Ride a Helicopter or Kayak a River on Sedona Wine Tours



Some fine red, white and even desert wines can be tasted and integrated with helicopter or kayaking adventures in the Sedona wine tours that are available in this particular northern Arizona vacationland. Huddled along the mellow Verde River are a number of wineries complete with winetasting rooms. When you add the beautiful scenery of cottonwood trees, bald eagles, blue herons and hawks along a winding river, you acquire a superb vacation encounter that's second-to-none.

Take a three-hour kayak float down the Verde River. There's no better way to relax, yet undergo a bit of adventure while shooting about 12 minor rapids of this river. There's nothing to stress over. The Verde River is a reasonably mild body of water that's really more of a large creek, than a river. You receive a pre-trip course from the qualified guides, which means you'll know exactly what to expect on this river float.



After about an hour and a half on the water, you're back on dry land at the convergence of the Verde River and Oak Creek at the Tuscan-style farmhouse of the Alcantara Vineyards and Winery. The 87 acres on this vineyard cultivates as many as 19,000 vines of grapes that are picked and cultivation into great wine varieties crafted on the grounds. You get credits to investigate some glasses of wine and you can pick up your own bottles of white, red, light, or full-bodied versions found in this particular choice of the Sedona wine tours. There's time to tour the grounds, explore the small chapel or visit the river. After a second hour and a half at the vinery, you're transported back to Sedona.
