Escape the city for a delightful one-day bus trip from Toronto to the charming Prince Edward County, often simply known as "The County." This relaxing getaway offers a perfect blend of natural beauty, small-town charm, and a taste of the region's famous wines. Whether you're looking for a scenic picnic spot, a leisurely stroll through a quaint town, or a sip of something special, this tour has it all!

Our journey begins with a scenic drive to Lake on the Mountain Provincial Park. Perched high above the Bay of Quinte, this unique park features a mysterious lake that has no visible source of water yet remains full year-round. Here, you’ll have time to enjoy a picnic with breathtaking views overlooking the vibrant blue waters of both the lake and the bay far below. Please note that a picnic lunch is not included with the tour price -- you are welcome to bring your own lunch (there is lots of space in the cargo bays of the bus for coolers etc.) or purchase something from our morning stop on the way to the county.

Next, we visit the picturesque town of Picton. Nestled in the heart of Prince Edward County, Picton is known for its historic architecture, boutique shops, and cozy cafés. You’ll have free time to wander at your own pace—whether browsing local galleries, sampling fresh baked goods, or exploring the heritage charm of Main Street.

We cap off our day with a visit to one of the area’s renowned wineries. Enjoy a structured tasting of 4 wines. Whether you prefer crisp whites, robust reds, or something in between, this tasting is a treat for your palate and a fitting finale to a memorable day.

Join us for a refreshing day out of the city this Labour Day weekend and discover why Prince Edward County is one of Ontario’s hidden gems!
