where riders can taste wine first, then relax in the scenic restaurant for dinner. (Clients pay for their dinner).
