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.

If you're looking for an easy kayak trip followed by wine, this is your trip! The kayaking was pretty easy (only a few areas of river current, most was kayaking yourself) with a great guide (Mark)! You park your car at the winery, they shuttle you to the launch point (life vests provided), kayak for about 1.5 hours and you end up at the winery to enjoy some wine. We celebrated my bachelorette party and brought along a few drinks for the kayak trip :)

Had a great trip down the Verde w guide Eric. We had great weather in October and we enjoyed the rapids and twists n turns. Wine tasting was good too.

My friend, a first time kayaker, couldn't say enough about how much fun she had on this adventure! The kayak portion of the trip was really enjoyable. Sebastian was an awesome guide and gave us lots of informative snippets about the Verde River and history of the surrounding area. The most valuable advice he gave was to "embrace the backward!" I only wish someone had imparted this bit of wisdom long ago when I first learned to kayak - LOL. The winery is really lovely and I wish we had been able to take a tour of the lovely Tuscan inspired events facility - it looked really nice from afar. The staff at the winery were so entertaining and accommodating. We had a great time visiting with them and spending time on the patio. I highly recommend this tour.
