What To Expect

Verde River

The Classic Water to Wine tour begins with approximately an hour and a half inflatable kayak trip on a scenic stretch of the Verde River with just enough chutes and riffles to add a bit of excitement without ruffling any feathers. Your river trip ends in the shade of giant Cottonwood trees at the confluence of Oak Creek and the Verde River. Here, you take the gravel path up through the vineyards to the Tuscan farmhouse at Alcantara Vineyards for your wine tasting delight

Alcantara Vineyards and Winery

The Alcantara Vineyards is a favorite on the Verde Valley Wine Trail, featuring award-winning wines and friendly sommeliers to guide you through the tasting. Each customer gets a $20 credit (included in price) to use for wine tastings, food or gifts.

Totally fun, relaxing, and beautiful. The Water to Wine kayak trip is a self-guided 2-hr float through a section of the Verde River with plenty of greenery and wildlife viewing. We even saw a turtle and king snake (which is a totally harmless snake)! Our Verde Adventures driver gave all the directions needed for a fun and safe float down the river. The boats were top quality, too. At the end of our kayak trip we were told where and how to clean up for the next part of our fun - drinking wine on the grassy lawn at Alcantara. With a $20 per person credit at Alcantara, we were able to purchase wine and appetizer food for our group of six. The wine is easy drinking and the appetizer plates kind of standard (oddly, they give you too much cheese/meat/hummus and not enough bread/crackers/celery/carrots)m but who can complain when the views are gorgeous. Our kids even enjoyed watching the vineyard cats.

Loved the water to wine kayak tour! #1 thing we recommend if you want to get out of Sedona for a fun time! I wanted to get right back in the water once it was over. The wine was also very good. Even got a brief tour from our driver on the way to the launch site with fun facts! Saw an otter and had fun on the baby rapids. Lovely time!!
