Join JH Travel on a relaxing spring weekend getaway celebrating that we are FINALLY getting close to warmer weather and planning outside activities! So, join JH Travel for wine, food and the opportunity to meet new friends!

We will begin by boarding a Hawkeye Stages motor coach and traveling to Danish Countryside Vine & Wines which is located among the rolling hills of western Iowa near Exira. A tour in a renovated European Style barn while learning about vitaculture practices along with a wine tasting. Breezy Hills Winery by Minden offers a spectacular panoramic view of the farmstead which offers another tour and wine tasting before departing for lunch at Quaker Steak & Lube in Council Bluffs. Although, it is not wine related the atmosphere in the restaurant is unique so we decided include it on our tour! Wine tasting will continue at Prairie Hawk Vineyards & Winery also located in Council Bluffs before dropping off our luggage at Comfort Suites so it will be in our rooms upon arrival later in the evening. We are excited to share the next attraction with each of you which is the Castle Unicorn located outside of Pacific Junction which is a beautiful setting for our evening meal! We will have a wine tasting (not confirmed at this time) at the castle along with a tour followed by a wonderful meal that will complete our first day of the “An Iowa Wine Trail”.

The second day will begin with a deluxe continental breakfast at the hotel before traveling to Prairie Crossing Vineyard & Winery. This is a family business that has a three acre vineyard that is making six varieties of wine. Then onto Glenwood for a tasting at Vine Street Cellars which is located right downtown on the square. Lunch, a wine tour and tasting will be held at Sugar Clay Winery & Vineyards by Thurman. The Wabash Wine Company welcomes our group located by Shenandoah for a tour & tasting. It is now time to begin our journey back to Newton with a fast food stop (on your own) along the way.

Looking forward to having you join JH Travel for a wonderful wine weekend getaway!

Tour includes: motor coach transportation, overnight accommodations at Comfort Suites, 4 meals (1 deluxe continental breakfast, two lunches and one dinner), all taxes and gratuities on the above mentioned attractions.
