A great experience

“We have just completed 3 individual day trips with Natalia from Vermontology Guided Tours. Each day was an absolute delight. Natalia was punctual, personable, very knowledgeable and we had lots of laughs. I would highly recommend Vermontology Guided Tours for anyone wishing to travel in Vermont. Thank you so much Natalia.”

Shelburne VinEyard

Shelburne, VT

Our first destination is Shelburne Vineyard. Their tasting room features Vermont-grown and Vermont-made wines and ciders, ranging from dry to semi-sweet to sweet. For over two decades, Shelburne Vineyard has been a pioneer and advocate of the Vermont wine region. Their goal is to elevate Vermont as a distinctive wine and cider region. We love their barn-style building and the patio seating with a view of the vineyard. Enhance your visit with local cheeses, charcuterie, jams, cured meats, and locally made crackers.

Charlotte Village Winery

Charlotte, VT

Next, we visit Charlotte Village Winery, established in 2001 by fourth-generation Vermonters. They began with blueberry wines from their 10-acre field and now produce various wines from both fruits and grapes. Sampling their wines while overlooking the blueberry fields and enjoying the Adirondack Mountains from their tasting deck is a delight. The warm, family-oriented atmosphere provides a unique experience.

Dakin Farm

Ferrisburgh, VT

A trip to Vermont wouldn’t be complete without stopping at a sugarhouse or farm store. Dakin Farm offers some of the finest Vermont-made products in their store, and their sugarhouse has been boiling sap every season for over 58 years! Explore all grades of pure Vermont maple syrup and watch a short educational video about its production. Dakin Farm also features cob-smoked meats, artisan Vermont cheeses, specialty gifts, and more.

Lincoln Peak Vineyard

New Haven, VT

Next, we head to Lincoln Peak Vineyard, a vine nursery specializing in hybrid grapes. The vineyard’s unique care for their vines, buildings, and overall geography and climate makes it a special place. The owners are committed to preserving the vineyard’s heritage and crafting exceptional wines. We love their delicious wines and the beautiful view from the porch overlooking a small pond. Enjoy your wine tasting with a local cheese and charcuterie plate for a complete experience.

woodchuck hard cider

Middlebury, VT

Our final stop is Woodchuck Hard Cider, produced by the Vermont Hard Cider Company in Middlebury. In 2011, it was the top-selling hard cider in the country. Woodchuck Hard Cider’s core varieties provide an authentic and unique cider experience for connoisseurs. With 20 ciders on tap and a large, charming barn tasting room, this location provides the perfect finish to the day.

Perfect Experience!
