Overview
Napa valley and Sonoma Valley are widely considered two of the top American Viticultural areas in California, and all of the United States, with a history dating back to early nineteeth century. Sonoma and Napa Counties' Mediterranean climate makes them the premium wine-grape growing provinces of North America.
Your tour starts at Fisherman’s Wharf in San Francisco, heading north for the first highlight of the tour – the iconic Golden Gate Bridge. Take in the breathtaking views of the San Francisco skyline and Alcatraz Island while riding across the 1.7-mile span of the bridge. The tour continues through the picturesque Marin County, heading further into California’s world-famous wine region of Sonoma and Napa Valley.
Unwind and soak up the stunning scenery while we drive through beautiful vineyards, the most prized wine region of Northern California. Explore three different wineries, each with their very own charm, from small family-run wineries to large estates. The passionate and welcoming staff are eager to share their enthusiasm and knowledge of wine with you, and during an exclusive estate tour you can learn about the traditional and modern wine-making techniques and processes.
At lunch time we make a stop in Yountville or Historic Downtown Sonoma Square with its charming shops, art galleries and a wonderful variety of dining options. Enjoy your time at leisure and relax on a lawn during a picnic, or sample some cheese and wine at one of the local shops before heading on to the next winery.
Enjoy some of the best wine in the world at the various wineries in Sonoma and Napa Valley, with each tasting offering a unique experience that you can only find in Northern California. You will have enough time to explore each winery on your own before or after the tastings, and your tour guide will lead you from winery to winery while providing fun and helpful insights on the way.
After a full day of indulging into the California wine country, simply sit back, relax, and enjoy the scenic ride across the Golden Gate Bridge once more as the sun slowly starts to set into the Pacific Ocean.
