Upcoming Trips 
CORONAVIRUS UPDATE: Covid-19 conditions and regulations change daily.  We will update this advisory periodically.
We expect all of our 2022 trips to operate as planned.  Countries across Europe are loosening their entry requirements as Omicron case numbers have dramatically declined.  Mask mandates indoors may persist in some locations.  Full vaccination is still required to enter some European countries, including a booster if your second shot is more than nine months old. We do not expect the situation in Ukraine to have any impact on our 2022 trips. We will advise our participants of detailed requirements for their trip as the departure date approaches.  We urge all our travelers to purchase trip insurance and read the terms carefully for exclusions and exceptions.  See Exploring Wine’s Terms and Conditions for your specific trip.

​Exploring Wine trips are about much more than wine, including all the following elements:
  • beautiful scenery and time to enjoy it
  • history, with opportunities to absorb it
  • city life and local culture time (museums, shopping, etc.)
  • winery visits and tastings, including talks with winemakers
  • free time to explore
  • chances to dine independently of our group
  • special pre-planned gourmet dinners
  • upscale boutique hotels
  • on the first day of the trip, a review of local history and culture
  • a briefing booklet with practical information, maps and profiles of key destinations
Our itineraries are fine for first-time visitors, but also feature some places that experienced travelers won’t have been to. And wine expertise certainly isn’t required! Meticulous pre-planning is a hallmark of these expeditions.
