    Carisa ROCKS!
    Carisa was absolutely amazing! Her knowledge of the vineyard’s history and the surrounding region, paired with her exceptional wine expertise made it an experience that exceeded our expectations. I have been at Mission Hill for a wine tour in the past, but she shed an entirely new light on the vineyard. We’ll be back and hope to have her as our guide once again! Awesome job!

    A beautiful experience
    Mission Hill is a stunning venue with an equally stunning selection of wines. We did a tour of the ground and the cellar, culminating in a tasting of some of the best wines by varietal I have ever had. Our guide Adrienne was also very knowledge and responsive to questions.
    Hello and thank you for taking the time to share your detailed feedback! We are thrilled to hear that you have nothing but amazing things to say about our team at Mission Hill Family Estate and what we offer.

    Amazing Mission Hill Moment
    Carissa is a phenomenal wine ambassador for Mission Hill. I had an amazing tour experience with her and feel more educated leaving than when I arrived. If you can request a guide I’d highly recommend asking for Carissa to curate your #Missionhillmoment.
    Hello 60shae, it sounds like you had a wonderful visit and that Carissa did an exceptional job. Until we see you again, thank you.

    Beautiful winery knows how to maximize its beauty
    Amy led our couple’s winery tour so kindly and professionally! We totally didn’t expect the sophisticated philosophy of the winery design and such a passion for the wine of the founder. Apéro after the tour with paired wines was extraordinary as well. Highly recommend!
    Hello Wonryong R and thank you for the 5 Star Review. Amy is such a professional. It is great to hear your pleasant surprise on the the level at which Mission Hill Family Estate operates and this is all due to the founder. The whole property operates at that level. Thank you for noticing.

    Behind the Cellar Door tour with Carissa
    Myself and my parents had a really lovely time with Carissa. She mentioned she was relatively new to Mission Hill but she was so knowledgeable and could answer any and all questions we had. Such a friendly and approachable tour guide, highly recommend!
    Hello Malread M, it is so nice to hear you and your parents had such a great time. And Carissa is a find for us this year, thank you for noticing. Hope to see you again, take care.

    Nikki was a pleasure and very personable. Could convey all the details about the family history and estate really well. Was able to really make the heritage resonate with us from outside of the okanagan, and able to see the family vision manifest throughout the tour. I appreciate the insight.
    Thank you for your kind review! We're delighted to hear that Nikki was a pleasure to have as your guide. Her personable nature and in-depth knowledge allowed her to convey the family history and estate details seamlessly, making the heritage resonate with you. We appreciate your feedback and hope to welcome you back soon!

    Well worth the visit
    Nikki made this experience one to remember. A wealth of information on wine and Mission Hill. An excellent knowledge on the regions wines and the special history and qualities of the wine and the architecture. Our visit was special and the tasting and good pairing perfect. Completed with a taste of Oculus. Thank you!

    Amazing tour and wine tasting at Mission Hill
    My boyfriend and I had such a great time at Mission Hill. We chose the Behind the Cellar door tour and Amy, our tour guide, was very informative, optimistic and knowledgeable! She took the time to get to know us as well and recommended a couple places to visit in downtown Kelowna during our visit.

Thank you for your kind words, and we hope to welcome you back soon!

Mission Hill was the worst experience we have had in the 7 years we have been visiting Okanogan wineries. The individual conducting our tasting was arrogant and condescending. It was the most negative experience one could imagine. I will never subject my family to that kind of rude behaviour again. Mission Hill is off our list. We went from there to a completely wonderful experience at Mount Boucherie Winery where we were treated as people. Do yourself a favour and avoid Mission Hill.

We visited here once again and can't tell you enough how much we enjoy our experience over and over. It is the best tour experience in the Okanagan, in our opinion. We are wine club members and one of the main reasons we joined is so we can take guests up to not only see this beautiful property but to taste their award winning wines. This is a must see place when visiting the area, and is great property to see even for those who don't want to drink wine. For art lovers, there is the beautiful architecture, the hand crafted tower bells, the Henry Moore sculpture, the Marc Chagall tapestry and the grand piano which used to belong to David Foster and has been autographed by hundreds of stars. Take a wine tour and listen to the fascinating history of how the winery got its start (one of the first in this area!) Get to understand the passion that the owner has for this fabulous valley. Taking a tour will allow you to see the magnificent wine cellar carved out of volcanic rock and view the priceless private wine tasting room where there is even a bottle that was given to the winery from Kate and William on their visit. The views of the valley and the lake from the property are stunning. Their gift shop has some amazing finds and is well worth a look. The dining room is first class and offers some delicious food. We did another tour yesterday and want to thank Anna for a fabulous tour and tasting. She is fantastic and has a great knowledge and passion for the product they offer and to this special place. Thank you Anna for a truly great experience!

A short walk from our hotel in West Kelowna, it was a very worthwhile lunch overlooking the hills outside, under cover, sampling the local wine. Its a set menu with a wine flight, so don't take the car. Our server was a lovely Japanese lady who was very knowledgeable about the wine and the food we were presented with. Its a lovely walk through the fields from downtown and buses seem to regularly pass close by. We're glad we took this recommendation from the hotel.

As many others have said Maxwell was an excellent guides for our cellar tour.

Turned out to be just the four of us so he spent time explaining the history of the estate and talking about the extensive vineyards etc.

We finished with a tasting with some chef’s paired nibbles - it was a lovely experience and I got many great shots from it - good job Maxwell.

We don’t really love the wines but you simply can’t fault how stunning the surroundings are !
