Backcountry Wine Tours specializes in guided wine tours in the Willamette Valley.
The company offers Private and Joinable Tours that focus on small, boutique wineries and personalized itineraries. On the Private Tour guests receive a dedicated guide and their own van for a tailor-made 7.5-hour experience that includes a curated tasting route and an included lunch. Joinable Tours are full-day, small-group experiences with a maximum of eight guests, delivering intimate service, expert guidance, and a flexible itinerary that highlights the region’s scenery and top wineries.
Backcountry Wine Tours emphasizes convenience and thoughtful planning. Guides handle logistics, tasting appointments, and local knowledge so guests can relax and enjoy wine tastings without worrying about driving or scheduling. The business designs each day around guest preferences, whether that means prioritizing boutique producers, scenic stops, or educational tastings.
Safety and comfort are part of the service: private groups get a dedicated vehicle and guide for the entire 7.5-hour Private Tour, while joinable groups are kept small to preserve quality of experience. The company’s offerings are suitable for couples, friends, small groups, and visitors seeking a curated wine country day.
Each itinerary is crafted around available winery appointments and guest preferences to maximize time at tastings. Guests should review cancellation and booking policies when reserving. Availability varies seasonally; early booking helps secure preferred wineries and dates today.
