| Georgia’s blossoming wine country attracts connoisseurs, active travelers seeking something different for their next vacation The growing interest in the wine country of North Georgia coupled with the area’s beautiful natural setting have many asking the question ‘is there a way to combine outdoor activity with an interest in wine?’ Discover Adventures, an Atlanta-based tour operator, answers the question by announcing its new Georgia Wine Country Excursion. “A biking and hiking vacation designed around up and coming vineyards is a beautiful marriage,” says Tom McManners, president and founder of Discover Adventures. “North Georgia is unique – the wineries are producing high-quality wines, but the area isn’t oversaturated. This means that the scenic countryside is still unspoiled, and the wine makers can actually have a meaningful interaction with visitors…” The idea of a bicycling and hiking vacation in wine country is not without precedent – there are plenty of tour operators who run trips through Napa Valley or Sonoma County, Ca. For the past two years, Discover Adventures has been leading multi-sport tours visiting the vineyards and châteaux of the Loire Valley in France. No other company, however, offers tours in Georgia’s wine country. Once home to one or two small vineyards producing mostly sweet wine, North Georgia’s vineyards are expanding and improving exponentially. With over a dozen vineyards producing a wealth of grapes, including many of the better-known European varietals, North Georgia is gaining national notoriety for their quality wines. Tiger Mountain Vineyards of Tiger, GA has won gold medals in both the American Wine Society and Wines of the South Competition. Discover Adventures is the Southeast leader in multi-sport travel. They offer active vacations which blend the region's best bicycling routes, hiking trails and waterways into a well-rounded leisure adventure for everyone. Combining exquisite culinary experiences with regional excellence in accommodations, the tours are driven by attention to detail and extraordinary customer service.
