Kelowna: E-Bike Wine Tour with Okanagan Valley Lunch

Summary

Glide past Okanagan vineyards taste honey wine and relax with lunch

You’ll pedal easy along quiet roads outside Kelowna on an e-bike tour through Okanagan Valley vineyards and countryside. Taste wines and honey mead at three stops, then settle in for a farm-fresh lunch overlooking rows of vines. Expect friendly faces, honest flavors—and maybe a new favorite wine or two.

What’s the experience like?

We started rolling south out of Kelowna, the e-bikes humming quietly under us—honestly, I was a little nervous at first (it’s been years since I’d biked anywhere that wasn’t flat). The air smelled like dry grass and something sweet drifting off the lake. Gyro Beach flashed by on our left, people already out with paddleboards and dogs. It felt good to move, you know? Not in a hurry, just letting the bike do most of the work up those gentle hills.

The first stop was Hidden Vines—tiny place, family-run. Our guide, Sarah, waved us in and handed me a glass before I’d even unclipped my helmet. She talked about how they farm differently here—no big machines, just hands in the dirt. I tried to listen but kept getting distracted by the way sunlight hit the rows of vines. One of their whites tasted almost grassy (in a good way), and Sarah laughed when I tried to describe it. We chatted about her kids running wild between the vines—felt like we were guests more than customers.

Priest Creek came next—newer winery, but you could tell they cared about every bottle. There was this barrel-aged red that surprised me; I’m not usually into reds at lunch but it worked somehow with the breeze picking up and all those open fields around us. The last stop was Meadow Vista for honey wine—I’d never tried mead before. The tasting room smelled faintly floral, like wildflowers after rain. Lunch was outside on their patio: local greens, roasted chicken, bread that was still warm. Honestly? I didn’t expect to feel so relaxed sitting there watching bees drift over the lavender.

I keep thinking about that ride back—the light slanting across orchards, legs tired but not sore thanks to those bikes (I used the throttle more than I’ll admit). It wasn’t fancy or rushed; just slow enough to notice things you’d miss in a car. If you’re looking for a day trip from Kelowna that mixes wine tasting with actual fresh air—and doesn’t make you feel like you’re on a tour bus—this is it.
