A TASTE OF THE PACIFIC NORTHWEST


Tastings at Oregon’s vineyards and Sea Cider Farm in British Columbia reward the senses


Whet your appetite for fun While the call of the wild is a major draw for travelers to the Pacific Northwest, it’s the feast of sensory and culinary experiences that keeps them coming back for more! Portland is paradise for lovers of nature and nurture who enjoy ample servings of scenery, seafood – and wine – during their stay. Seattle tempts with farm-fresh tastes, colors and aromas, which lead them through places like Pike Place Market with epicurean delights. Vancouver Island charms with garden teas and cider, and Vancouver entices with chef-inspired walks through a gourmet wonderland and an over-the-top farewell dinner. Bon appetit!
