Tour Highlights

Niagara-On-The-Lake is transformed into a wintery wonderland, celebrating one of Canada’s most cherished products, Ontario Icewine. Oh, and it's not just icewine... you can sample lots of other wines and foods too.

Over 25 wineries from Niagara Region will be there to entice you with their icewines (and other wines too) and signature chefs will tempt you with icewine inspired culinary creations. Admire the the ice carvers create their amazing sculptures, listen to music and when you get cold, pop into any of the many restaurants and cafes to warm up a hot chocolate or perhaps something even stronger.

Check out the ice cream and gelato stores. Gelato in January? Why not?! :-)

Please note that tokens are required to sample wines and foods. Tokens are not included in the tour price, they can be purchased on site.
