If you are looking for the perfect event, look no further! Wine Voyage is simply flawless. Whether you are searching for a team building activity, a networking event, or a fun social gathering, The Wine Voyage’s exclusive experiences are tailored to your every need. Everything is planned out with an attention to detail that I had never seen before. I have gone to several Wine Voyage nights, and I have loved every single one of them. They were my favorite nights in San Diego and now that I have moved to Florida, I have flown back to attend one and will continue to do so in the future. Thank you, Wine Voyage!

I had the opportunity to join a group event hosted by The Wine Voyage and it was such a special and memorable experience to say the least. The location is beautiful and offers some incredible sunset views in a serene setting. Myrna puts a lot of heart and thought into the experience, from the wine selection to the paired appetizers and the educational session she guides the guests through. I have to give a shout-out to the details too, the menus she creates along with her beautiful table settings and the ambiance of the house all add to the magic. I highly recommend this experience. It is truly special, unique and provides an intimate setting to build relationships with your teammates or friends.
