What to do and see in Walla Walla, Washington (WA): The Best Things to do for Honeymoon
Wineries are beginning to rival the sweet-tasting Walla Walla onion as the hallmark of this lovely town at the foot of the Blue Mountains. In fact, the combination of excellent wineries and appealing scenery has put Walla Walla on the map as one of the country's hottest new wine-touring regions. The town's rich history, starting with the Indian tribes who first settled here followed by the early pioneers, the establishment and subsequent tragic demise of a famous mission and then a gold rush, is also a tourist draw. Fascinating museums and historic attractions bring this past to life. Music and the arts are a vital part of this culturally conscious college town, which boasts one of the oldest symphony orchestras west of the Mississippi, frequent summertime blues and jazz concerts, arts festivals and at least 15 art galleries. A revitalized downtown features restored 19th-century buildings, restaurants, galleries and wine-tasting rooms. If you're itching for outdoor fun, head east for hiking, mountain biking and fishing in the Blue Mountains or take the relatively easy Stateline Loop bike trail to Oregon and back.

Thoroughly enjoyed our tasting experience. They had a table reserved for our small group, complete with blankets for each person (it was a chilly afternoon). I was impressed with their wines and Manager George-Anne was knowledgeable, fun and kept a great tempo for our tasting. The setting in the east hills is spectacular, surrounded by vineyards and lavender fields. We bought several bottles and some swag; I look forward to going back!

We stopped in here on a road trip. They offer only pick up with reservation which we only realized on arrival. They were able to accommodate us. Masks required (which I was happy with!). We bought wine and sangria to go. No wine tasting offered as their county is back to phase 1. Very gracious and lovely person who served us.

Lovely wines......always. Our tasting experience was personal, informative, and enjoyable. As with most things these days, we had to make an appointment. This was new for us with wine tasting. I must say that the setting and personal attention was nice. I hope that tastings in the future are like we experienced at Seven Hills.

The setting is just perfect. During Covid-19, they space out tables and are very careful about their protocol. The back lawn was just perfect and framed beautifully against the back drop of the pond. Wines are at excellent price point - both the Columbia, Icon and Reserve. Staff was very thoughtful with our three Westies. The lunch sandwich is very good but at a high price point. You can take your own there, though.

There was a great variety to chose from. The wines are high quality rather than high quantity. The decor of the tasting room is elegant yet fun. There are several little areas you can sit & enjoy your wine.
