The Frontenac Affair
Some experiences in South Eastern Ontario feel almost hidden, known only to those who seek out beauty and connection. The Frontenac Affair is one of them.
Your day begins by travelling to Sharbot Lake in South Frontenac, where lakes, forests, and rolling hills create some of the region’s most breathtaking scenery. At a celebrated lakeside restaurant, one of Canada’s top chefs shares a tasting of small plates and cocktails inspired by the land and season. From there, you’ll be welcomed at a boutique winery overlooking a lake in Westport, with rustic charm, and vineyard views that stretch to the horizon.
The adventure continues with a private helicopter flight over the 1000 Islands, offering a new perspective on islands, waterways, and timeless scenery. Touching down at a solar-powered craft brewery, you’ll enjoy a beer flight and wood-fired pizza in a relaxed and welcoming setting.
The Frontenac Affair is more than a tour. It is South Eastern Ontario told through its landscapes, its makers, and its stories, that remain with you long after the day ends.

Highlights
Departure
(This experience departs from Kingston, Westport, Perth, Brockville and Gananoque)
Your journey begins with a private pick-up from your accommodation, where your guide will greet you and set the tone for the day ahead. As we make our way into the countryside, you’ll be introduced to the itinerary and the exclusive experiences that await—each thoughtfully curated to surprise, delight, and immerse you in the stories and flavours of South Eastern Ontario
Belong Restaurant & Café
Nestled beside a quiet lake in one of Ontario’s most charming hidden corners, Belong is a place where the kitchen tells stories—crafted by a chef whose reputation precedes him, yet whose focus remains on creating moments, not headlines. Rooted in a commitment to sourcing local and FeastON certified, each dish reflects the landscape and community that surrounds it. The menu shifts with the season, the day, and sometimes the mood—offering an experience that feels both deeply grounded and quietly unforgettable.
Scheuermann Vineyard & Winery
Perched on a hillside overlooking a lake, this boutique winery offers a rustic, romantic escape into the heart of Ontario wine country. Vines stretch over the hills, and the air carries the scent of oak barrels and woodsmoke. The experience is intimate, the pours thoughtfully selected, and the setting—pure enchantment. It’s the kind of place you stumble upon by chance, and remember forever.
1000 Islands Helicopter Tours
There’s a moment—just after lift-off—when the world falls away and the landscape unfolds like a living map beneath you. For thirty unforgettable minutes, you’ll soar above the storied 1000 Islands, tracing the shoreline past fairytale castles, hidden coves, and winding waterways known only to those who’ve seen them from above. Your flight concludes with a landing at a rural craft brewery—unexpected, tucked away, and the perfect place to touch back down.
ArBrū Brewery
Tucked away in the countryside, ArBru is a solar-powered craft brewery where rustic charm meets quiet innovation. Known for its small-batch brews and wood-fired pizza, it offers a warm, unpretentious welcome at the end of an extraordinary day. Hidden in plain sight, it’s the kind of place you wouldn’t expect to land by helicopter—yet it feels like the perfect final chapter.
