Customer Testimonials

Marisa D.

Portland, Oregon

  • This was my first time with Embrace Oregon, and my friends and I were not disappointed! We bought a deal through Living Social (wine tasting for 2, all tastings included, plus an olive oil tasting and a nice bread/cheese/veggie tray as a snack at one of the wineries).

  • Sherry is absolutely fantastic! She gave great directions to the parking structure in McMinnville. She brought her own camera and snapped photos all day, which was great! Sherry is full of fun facts and information about the surrounding towns and wineries. At each winery, Sherry would get your bags/purchases (if you bought any wine) and bring it to the car for you. She is excellent at customer service! She also gave us great tips when tasting the different wines, what to look/taste for, etc.

  • I had only been to 1 of the wineries we visited (Carlton Cellars, Durant, and Armonea Vineyard).

  • At the end of the tour, Sherry emailed me the link to the Embrace Oregon Facebook page to view our photos. She doesn't tag anyone or put anyone's name & she even told us to email her if we wanted any photos removed or taken down. 

  • I will definitely be an Embrace Oregon customer again. Sherry made everything so easy, and she was a crack up! Highly recommend.

  • I can't say enough good things about Sherry and her personalized wine tour. We had a group of five staying in McMinnville, and she picked us up from the house we were renting. She took us to three vineyards, all unique and boutique-style wineries. They were definitely places we would have needed help to find. Along the way, she told us great information about the area and the history of the wines and even took pictures for us that she posted on Facebook. One of the winemakers was even from the same small town in Texas as my mother!It was one of the best days my family has ever had. Spectacular views, great way, fantastic pumpkin chocolate chip cookies...

  • Sherry was wonderful! She picked us up at our place on time, scheduled the tour and made all the appointments. She also has a lot of knowledge about Oregon and wine she will tell you about. She was great about taking pictures of us but also giving us time to ourselves. I strongly recommend Sherry for your wine tours.

  • We had a fabulous day with Sherry! She was a delight to work with as she planned out the perfect tour to fit our preferences. We also enjoyed learning about the areas and different wineries as we drove through the area. She had the perfect balance of making sure we had what we needed and leaving us to enjoy the tastings.

Tayler K.

  • Sherry was a fantastic tour guide! So informative and kind and really went the extra mile to make sure we all had an amazing time, including providing a tasty lunch! She brought us to three different wineries that were all unique and offered beautiful views of the Willamette valley and a diverse selection of wine. Would highly recommend Embrace Oregon tours! Can't wait to go again!

Jon M.

San Diego, California

  • Had a great day visiting 4 local wineries and learning about the area. Sherry is such a sweetheart and is so knowledgeable of wine country. We bought a deal off Living Social that included a 5 hour winery tour. Sherry arrived early and timed everything perfectly. She even takes pictures of your group throughout the day to post on their FB page.

    Highly recommend Embrace Oregon. Let Sherry do the driving so that you can enjoy some fantastic local wine without having to worry about driving.

Seattle, Washington

  • Embrace Oregon is fantastic! My friends and I had a great time on our wine tour for my bachelorette weekend.

  • Sherry is such a lovely person. I let her pick the wineries and we enjoyed all three places we stopped. She even did a detour on the way back to Beverly Cleary’s home for my friend who is a big fan! Sherry’s presence added so much fun to our tour. We enjoyed her as much as we did the wine!

  • The van we rode in was pristinely clean and very comfortable. I’m on the taller side and was wary of a passenger van/squat to get to your seat situation. But her van was roomy and required no perching to reach your seat. It all made for an enjoyable transportation experience!

  • This company knows how to give a tour! Our tour guide Sherry Parker was just incredible! Sherry was both super knowledgeable about the area, and a delight to know! We had a spectacular day and visited three completely different and excellent wineries. We were treated like royalty and picked up and dropped off at our rental house on time and in a very clean and comfortable van. We had lunch at a wonderful restaurant that Sherry recommended and really had the best day ! I could not recommend Embrace Oregon more highly!!

Larry and Tiffanie

Denver, Colorado

  * We just wanted to express our sincere thanks to our excellent tour guide, Sherry Parker. Sherry was so knowledgeable about the area and the wineries. She scheduled beautiful and interesting tastings--she stored our wine--she answered all of our questions. We often hire guides when we are in new areas and Sherry was by far the best we've ever had. When she sent us the link to our tour photos on facebook--we told her that we were not on facebook. About 30 minutes later, Sherry was at our RV with a thumb drive of our photos. That is above and beyond! Thank you! 

Andy W.

  • Sherry’s knowledge of the region and her relationships with the wineries made our day perfect! 

​

Karen W.

​St. Louis, Missouri, USA

  • All of your winery picks were beautiful and tasty! Thank you, again, for the wonderful memories.

  • We definitely enjoyed our wine country tour!

Pamela J.

  • Sherry did a wonderful job. The car was perfect, her knowledge of wine and local history was very interesting. She was a real treat and we felt lucky to have found her. If you're considering getting a driver, book with this company. They are the full package.

​

Neal B. 

  • My fiance and I loved our tour of three unique, off-the-beaten-path wineries that Sherry took us too. She knows many folks in wine country making the experience much more personal than were we to drop in on our own. She knows a lot of the history of the valley as well as the wine industry there and what makes it unique. For the price, I would highly doubt anyone could beat Sherry's great tour. We will be back for sure.

  • Our group had an absolutely tremendous experience exploring the Dundee Hills AVA with Sherry Parker. Weeks before our trip began, Sherry went out of her way to help us plan the perfect day -- recommending wineries based on our preferences and arranging a perfectly-timed itinerary that allowed us to visit four wineries with wonderful views/Pinot.

  • She promptly picked us up from our AirBnB in McMinnville. She was kind enough to take photos of us throughout our relaxing day, and she was incredibly knowledgeable about the Willamette Valley region and wines. The van that she transported us in was very spacious for our group. She provided us with water bottles, a special sweet treat and allowed us to charge our phones. Most importantly, she was extremely kind and a pleasure to spend time with. We so appreciated everything and can't recommend her enough!

Valerie A. 

  • Wonderful adventure! Sherry is just a wealth of knowledge and she makes it so fun and relaxed! No matter what outing you choose to do with Embrace Oregon I am positive you will have a good experience and be looking forward to coming back and trying something new. We did a wine tour, it was just perfect, everything was planned well and very enjoyable.
