Frind Estate Winery is the first beach winery in North America and is situated on the historic Bennett Property in West Kelowna, British Columbia.

With over 500 years of family farming history, Markus wanted to combine his two passions; technology and agriculture. Today Frind Estate Winery is one of the most advanced wineries in the world, using cutting-edge technology to create truly distinctive wines. Taste wine whilst savoring the lake view today!
Duration: 30 minutes
Stop At: Mt. Boucherie Estate Winery, 829 Douglas Rd, West Kelowna, British Columbia V1Z 1N9 Canada
The Okanagan/Similkameen is this kind of place. Here winemakers strive to express what’s distinctive about their region, creating wines that are uniquely British Columbian. Our appellations are at the northernmost limit of wine growing, claiming the territory of last frontier. Here, grape quality is ultimately enhanced by the vines’ struggle to yield ripe fruit in a shorter growing season. To some, it might seem miraculous that grapes can thrive here, but thanks to the incredible lakes, hills, and soils, they do, and they do very special things.
Duration: 30 minutes
Stop At: Indigenous World Winery, 2218 Horizon Drive, West Kelowna, British Columbia V1Z 3L4 Canada
Indigenous World Winery merges modern culture with Indigenous history. The Indigenous first peoples of the Okanagan and Similkameen Valleys located in British Columbia Canada are the Okanagan Syilx people. They have lived on and protected these lands for thousands of years. Robert Louie and his wife Bernice are descendants of the Syilx people and are connected to the land and its rich history.
Duration: 30 minutes
Stop At: Quails' Gate Winery, 3303 Boucherie Rd, West Kelowna, British Columbia V1Z 2H3 Canada
The 160 acres of incredible soil we call home sits below the extinct volcano of Mount Boucherie.
Its deposits work like a time release capsule. Combined with warm summers and mild winters, our volcanic rocks have decomposed and recombined into soluble molecules that are easily separated into their elements and accessible to plants – including vineyards. The result is some of the richest agricultural land on the planet.
Duration: 40 minutes
Stop At: Black Swift Vineyards, 2345 Boucherie Rd, Kelowna, British Columbia V1Z 2E7 Canada
Black Swift Vineyards and Screaming Frenzy came about when we were spit-balling winery concepts at our production facility in Peachland in 2014. We wanted something that celebrated our vineyards and amazing growers, but also wanted something that in an industry full of snobbery, didn’t take itself too seriously.
We jokingly started to throw around bird names, as the hatch is located right beside Quails Gate, we had a long list of Native Okanagan birds in front of us, looking for something to jump off the page. Black Swift made the shortlist, and after a little research, it became clear to us this was the name! There were two aspects in particular that we loved. There was the fact that the Black Swift lays only one egg at a time which was a perfect analog to our single-vineyard focused releases, and also that a group of Black Swift birds is known as a “Screaming Frenzy” what a fantastic name for anything!
Duration: 30 minutes
Stop At: The Hatch, 3225 Boucherie Rd, West Kelowna, British Columbia V1Z 4E4 Canada
Welcome to the hatch where we are open 11 - to 6 each and every wonderful day. Come keep us company and we'll keep you company if you know what I mean.
Duration: 30 minutes
Stop At: Volcanic Hills Estate Winery, 2845 Boucherie Rd, West Kelowna, British Columbia V1Z 2G6 Canada
Great wine starts in the vineyard. Through caring first for the land, and careful varietal selection, we are able to sustainably grow our grapes to produce wines that require minimal intervention in the winery. The result - each unique vintage we create wines that showcase this land of opportunity and the true terroir of the Okanagan Valley.
Duration: 30 minutes
Stop At: Off The Grid Organic Winery, 3623 Glencoe Rd, West Kelowna, British Columbia V4T 1L8 Canada
Come and visit our family-owned and operated permaculture winery. Taste award-winning wines in our straw bale, solar-powered tasting room. Shop our local artisan gift shop. Visit the goats on the roof as well as our sheep, chickens & other farm animals. Eat at the local & artisan pizzeria food truck. See how our passion for sustainability is crafted into everything we do.
Duration: 30 minutes

To celebrate my wife's birthday, we reviewed many Wine Tour companies in Kelowna. Well, we couldn't have made a better decision by selecting Metropolis Wine Tours!!! The service provided by this company was Superb and Beyond Expectations. Rod was Fantastic with the wineries selection, and his knowledge, professionalism and sense of humor were amazing, and really made us enjoy an unforgettable experience and day. We received a call weeks after our visit to let us know that we had won a draw, the company does on a monthly basis, and will be receiving some Free wine for a few months from one of the visited wineries. We will not hesitate to contract their services in our next visit to the beautiful Kelowna Valley.

We had an excellent time with Metropolis Wine Tours. We booked a half-day wine tour with them for October 12, 2021, and it turned out to be fantastic. The selection of wineries was quite diverse and ranged from small, craft wineries, to large ones. Special appreciation for Robin, who conducted our tour. She was an amazing host, a knowledgeable guide, and very patient and helpful with our kids. She made sure that we get to enjoy the experience at wineries, while she looked after the kids. Metropolis Wine Tours are highly recommended, and Robin is the best!!My partner and I had the best time on this wine tour. Our driver Rod was so polite, and took such good care of everyone, loaded our wine in the vehicle for us and made sure we were on time. Highly recommend. Thanks again!

Our guide, Rod was both personable and knowledgeable! We were driven to five wineries in West Kelowna. Each was totally different with wonderful wines at each. Rod knew all the shortcuts to getting us the best servers and tastings. We were never really rushed for time even though we knew we had a schedule to keep. Rod provides water, snacks and a great sense of humour! We will certainly book with Metropolis again!
