Private Willamette Valley Weintour ab Portland

We enjoyed a truly excellent day with Sean touring the northern Willamette Valley. We requested our first two stops (Argyle for sparkling wine, which we found somewhat disappointing, and Dundee Bistro for lunch and Ponzi wines, both of which were excellent), but asked Sea to Summit to suggest a place for great pinot noirs. Sean took us to White Rose, which was just fantastic. Next time I would definitely let them make all the choices!!! What really made the tour, however, was the fascinating commentary from Sean on topics ranging from a history of the Willamette wine region to mushrooming in Oregon. At the end of the tour, we felt we had a much greater appreciation for many facets of this beautiful part of Oregon, not just their wine. From a logistics perspective, Sean was absolutely impeccable--there was great communication on pick up times/locations and he helped us stay on schedule without being overbearing or intrusive. He even spent some of his waiting time helping us track down a wine I'd really enjoyed but was currently out of stock at the Bistro, and contacted me later with a sparkling wine recommendation. I've been on a few wine tours, and this ranks as one of my very favorites!

We were lucky to have Shahn as our tour guide. My boyfriend and I originally planned to do the wine and waterfalls tour but it wasn't available for our requested date. Shahn was nice enough to offer an alternative trip on the Willamette Valley Wine tour. We spent the entire day driving to 3 different wineries and getting lunch at a very good deli that offered plenty of options. The bar tenders at each stop where very attentive and knowledgeable. We learned a lot about the wine scene in Portland and Shahn even suggested some other things to do during our trip including waterfalls, and the beach. I would definitely book another tour through Sea to Summit!

We had a group of 18 and were very pleased with the assistance in planning and execution that Sea to Summit Tours provided. Joshua and Sean are both from Portland and were very knowledgeable of the area. We had very specific requirements and they were easy to work with. Also, they own their own fleet of nice vans so the driving is comfortable. I highly recommend Sea to Summit Tours and Adventures. Tim B.

Sean our guide was so accomodating and organized. It was a great day with someone who have a great deal of wine knowledge and insight into the valley and community. Great value for the money. I had a lovely day! Margaret

Shawn provided an outstanding day tour - with his local background and Native American heritage plus extensive knowledge of geology, history, viniculture and wine making it made for a very fun and informative day. And a great deli for lunch.

First I want to thank Shahn for such a excellent tour! They usually want to fill the van for the tours of the Willamette Valley but he accommodated my two daughters and I. The wineries he choose were excellent and people there were wonderful. Shahn shared his knowledge of the Willamette Valley with us as well as his excellent knowledge of wine. My daughters can hardly wait to go with their husbands and have Shahn wow them with his knowledge and kindness.
