Malibu Wine Safari
I recently went to the Malibu Wine Safari in Malibu to do wine tasting since Napa is too far.
First off, you have to buy your tickets online. If it is a special/ important day, you should order them early since they do sell out. I got tickets for Friday at 10am in March. At first I thought 10am was WAY to early for wine tasting but I actually feel like it's the perfect time. The weather was perfect because it was a little chilly, but when you start tasting the wine it gets a little hotter and the sun also starts to come out.We took a huge safari cruiser that fit around 30 people and first stopped at the animals. Here we got to feed donkeys, horses, llamas and bison. (They really love taking selfies).

It was $65 for this whole part including two parts of wine tasting. The first part was three white wines and the second part was three red wines. All six wines were very good and very sweet. It wasn't too hard and they give you seconds if you want more of a certain one.

They included these little snacks with the red wines as well. We were able to see the whole vineyard which was really nice.
I also paid an extra $30 to see and feed Stanley the giraffe.

The whole tour lasted about an hour and a half to two hours. Overall it was very fun and if you don't want to see Stanley, the wine tasting part was worth the $65. I'm not sure if I would pay $30 for Stanley again but I obviously had to instagram this last picture since I did pay $30 for it. :)
I've never been to a Malibu Wine but I was thinking of taking my grandparents there before graduation. Not sure if the would like the big bus tour to the animals thought!
ReplyDeleteI was not a big fan of wine until I got so many bottles of free wine from my uncle. Since my uncle's best friend owns a winery in Napa, every time he comes visit my uncle he will bring so many bottles and give him for free.
ReplyDeleteIn Milan we organized a weekly event where we always let people try special wine with an open bar of wine later. Come to try it if you come to Italy.
ReplyDeleteYour picture with Stanley looks so cute! I've never done wine tasting in Malibu and I really want to try this one~~~
