If the timing works out, wine lovers should consider a stop at Monte Creek Winery. This is the largest winery in the Kamloops area. The tasting room is elegant, the valley setting gorgeous and the wines surprisingly good! The tasting fee is $10/person and includes four wines.

The upscale restaurant features alfresco dining (closed on rainy days and during the colder months) as well as a dog-friendly licensed picnic area.
