Red Dog Wine Tours makes it easy to experience the wineries without worrying about driving, parking or finding your way between tasting rooms. We pick you up directly at Fairfield Inn & Suites West Kelowna and take care of the transportation throughout the afternoon.

Our popular West Kelowna Afternoon Wine Tour visits four wineries and gives you time to enjoy the scenery, taste Okanagan wines and learn about the region from a local guide. The tour is relaxed rather than rushed, with pickups generally beginning between 1:00 and 1:30 PM and the winery portion finishing around 5:30 PM.

Which Wineries Might You Visit?

We visit four wineries on each tour, with the exact combination depending on availability and the day’s itinerary. Possible stops include:

  • Quails’ Gate Winery – A beautiful estate with vineyard and Okanagan Lake views and a long history in the region.
  • Mt. Boucherie Estate Winery – Known for its distinctive volcanic terroir and a modern winery experience.
  • Frind Estate Winery – A picturesque lakeside winery with a relaxed atmosphere.
  • Little Straw Vineyards – A smaller family-run winery offering impressive views across the surrounding vineyards.
  • Volcanic Hills Estate Winery – A West Kelowna winery showcasing wines influenced by the region’s volcanic soils.
  • The Hatch Winery – A creative and unconventional winery with a distinctive personality.
  • Black Swift Vineyards – A boutique winery focused on small-production wines and the character of the Okanagan.
  • Crown & Thieves – An atmospheric winery with an unusual, immersive tasting experience.

Because we visit four wineries rather than trying to fit in as many stops as possible, there is time to actually enjoy each tasting and the scenery along the way.
