Those who want to get exceptionally adventurous can embark on a hot air balloon flight off to soak in some panoramic views of the region’s beautiful estates and striking scenery, with year-round sunrise flights offering an opportunity for the most romantic way to start a new day. There’s also Small Barn, a beautifully designed modern bistro serving great food paired with a spirited atmosphere. Visit Old Town Temecula and try E.A.T Marketplace, which is a healthy spot free of any food involving GMOs, antibiotics, hormones, or pesticides. What’s a great drink if not paired with a tasty meal? Temecula offers plenty of dining options. Those who prefer beer: no fear! There are several breweries and craft distilleries in Temecula too.
If you want to feel like you’re on a vacation abroad without the flight, admire the romantic architecture and Old World-inspired design at Europa Village Winery. I loved visiting the cave at Oak Mountain Winery, which was a unique experience. There are nearly 50 wineries sprinkled across this beautiful region’s rolling hills and valleys, making many types of wines, including syrah, cabernet sauvignon, zinfandel, chardonnay, and pinot noir.Īdmire the gorgeous scenery at Fazeli Cellars or take a tour at Wiens Family Cellars.
For those who drink alcohol, wine tasting is an absolute must in Temecula.
