After lunch we will journey beyond the blooms to explore the majestic wonders of not one, but two stunning waterfalls: Albion Falls and Felkers Falls. These natural marvels aren't just breathtaking sights; they're steeped in fascinating tales waiting to be uncovered. Did you know that Albion Falls holds the nickname "Lover's Leap"? Join us on this escapade to unravel the romantic legend behind this enchanting moniker.

The excitement doesn't end there! Our expedition culminates with a visit to a charming & idyllic family-operated vineyard, where you'll indulge in a tantalizing flight of four wines including a decadent dessert wine. Let your taste buds embark on a sensory journey, and if any particular vintage captivates your palate, don't hesitate to bring home a bottle or two from their boutique.
