River Tours Begin Feb.10th 2012
Water to Wine Combine the fun of a Ducky Kayak trip on the Verde River with wine tasting at the Alcantara Vineyards and you get the idea…the best of two worlds. The Classic Water to Wine tour begins with a one hour Ducky Kayak trip on a scenic stretch of the Verde Valley River with just enough chutes and riffles to add a bit of excitement without ruffling any feathers. Your Ducky Kayak trip ends in the shade of giant cottonwood Trees where you will take the gravel path up through the vineyards to the Tuscan farmhouse at the Alcantara Vineyards for your wine tasting delight. The Alcantara Vineyards is a favorite on the Verde Valley Wine Trail featuring award winning wines and friendly sommeliers who guide you through the tasting. The Wine Tasting room inside the Tuscan Farmhouse overlooks the vineyards and the rolling hills beyond. The Classic Water to Wine Tour features great photo ops, fabulous scenery, abundant wildlife, and excellent wine. You even get a credit for purchasing wine or gift shop mementos. The Classic Water to Wine tour is truly an unforgettable experience.

Tubing Madness
The fun begins when you meet us at the Beasley Flats Recreation Area (get a printable map and directions here) on the lush Verde River where you will board our shuttle with all your gear and head upstream to the put-in. Then the adventure begins! Shuttles depart every fifteen minutes. We provide the tubes and water cannons for those epic water fights as you ‘leisurely’ float downstream! Our Verde River tubes have a nylon outer shell with a net bottom. Tube rentals also include life jackets, helmets and water cannons. Expect to get lots of sun and very wet! The float takes from one to two hours depending on river conditions, so you can do one or two more runs if you arrive early enough (between 9 & 10 AM). Sedona Adventure tours will also shuttle you and your stuff to this fun in the sun adventure. Available 7 days a week from Memorial day (5/27/12) to Labor day (9/5/12). Essential Information:
