Join us for this truly unique wine country experience and enjoy a stress-free day soaking up the magic of Northern Michigan's outdoors! Our most popular tour takes you through the scenic countryside, where you cycle along vineyards, try delicious wine, and take in spectacular views at over 7 wineries just off the trail! The Leelanau Wine Trail Tour is self-guided, allowing you to set your own pace so you can go further or stay a little longer at your favorite winery!

The tour starts and stops at our shop in downtown Suttons Bay. Sit down with our knowledgeable tour guides as they curate the perfect wine route and show you all the secret spots on and off trail. After we chat about your day, clip on your helmet and pedal down to the nearby Leelanau Trail. This paved pathway is gentle and mostly flat, but you will be greeted with some rolling hills as you detour down quiet roads to the wineries. Throughout your trip our team will provide support, bringing you a delicious catered lunch to enjoy overlooking vineyards and picking up any wine purchases along the way. We also provide service for flat tires, mechanical failure, losing your way, severe weather rescue, and just about anything else that may pop up! Think of us as your distant command center helping you to pursue your own perfect day.
