Later, we visit the Nk’Mip Desert Cultural Centre for a guided tour to learn about the heritage and traditions of the Osoyoos Indian Band. The surrounding landscape forms part of Canada’s only true desert ecosystem. We then enjoy a wine tasting at Nk’Mip Cellars - the first Indigenous-owned winery in North America.
The afternoon and evening are at leisure. You may choose to relax on the beach, explore the town, or simply enjoy the lakeside setting.
