Driving Tour: Gourmet Niagara

Gourmet Niagara Driving Tour, Wednesday July 8, 2026

Join PCA/UCR members on WEDNESDAY July 8 for the Fifth Annual Gourmet Niagara Driving Tour. Having a mid-week event reduces the traffic and gives us more food options.

After gathering for registration at the Niagara Gateway Information Centre adjacent to the QEW, our first stop will be one of the best-kept secrets in the Niagara area, the Painted Ladies of Grimsby Beach, a unique historic landmark. Then, we are hoping to stop for a private tour of three gorgeous prize-winning local gardens, conveniently located adjacent to one another.

Our route features winding back roads, and a number of passes up and down the Niagara escarpment, with fabulous views of Lake Ontario. We will enjoy a light lunch at a Niagara Region destination, and a brief stop at the only cheese maker in the Niagara Peninsula. You may choose to load up on some gourmet cheeses and baked goods.

Our afternoon will consist of a tour and tasting at Flat Rock Cellars, an award-winning winery, and another drive through winding and scenic roads. We will end the day with a gourmet meal on the patio at 13th Street Winery, another renowned Niagara winery, where you will have the opportunity for socializing with fellow P-Car owners.

All stops feature excellent photography opportunities. You are encouraged to spend the weekend in the area, there are many scenic, culinary and entertainment options.

Hosted by Gerry Cornwell and Jeff Millman
