A trip to Walla Walla almost always includes wine, as it should. The region has achieved worldwide acclaim for the diversity and quality of its wine. The Walla Walla valley produces many great varieties of red wine grapes. But Walla Walla winemakers, who source grapes from the entire state, create the full spectrum of reds, whites, and rosés. First-time visitors who come, with good reason, for the big bold Cabernets, Syrah and Merlots are often surprised by the number of Sauvignons, Viognier, and Chardonnays that make the trip home.
Visitors to Walla Walla may arrive by one of the three Horizon Air flights from Seattle and rent a car for their time in the Valley. Many travelers will make the 4 hours drive from one of the three major cities in the region. Walla is 254 miles from Boise, Idaho, 243 miles from Portland, Oregon and 272 miles from Seattle, Washington.

With three great live theater venues, a play or comedy show is often part of a great weekend in Walla Walla.
