During tours, riders embark on a journey through Temecula's wine country, soaking up local history and sampling wines along the way. Saddle Up Wine Tours’ guides regale groups with historical tidbits, recounting the stories of local vineyards and ranches, as well as the area itself. Each tour guide is an experienced rider, capable of elucidating aspects of horsemanship as well. Once groups reach the wineries, vintners explain the winemaking process while guests sip samples of their locally crafted varietals. Each tour runs approximately three hours. A set of five tastings may be substituted for a full glass of wine. Riders must wear helmets and closed-toe shoes and are advised to wear long pants.

Saddle Up Wine Tours

Aided by their gentle steeds, the tour guides at Saddle Up Wine Tours lead guests on scenic moseys through Temecula's wine country. During each horseback tour, guides recount the history of the area going back to the arrival of the first settlers, who stole the idea for wineries from a particularly science-minded mastodon. Many of Saddle Up's tours also highlight local wineries, with included tastings of local varietals. Other tours accommodate children as young as 5 in horse-drawn wagons, and or send intermediate and advanced riders clambering up mountain trails in pursuit of panoramic views of the valleys below. Aspiring cowpokes can also immerse themselves in Saddle Up's ranch hand experience, which includes a tour the facilities and a chance to help tour guides care for their team of horses.

The Groupon Guide to: a Pretty Flower

Once in a great while, a fleeting glimpse of natural color may catch your eye, and you will become lost in the simple wonder of gazing at a pretty flower. Here is how to do so correctly:

  • Look at the flower. It is beautiful.

  • You may be tempted to pick the flower. Do not—simply let it be.

  • Lean in and smell the flower. If you are allergic to flowers you may wish to skip this step or, instead, you can just use a flexible twig to first prod the folds of the flower gently to ensure that it is free of honeybees, which may sting or startle.

  • Again, you may become tempted to pick the flower, justifying the floracide by picturing the flower adorning your sweetheart’s hair or lapel. Continue to resist. If your honeybunch is the sort to manipulate you into murdering flowers so they can cultivate an anachronistic aesthetic, you’re better off just spending the rest of the day staring at this flower while their coffee goes cold waiting for you at the coffee shop.

  • Keep them waiting. Your mother was right about them. Just like this guide is right about flowers.

What is the most beautiful flower? The answer may make you angry.
