The tour for wine and history lovers alike
About Us
Discover the best of wine and history together!
Wine History Tours was founded with a simple purpose: to be the best tour provider for wine lovers and history lovers alike.
The idea for Wine History Tours was born when our founder couldn’t decide which he liked better, drinking world-class Pinot Noir or watching award-winning documentaries. The solution, wine tours for those who love wine and history alike!
If you want to go to primary wine regions, learn the history, and taste the best wines—you are our clientele and we have a tour package for you!
We are currently booking Oregon Wine History Tours with Burgundy Wine History Tours and Tuscany Wine History Tours coming soon!
It is with great pleasure that we bring you a one-of-a-kind wine tour experience with elevated hospitality, top of the line amenities, and a historical narrative arc that will leave you with a deeper appreciation for your wine region of choice and its wines.
